Well, here it is all done. Polished, set up, and intonated. The rails on the pickups cleaned up nicely. I wasn’t able to smooth out the truss rod access hole in the pickguard because I couldn’t find the right tip. Do any of you all have one of these guitars? I paid 400 dollars plus 27...

I gave it a “Face Lift”. See my thread.

This is what happens when they don’t teach classical history in schools….

Well it’s now going on 3:30 and I’ve taken it apart and started working on the neck. I also polished the frets with my Dremel and some mildly abrasive metal paste polish on a felt wheel. Here’s some pics before rubbing the paint out by hand and then hitting it with a buffing pad on my drill...

Ah, that Gotoh goodness.

I get months out of the EARTHWOOD phosphor Bronze Medium Light

1985 is still alive!

No, the proper answer is keep the SG and buy this too!

That’s gonna leave a marke. I still have a scar on my finger from when I CUT IT WITH A KNIFE AT AGE 9. IM 55 NOW.

I bought a set of strings.

I had one of those. I paid $399.00 for it.

Yeah, I got it fixed now and was playing it earlier. Those screws are pot metal or something. If It happens again, I will get a better bridge.
