agent.umbra<p>I found this really nice strap for my guitar. It wasn't cheap, (just over $100USD) but it should last forever, AND it's a pretty good color match. It's leather with all brass hardware. The inside is smooth and doesn't grab my shirt like other leather straps with suede interiors do. It's a perfect buy-it-for-life option if you otherwise like the fit &amp; feel of everyday cotton / plastic straps. <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/StrapLocks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StrapLocks</span></a> coming soon.</p><p>(1/2)</p><p>Made by <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/HangOverStraps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HangOverStraps</span></a> on Etsy. <br><a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/GearSquad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GearSquad</span></a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/guitartech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitartech</span></a></p>
The Tired Horizon<p>8 more now done with the 040 made by Lewitt. Amazing little mic. Another I'm thinking of selling but havent managed to muster the guts to do it.</p><p>This is prolly the best dirt cheap SDC out there. Forget Samson and Behringer.

It wouldn't cause damage but you'll need a setup, adjustment, and custom string gauge to get that to play properly. Let me know if you need since advice on anything.</p>

Yeah poor QC is pretty normal for Fender. Their quality has been declining steadily for decades. I've worked on a million Fenders of all types and years and I would never buy one for myself. This isn't to criticize anyone who has one, anyone who likes them, or anybody who has one that isn't poorly made (or perhaps theirs has been fixed), but there's so many shortcuts they take in manufacturing and so many QC issues that I wouldn't spend my money on one.</p>

agent.umbra<p>I bought this guitar back in 2021 and finally got around to doing some work on it. I've had trouble with the pickups ever since it was new, but haven't really played the guitar much, so it sat largely untouched. I've been playing it a lot recently and still have problems so I decided to rewire it to eliminate that as a possible issue. Spoiler: the wiring ain't the issue here. I have yet another defective Fishman pickup.</p><p>Guitar nerd specs in the replies:</p><p><a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/multiscale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>multiscale</span></a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/guitartech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitartech</span></a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/7string" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>7string</span></a></p>

ZoeOeoZ<p>Just finished fixing this bad boy. 40 years old and a bridge hook broke. Amazingly they still make parts! Thank you Whammy Parts in Reno, NV. It is the tremolo on my very first guitar I bought when I was 16. A Fender Bullet that has been heavily modded and repainted multiple times. An amazing workhorse of a guitar for so many years. It broke over a decade ago and I am just now fixing and restoring it.

cleatsandcode<p>Guitar resto update. It’s all back together. Hardly any new parts so very little recycling or landfill.
