This Hohner The Jack in for a rebuild. Plenty to do on it, starting with a rewire, rebuild of the trem, installation of all components, some fretboard modifications to fit the lock nut. Sounded great afterwards - tonally very versatile, plus a bottom strap button, just in case you wanted to play left handed for a change?!

Got this in for a setup, and was overcome by the amount of static hum it was emitting, but after insulating the cavity’s, and grounding the pickups to it, it was as quiet as the proverbial Christmas mouse!

Some beauties that came in yesterday, after an associate had had issues trying to set them up!

Absolutely love the Jackson, though couldn’t justify the price tag, and the Kramer looks like something Slash might’ve played if he were in Twisted Sister, which in the G’n’R early days, didn’t look too dissimilar😂

Anyway…Rock!!!🤘

Picked up this Ibanez and Vox amp while in Spain for €150! The guitar was in a state - no strings, major dents to the finish, and seller had no leads, so couldn’t demonstrate it worked, but still worth a punt!

Had the bright idea of removing the neck to fit it all into luggage, but having unpacked it back at home discovered the baggage handlers had taken a dim view of me trying to avoid the oversized luggage fee, and had snapped the neck!

Needless to say, I contacted Ryanair who said that unless I’d have checked my luggage at arrivals, and obtained a PIR code, they couldn’t help?! I mean, who checks their luggage at arrivals? Me, from now on!

Anyway, it’ll give me something to do, and it was the pickups I really wanted😂

California Strat Ultra in with intonation issues. The customer requested heavy gauge strings, which overpowered the trem springs in the back, but as he doesn’t use the trem, I added another trem spring to counter the tension of the heavy strings. Setup complete, strings lowered as low they’ll go without inducing buzz, the intonation sorted, electrics lubed, and a good polish, jobs a good un!

The first Parker Fly I’ve ever “worked” on! The customer sent me the owners manual, and the versatility of this guitar blew my mind!

To be honest, when I first heard of them, in the mid 90’s, I just thought they were just fancy looking, pretentious pieces of I don’t know what? But, having scanned the owners manual, I was gobsmacked at what they were capable of!

Anyway, the reported issue was about intonation issues on the 12th fret using midi, but unfortunately, not having midi, had to arrange to try and resolve the issues at the customers house.

We tried everything to resolve them - pushing the bridge saddle back, lowering the action, tightening the trem springs, but nothing we did prevented the the low E from sharpening at the 12th fret?

If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know?
