Spot on, I’ll let ‘em hang up on the rack for a few weeks under tension. Then, I’ll start taking measurements and starting from there. It absolutely needs to settle if you want super low action.
Visted Thunder Road Guitars in Seattle yesterday. Came upon two very special specimens of history. These are two BC Rich guitars made in 1983, as per the hand stamped Serial Number designation. These are Neal Moser era instruments, as per several features. Neal and I are friends, so I texted...
My method is the same, but I go to the next tuner for length, and go one lap over the top of the string/hole, then the rest under to lock the string in place and direct the wrap downwards. Doing it this way allows me to eliminate a string tree on most guitars, depending on the tuners used.
Just the components of the 1176 alone, even with comp settings not set as such, the1176 just makes everything put through it cut through nicely, especially vocals and acoustic guitars.

Next on my list.
The Key is good for what it was intended for, but this is an improvement upon it.
The Key has a more narrow diameter bolt, and it doesn’t like to be tightened under tension. As such, my method has been to extend the saddle to the longest setting back, then to slowly loosen The...
That’s awesome, love the Larry Carlton inspired theme.
I’m wanting to do a similar build with the trem, and 24.75” scale, but with single coils still, this gives me some inspiration to follow through now.
The JJ is my fave, but the BE100 is right in there as my 2nd.
The BE100 is right in there in EVH territory, being the best of hot rodded Plexi, Bogner Uber, and ch 3 of a Deizel VH4 with the gain pulled back quite a bit.
I have Pro Tools, and in collaborating with someone on another DAW, I am trying to "Screen Record" from my Pro Tools session, with my interface audio as the output source.
In doing so, I capture all that I want to visually from the edit/arrange window, but when I play back to video file, the...
