Re: what a difference

Better than a freshly-washed car! I enjoy the process if cleaning and re-stringing.

Re: what a difference

That's great Badeye! Wish my renovation went as well... I put some 'new' strings on my guitar but they sound terrible and I'm afraid it affected my action. Anybody know if that's possible that it could have raised my strings? I changed then one at a time...

If you put a heavier gauge string on it, the increased tension may have increased the bow in the neck.

Someday we'll win this thing...
