The nut height, though an important aspect of a set up, wouldnt have anything to do fretted buzz issues. As mentioned I would check those first...

.010 should be plenty of relief. I run mine with less. I wear frets flat from bending especially in the area I'd measure relief so I have to take...

Just aesthetics in my book. Of course its your guitar and if a nice pocket fit is important to you, a major disappointment imo. :( [IMG]

IDK, for me it beats thinking to much, lol.

Lol, sorry to say its a $35 neck to match the $35 body. That said the frets are pretty darn level, it feels great and looks good to boot! [IMG]

$35 candlenut wood body. Less than 2 lbs. Sounds good plugged in and I do like the grain after 20 coats of "tung oil"... I guess something akin to...

No it doesnt appear too difficult. Then again I'd have to level, crown and polish them- Im stubborn that way. I know the amount of work it takes...

Wait a second...you just finished a fret job and dropped it off for minor stuff? o_O

OP stated the owner replaced the saddles with Graphtechs.

These days?- all of them.

Looks great! Taking notes. I know I'd want to cut(or gring) the tangs back if I do mine.

True but only down where its "functional" so to speak. Higher up, past the 12th fret, a better break angle occurs as the relief is decreased and...

Its a Northern Flicker. Fairly large for a woodpecker. Kind of interesting your just as apt to see them foraging on the ground as in a tree....

If you look at the entire picture you will aee it does- maybe not what you would call directly. The geometry is affected . Yes- less bow, raise...

Welcome!

Im hard on frets. I get around that by rotating guitars a lot. If I played the same guitar for a year the frets would look flat in certain areas....

I so want to give this a go but with stainless. Probably should start out with NS.

Following the thread. Nice work so far! No experience yet with refretting. That said I am intrigued by the simplicity of the hammer in process but...

Thanks! Hope your healing up well and quickly. :)

As a life long mechanic Ive used my hands to make a living for 42 years now so Ive never been afraid to tinker. Made some mistakes along the...

Honestly its just too much money at $2400. I could deal with the painted headstock or swapping out the pick ups but I'd rather buy a Bullet strat...

Thanks! 6 actually as one isnt in the pic. Good thing Im my own tech. Honestly they arent much different than a floating 2 point trem to set up.

Whaaaattt?..no way - Super(pointy)strats! RG please! [IMG]

Because the bow in the neck lifts the strings. You adjust the action with said amount of bow- say .010". The break angle, higher up, is now less...
