Hey fallen, do you live in Canada?

Yes. What gave me away?


I sold an Ibanez just like that one to a guy in Canada via a transaction on Harmony Central a few years ago.  Wondering if it was you.

No not me. Bought mine new a long time ago. Was doing a lot of downtuning at the time on a Les Paul copy. The Ibanez was good for that, simple and intonates properly at super low tunings. I'll do some work on it this weekend to see if I can get it to balance out.

Tried moving the strap button to one of the neck bolts and now the guitar sits perfect. Huge difference.

Just need to hit the home depot for a screw with a some extra length to account for the strap button.

Good tip. Thanks justinhedrick.

Send me that EB0. I may be able to save it. Unless it's a failed previous repair. that's a metric fuckton of work...

I work for Beta Basses : D

No previous repair. Pretty nasty break. I tossed it onto my drummers kit for the sound of it. Asked Gibson out of curiosity as to what they would charge....about 2grand to replace it. So now I am scavenging eBay for a similar bass and will swap out the neck. Once I do that I will send it your way...

Naw, you got all the pieces of the break? You can't just "swap" a set neck out, it's way more involved than that, and worth way more than what Gibson quoted you going that route... If you have all the chips, and shit, I can save it and you'd have a hard time noticing it was broken...

Furthermore buying a new one + the labor would put you well over two grand, again.

It could be spliced fairly easy, matching the finish would be the clusterfuck part. I've never done it, but I'm about to start work on a Studio with a similarly bad break, that'll be my first splice.

Love that Longhorn with P-style pups.

I think I remember that Hondo Longhorn from the old forum? Reid from Deadbird/ex-Rwake has a battle-scarred one, heavy as hell but still sounds great (he probably switched pickups x154 times)

You know those girls whose looks might seem a bit unusual, but then they open their mouths to speak and suddenly it all falls into place and they're the sexiest girl you've ever been in a room with?

Brilliant!

You should be writing ad copy or maybe I should hire you for smooth pick-up lines.

I love unusual looking chicks.  And guitars.

I don't use the acoustic very often though, it's very entry level quality so it has tuning issues from the fifth fret and higher it gets even worse.
