The return of an old gal...

Hey Alvin, is that the one that Stephan had for a while?

Damn, is it EVER nice.

I need a White guitar

I can see what you mean, but I think it's an optical illusion. If it's the chrome bit under the locking bolt you're on about. The angle of the shot and the light make it look like a wedge under it. Doesn't look like there is much room for pulling up.

Judging from the picture, the chrome piece (called the fine tuner adjustment spring) is close to hitting the wood if the trem is pulled up.

But the main thing here is the mis-adjusted fine tuners. Notice how the G, B and E fine tuners in particular are all the way down. That will force the chrome piece closer to the wooden ledge.

Unlock the nut, adjust all fine tuners to middle position and tune the guitar by using the tuning machines. Then lock the nut and you're all set.

Thanks for clearing the doubt Shobet. I think I can now see what you mean. It does look like a wedge doesn't it?

Do you see six of them?

Yep, I fixed that problem. That is an old pic from when I got her the first time.

Thanks slash! Yes, she is staying with me this time.
