unreal77 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Hi kids, it's me again: Last saturday I finally got my P93 and put it through the rigors of my 12 pedal setup and fender vibrolux... It rocked. It handled my big muff beautifully and my delays very well. Now, I think this guitar came with 09's that I will change to 10's, and there was some buzzing on the b string. Did you guys sent it inmediately for a setup? I dont care about chinese, korean, blah blah blah. ''This guitar is great. period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JefferySmith Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 My local setup guy takes 1-2 months to complete it. I would like to get it set up by a pro. Need to find one. Action could be a tad lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Summerisle Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Now' date=' I think this guitar came with 09's that I will change to 10's, and there was some buzzing on the b string.[/quote'] 09s on a semi makes no sense to me. Before sending it in for a set-up, I'd whip those 09s off and stick a set of D'Addario 10s on it. You might be pleasantly surprised. Congrats on your new guitar, by the way.

tulsaslim Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I've been using 09s on my semis for 25 years. They're just fine, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unreal77 Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Quick question and thanks: Will it affect the guitar to put 010's without a proper setup or it doesnt matter? I want to do that with my thinline also... Thanks again guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to do that with my thinline also... Thanks again guys. The P93 should have shipped with 10s when it was brand new. Assuming that you bought it used, chances are the previous owner just stuck a set of 09s on it without having it set up anyway. I wouldn't worry too much about moving from 09s to 10s in terms of stress on the guitar. It's not like you're moving up to 13s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freak show Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Just a quick question for all involved in the string gauge discussion... Could a hollow bodied guitar like the one in question handle 11's, or would that be to much tension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighter strings seem to produce far less sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L1Picker Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I run 11's on my P93, and other semi-hollow bodied guitars, and flatwound 12's on my hollow bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Slight nut adjustment (maybe) and Truss Rod...otherwise you shouldn't have any trouble with 11's. All my Gretsches have 11's, my Gibson's and Fenders, all have 10's on them. Only very minor adjustments were made on any of them, and most needed none...or, at least no more so, than I do anyway...for seasonal adjustments due to weather changes, etc. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie brown Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 My P-93 was great, right out of the box....(that was another "amazement" to me)! What "tweaking" I did..was just for me... It was even In Tune, when I recieved it...amazingly enough! Came in a cardboard "Epiphone" box, inside another cardboard box, with precious little protection, too! THAT, I was not happy about, but luckily...it was just fine! CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
