Here are some pictures of frets - fretboard edge is looking pretty rough…
Let me know if there is a better angle to take pictures at.

High fret
I have been tweaking my guitar action for the last week or so. Last night, I set the relief to be quite flat (less than .006 at 12th with 1st and 24th fretted). Was very surprised that there is little to no buzz anywhere, save for a sitar (basically dead) at the 3rd fret on the high E. I took a cred...

Re: Saddle threading stripped
Was going to suggest helicoil- exactly what these are meant for. Just watch that the coil isn’t too tall.

Saddle threading stripped
Hey all, this is my first post here, but have been lurking for some time. I have a 2011 Mojo (trans red) that I recently setup. While setting the intonation, I found that the threading for the low E saddle was completely stripped - screw just sitting in there. Would you recommend that I pick up a ne...
