I have a set of Gotoh SGS510Z mini Locking tuners and they're not very smooth to the feel when turning. Does anyone have any experience lubricating locking tuners like these with dry graphite lube? Thank you!

So - finally after a few days - did anyone find anything in the ChatGPT discussion that they'd call false or inaccurate?

In my experience it has been a bit more selective than that - in that it attempts to weed out the garbage. Sometimes it's not as effective as it could be - when it comes to being accurate - but I suspect it is improving with time and continued training by it's 'human' team. The "concise" part I...

So - did you find anything that you'd like to correct in the discussion?

I've been finding some old unpublished pieces that I forgot about. Here's a short snippet of my Ovation Adamas II - tuned down to B. Direct line from the pickups in the saddles for recording - no mic.

Here's a piece I wrote on my oldest Warmoth strat - unplugged over the course of weeks - entering the ideas as they came up into MuseScore and then after finalising an arrangement - exported the midi - imported midi to Cakewalk by Band Lab - then added bass and drums. The chart is attached if...

Thank you!

Thank you! I really appreciate your support. Happy Holidays to you and your family! Steve

Well - you don't 'need' one - but if you bought one (or more) it would sure help me get a toe hold in the market. 8.5" X 11" is a great size for lyrics - or journaling - passing our ideas down to the next generation etc.
