Hi, I've got an issue with my refined fly saddle piezo's (ball bearing type) so if anyone has any replacement parts I would be very interested in buying them before I resort to replacing the whole thing with a graphtech. Doesn't need to be the whole saddle, could just be the individual string elemen...

Hey @mmmguitar, Thanks for the suggestion. I'll definitely ask around on here for a spare part, as it would for sure be simpler to replace the one than the whole saddle. I can't ask on Facebook though because I don't have an account

So I've now tried some new strings (d'addario), compressed air and cleaning the saddle with deoxit and a toothbrush, none of these produced any kind of change in the volume of the string so I think it's going to have to be replacing the saddle. I can't find any individual elements for the refined fl...

Members of the Line 6 Variax community have anecdotally reported coated strings as interacting unpredictably with saddle elements. That's interesting. I suppose I will buy some non coated strings and try the G just to rule that out. However, I also fear that signs are pointing to some issue with th...

If the element is not seated right in the saddle, or if the string is not pressing against the part of the saddle that rests on the element, then you might experience a drop in volume Ok that makes sense, I've tried to reseat the string a few times but I will put a new string on just in case to see...

Hi all, thanks for the suggestions, I gave it some compressed air but everything looked solid and it didn't seem to make much of a difference. I changed the strings when I first got it so it has some new elixir nanoweb 9's on it. I suppose I could try replacing the G again, but is there really a rea...

Hi! I'm new here, having just purchased a 2005 black refined fly. Overall it's in pretty good condition, amazingly the vibrato arm actually stays in place ;) but I have one strange issue, the G string piezo seems quieter than the other strings. It's not distorted or otherwise sounding "wrong&qu...
