Great stuff Ken as usual. Would be good to see you do more mods and upgrades on existing instruments 😀 That soldering... as Dave Reaume says 'amateur tampering'!'
Nice!! Loving the new ash strat too! Rock on Ken!
David LaValley awesome
That's a cool tuner you're using! ;) Holy shit! That was some bad soldiering lol I can't believe it even conducted! Rock on Ken!
Randy Schartiger , Yeah that tuner looks familiar doesn't it? LOL
Thats more like a NO NO Cort nuno cort guitar !! he he he :P great vid & work as always Ken !! :)
pick ups are really bad on N1 I notice after many years when i bough second guitar, I replaced mine as well but nut big differece, will replace again
i got a same guitar like yours
I was a huge fan of Nuno's playing, but not to the point I followed all his gear and guitar models like I did other players (Vai, VH, Satch, Bratta, etc).... I guess I was wrong, but I thought all the Washburn Nuno models had that weird neck joint that extended into the upper cutaway?
and yes, that old solder looks like silver boogers LOL
Bird turd cold solder joints anyone.. Buyer Beware @ GC..
Slick boxes to put junk pickups in..
ROCK ON!! Gary/Hk
Honest wear, or what Fender might call authentic or natural relic-ed...
Does anyone know how to adjust the trust rod on the N1. I have one but the trust rod is in a very awkward position that doesn't allow me to get to it because the pickup is in the way. Any advice would be awesome. \m/
My reply reaches you one year later so I hope it will help you :
You should find a small plastic cover that covers the access to the truss rod...
It's true that the neck humbucker is in the way so you'll have to lower it so that your allen wrench can get into the truss rod...
Because the truss rod access is at the end of the fingerboard turning it towards the treble strings will tighten it whereas turning it towards the bass strings will loosen it...
If you still can't reach the truss rod even with the neck humbucker all the way down you might have to remove the neck just to access it very much like the old Fenders...
Have a nice day 😁
That soldering looked like bird poop
Do you call your heat gun Edward II?
tallthinkev , not gettin' whatcha mean...
You have heat gun which kicks ass. Edward II was killed by something very hot going up his ass!
I'll buy the nuno pups off of you. Lmk
I don’t solder enough to be an expert but can do a much better job than whoever soldered those old pots.
Fucking shit factory wire.
