Fender Acoustic FA-135ce Big Problems FIXED! EP 446
Просмотров 487 часов назад
Entry level guitar that needed tons of help for a beginner. We made this one playable! A worthy investment. A poorly set up guitar will not encourage a beginner to play. Do yourself a favor. If you bought someone a new instrument to learn to play on, go the distance and have it set up properly so that they will WANT to learn how to play!

    Do you think you should not be able to feel the fret ends at all with your finger, or just really smoothly rounded and close to the binding?

    • @stringmanguitars4329
      @stringmanguitars4329 День назад

      Smoothly rounded close to the binding. I think the only way you avoid that is with those brands that install rounded recessed frets like Sire or with Gibson with the fret nibs.

    I got an Ibanez Talman TCY10E on the cheap a few years ago. I call it my Front Porch guitar. Just for fun and practice and I do like it. Replaced the plastic bridge pins with mahogany. Did a decent set-up. She does have pretty nice turners. I do need to shave the bridge a bit.

    I owned a Roland Micro Cube modeling amp for many years. It is one of, if not THE most awesome practice amps ever. I loved it. I sold it about 3 years ago to a very good friend for him to give to his daughter as a Christmas present. I just had finished setting up her Epiphone Les Paul (added some nice upgrades too), that had sat untouched for a while. We added a new case, strap, cords, books and all together that was her Christmas gift from her father. Together her interest in playing was renewed and she is now an awesome guitarist. Her singing is awesome too. Remember the name Sophie. She may be famous someday soon.

    I thought PRS😮 was building high end domestic units and also contracting with chinese factories for their affordable lines. Much like Fender. I heard this from a PRS tech video. Here is a quote from PRS: Private Stock, Core, S2, and Bolt-On instruments (including the Silver Sky, Fiore, CE and DW Signature models) are produced by our dedicated teams of craftspeople in our factory in Stevensville, MD. SE Solid-body and Semi-Hollow instruments (including the SE Silver Sky, SE Zach Myers, and SE Custom 22 Semi-Hollow) are produced by our dedicated partners in the Cor-Tek Surabaya, Indonesia factory. SE Acoustic & Hollow-body instruments are produced by our dedicated partners in the Cor-Tek Dalian, China factory

  • @johnwilson7809
    @johnwilson7809 15 дней назад

    Like mine, the neck pickup is MUCH lower volume than the bridge pickup. But you can only raise the neck pickup a very small amount. And you can't lower the bridge pickup much because the cover hits the strings (the cover moves with the pickup). So apparently Rick wants the bridge pickup MUCH louder than the neck pickup?

    I bought a Mexico special as b stock and it took me a month to get it playable. When I got it. None of the strings even rang because of bow in the neck. It was a mess and I almost sent it back but it only cost €450 and i loved the small size and the sound of the pickups. Pickup switch also had bad soldering. Once i got it playable it was great but I did wonder if it was sent back because it originally came that way from the factory?

    • @stringmanguitars4329
      @stringmanguitars4329 17 дней назад

      Not sure. You do give up a bit when you buy Made in Mexico. The old phrase “You get what you pay for“ certainly applies to guitars as to everything else in life. Glad you got it sorted. Nearly everything can be made playable. Thanks for watching.
