Re: GK-3 install/tape residue
Hello, Lori. Does anyone out there have any experience with this type of install. Is it stable? can it be removed without damaging the finish of the guitar? Though the tape Roland supplies should be safe for your Fly's finish, I remember it being lower tack than the roll of M3 mounting tape I have (...

Re: Squeaky Trem
Thanks Marc. I have a spare 10 spring so I’ll stick it in there and see if it handles. Might do the trick. In 3 weeks when I’m back! Did you ever get a chance to investigate this further, by chance? I was going to add the "SpringIssues" hashtag, then realized we never narrowed down the so...

Re: Output Jack Replacement
Hey I noticed the output jack on my 94 Fly Deluxe is a bit loose, it's so loose that my cable falls out sometimes. I think soldering in a new jack might be something easy enough for me to handle, is there a brand of output jack that I can buy that is similar in size to the original jack that these ...

Re: Bridge refinish
+1 to Pat's request. And in case it's more than just my browser extensions preventing it from being displayed: Here's the Amazon product he linked to . Based on the reviews, the product seems to be strictly for chemically dying fresh-cut, non-oxidized aluminum. Weren't the Fly bridges finished in a ...

Re: 2011 Trans Honey Supreme
Don't sell this. Unless you are retiring. Way to much work went into it. AND its a beautiful swiss army knife of a sort. Thanks for saying so. I'm not retiring - Just hoping to declutter a bit before relocating in a few months. I'm not a collector or someone who otherwise fetishizes guitars, so muc...

Be happy to take it off your hands lol.

But the disclaimer I’ve been telling anyone who asks is that Patzag gets first ...

Koks2255 , if your electronics look like this: 72383EA8-3916-454A-B832-4E34C3D9091D.jpeg then relocating components will require soldering jumper wires to the terminals of the ribbon cable assembly. Though straightforward to do, many are squeamish due to the delicate nature of the old parts. You wo...

Re: Nitefly Saddle Ball Bearings?
They sound great and hopefully eliminate the ball bearing problem. I certainly hope so; with no bearings to worry about, anymore.

Re: “What’s This Worth?” Thread
the $10,000 he’s referring to is primarily the hours of hand labor involved from skilled craftspeople and not materials—and also that more than half of the production cost of the Fly, according to Ken Parker, went into the finish. Indeed. My fallible memory recalls the context for that quote being ...

Re: “What’s This Worth?” Thread
Strandberg have been increasing their prices in the EU at least. They are even selling NOS guitars marked down by 15% that are hundreds of euros more expensive than they were 3 years ago when production ceased. Yeah; I don't know what that brand's future is. When they announced the cost-cutting mea...
