MorrisrownSal Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hey BBG. I am in a place where the guitars are hard to pick up as of late. trying to clear my head. anyways... I do have somewhat of a tech question. Nearly all of my guitars to date have had compensated saddles. My new Gibby SJTV does not. Whenever I cap, which is often, I find myself tweaking the tuning. It is worse with certain brands of strings if that makes sense. I am wondering if anyone has had this problem, and if switching to a Colosi bone compensated saddle has helped? Seems to be the B and high E strings. Maybe this deserves its own thread.... Come to think of it I will make it its own thread, so need to reply to the issue here.

If you dont mind me asking did you use the dental floss and naphtha technique to remove it? I used patience , dental floss and some careful , gentle application of a blow dryer.....oh wait , that was my wedding night. ! But seriously that IS how I took the pickguard off my J45 without any difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously that IS how I took the pickguard off my J45 without any difficulty. Lol. Yeah ,same here except the blow dryer. I probably could've sped it all up with a blow dryer , but I just sawed away with the floss ( how annoying is it when it keep snapping !) And when I was 3/4 through I got bored and just gently lifted it off the last part by hand. Easy-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
