When Stratocaster Nuts Drive You Nuts - Keeping The 6-Screw Fender Tremolo In Tune:

Oh yeah, Robert. Now you know the value of the lesson you have learned where the struggle to remedy the issue added to your mental toolbox. You now have a measure of the experience ingrained into your DNA for having had to deal with this flaw in the build and can add technique and theory of a well cut nut to your arsenal. AND It did not cost $200. I will now like you to make a Brass nut to duplicate this one for when it comes time to swap out the worn one this will soon become.

Had the tech not told me the Gotoh stuff was "cheap Jap junk" I would have had him do it...TBTH I felt like it was a little closed minded.

The Wind Cries Mary - Jimi Hendrix Cover

A down-n-dirty, home studio production of the Jimi Hendrix classic. I am playing all instruments except drums. All guitars and vocal tracks were cut in a single take, good or bad...

IMPORTANT NOTE:

I was told by the local guitar tech that the Gotoh SD-91 Vintage Press-In Bushing Style Tuners were "cheap Jap junk" and I simply did not agree with this ideology. After checking them for movement with a dial indicator, I saw absolutely zero movement in the tuners.

Well, I just heard our lead guitar player quit, so now I gotta transition to cover all his parts.

@heltershelton - you should complete Little Wing. It's very, very good!!!!!!

That is weird, Helter. I am in Maryland and you in Texas. It plays for me fine when I go to you tube for it. I guess Texas really is a whole separate deal than America is. I just tried clicking on the link in my post above and it does the same as it did for you, Unavailable. WTF
