Re: Pickup switch replacement / upgrade?

I did the switch upgrade to my 2004 Mojo as the original switches were becoming unreliable. I bought both the Electroswitch and C&K switches and ended up installing the Electroswitches (from Allied) even though they are noticeably bigger - they had holes in the tabs making easier for my limited ...

Re: Pickup switch replacement / upgrade?

Just went for it. It seems to work. However the diagram is different from the wiring in my Mojo and i have a leftover ground on the Mag 3 way. Is that expected? Used this: https://flyclone.com/download/file.php?id=71&sid=23135de2b716b0697fd53266a1afe0f2&mode=view How have the Allied switche...

Re: the Anatomy of a Fly

Greetings - I have a 2004 Fly Mojo and 2008 Fly Artist. I've read that many refined Fly owners upgrade the pots and switches. Can anyone provide links for the correct pots (3) and switches (2)? The switches on my Mojo especially have become problematic.. Thanks~

Nice thread title, too. I knew immediately what you meant. The Police has always been a great band for guitar.
Thanks - yes, Andy Summers is one of my faves

Re: Fly Artist Setup

Congrats on the artist, great score- love mine! For the paint chips on the side of the neck, use a sharpie to blend the color and then put a little ca (super) glue over it. You can gently sand and polish the glue out to be nearly invisible (per YouTube vids), or just try to apply as smoothly as you...

Re: Fly Artist Setup

For the intonation, check for leaning bridge posts, where the bridge will sit a little too close to the neck. There’s a really awesome guide available :D should you need to address leaning posts. Also check that the spring tension is set properly, this can also cause intonation issues. Thanks billy...

Re: Fly Artist Setup

the break angle behind the nut looks fine .. it's almost as if the tuner is shifted a bit too far to the right on the headstock ..

what is CA glue?

Re: Fly Artist Setup

thanks for the info VJ - no, fretboard lifting that I can see. What do you use to fill and touch up those spots with? I agree, the general build quality on my early-2004 Mojo is much better than the 2008 Artist. I thought about filing the nut for 10's to see if that helps move things into place a bi...

Re: 2011 Trans Honey Supreme

I've noticed some chipping on the edge of the neck around the 3-4 frets on the Low E side (see photos) - not sure if this is causing into my issues or not. And I don't know what others steps I can take to remedy this - any suggestions would be helpful. I got it for under 2k .. the paint chipping on...

Re: 2011 Trans Honey Supreme

and yes - I own a Carvin Holdsworth "Fat Boy" - the neck is huge! so much so that the guitar is unbalanced and tilts to the floor neck side if you're not holding it ..

Re: scratchy piezo ..

I found the solution (pun intended) - sprayed and cleaned between the ball bearings and under the saddle and now all is working just fine!
