It would shield the wood from EMF and possibly shield the player from having groupies. 😀

This is a common problem, but the fix definitely doesn't involve attacking the truss rod with vice grips. I recommend consulting a professional before you destroy the guitar. You seem to have a constant supply of instruments needing repair. Are you doing this for other people, or buying and flipping them after you've had a go with them?

Why do $3000+ mass produced guitars cost $3000+?
Grant Harding replied to EmgEsp's topic in Electric Guitars
I agree that Gibsons are way over priced. I'm thinking Anderson, where they use CNC to shape the guitars perfectly, then master craftspeople do the rest. Then they leave them set up for a week or more then tweak them before they ship. -

Grant Harding replied to EmgEsp's topic in Electric Guitars
I'm guessing you mean like Anderson and Suhr? 1) CNC is expensive 2) Even with the big shaping done with CNC, there's still a huge amount of master-grade skilled labour required to make a top end guitar 3) Great wood is also expensive 4) Why would anyone take the risk of building a guitar factory for razor thin profit margins -
Gosh - you sound amazing! Jazz must be really hard with those clean tones and such!

Obsolescence is a pain, but that's just the way it goes. New processors and better technology enable developers to create cool new stuff and they aren't going to not do something because an old computer can't run it. If you truly can't afford to ever upgrade your computer I feel for you, but if you're just being obstinate I understand that too. Glad you've made it back!

It's the acoustics that are at risk. When they stay overly hydrated for long periods they suffer problems. I always keep mine in their cases and keep some desiccant packs in there.

Sounds decent through $10,000 worth of gear. I think you did a great job of the review for the price. 😎 -
What will happen if i plug a cabinet into the wrong ohm setting?
Grant Harding replied to mbengs1's topic in Amps
For the 4 ohm output setting I suggest using a 4 ohm cabinet. Why go 16 ohms? Maybe try 4 x 16 ohm cabs hooked up in parallel? -
I can't figure out what sort of incredible conversation were you hoping for with your amazing insight. Add some interesting acoustic guitar content maybe? Without that it's just someone wandering into an old bar insulting the old dudes that are still keeping the place in business. I always try to be nice to people that show genuine interest in the topics at hand.
