Members 's mel gibson Posted April 12, 2007 Members Share Posted April 12, 2007 Maybe you should start your own little lawsuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mnhhngbfs Posted April 12, 2007 Members Share Posted April 12, 2007 next time you buy a pack of stings buy 2 loose strings extra (like if you're getting a set of .09's get a .11 gauge string for the e and a .14 for the b)it will probably counter act the tension differences. maybe take it in to a shop and get an opinion on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mamberg Posted April 12, 2007 Members Share Posted April 12, 2007 maybe I'm stoopid or something, but what does neck angle have to do with string tension?? for a given gauge, for a given scale length, once it's tuned, it's at the same tension, right?? how else could you have these tables that show string tension for a scale length/gauge. It never mentions neck angle as a variable?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarNed Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 ummm.. is that YOU walter?!?!?!Heh. He's trying to get out from under the "HC Brick Wall" title. As Chief Troll, I encourage him to revert to his "true" identity, embrace the title, and return to his proper role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sudds Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 I'd get in touch with Gibson about it, see if they can do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WestPunX Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 ^ It's a Tokai...Gibson wouldn't care even if the guitar turns into a monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GarysBlues Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 Not much anyone could do with a Twisted neck. If indeed that is the issue! Aside from replacing the neck? Tokai's early 80's MIJ are getting more and more expensive and in demand by Gibson players. There early[before 1985] LS-50's and up have Long neck tenon's, and match up very closely Spec wise to 59 Les-Pauls. More so than production line Gibson's! But you have to look them over VERY carefully. I JUST sold one for $800. They are not going cheap. And the fellow whom bought it fron me, was VERY HAPPY to have found and purchased it. He'd been playing PRS McCarthys and wouldn't buy another Gibson. He was just very disappointed. He felt that it was either a 59RI or the early Tokai's?
