Re: "Bullwinkle" guitar hanger

The guitar stand I use - same as yours - came with a pair of spacers to make the neck opening smaller - as if to fit a banjo. It is small enough to hold my Fly in place without bullwinkle. The tuner rests on the grip and holds the guitar up. I'll put up a photo when I get a chance.

An Homage to Ken's Archtop work

I stumbled on this ...

I immediately thought "ripoff" but very soon realized this was a work of love, not thievery, and credit was given where it is due.

Beautiful instruments.

Easy with that ... easily broken!

Re: E/A String Piezo Low Output P38

I don't have a P 38 but based on past piezo experience, I would check the soldering of the Piezo element to the summing plate. In my limited experience, this could be where the problem could be coming from. The other points to check are the soldering point at each saddle.

Well, I guess it happened. :shock: After thinking about it for a long time (and even posting about it here a while ago), being too lazy to make a two day trip to the closest shops stocking the brand for testing, and finding absolutely none whatsoever on the used market in my city or area, I ordered...

Re: Electronic issue

Your jack is probably recessed too far into the guitar. The collar has to be screwed in a bit to allow the jack to travel all the way in. Open the backplate to prevent the jack from rotating and ripping the ribbon cable as you tighten the collar. As needed, adjust the nut inside to ensure proper pos...

Re: How worried should I be?

Okay I went to see the guitar and things got interesting. I noticed right away the frets looked different than other fly's I'd seen and the were also worn down which is weird for ss frets. I quickly realised someone actually refretted this with normal nickel frets that have tangs! The guitar actual...

I think the guitar was properly priced for a near-mint refined. The new price seems inflated.
