Build date late 88 early 89 per serial number look up. Nice work Dave, AGAIN!
Thank you Dave, great full length strat refresher !
Can't believe how clean that Strat is and how white the neck is. My '88 Strat's neck looks like it's roasted maple now.
Probably this one didn't see the sun very often..
You're doing well to bring us these videos, Dave. Thanks.
Great info ....and a joy to watch ...thanks Dave
Great videos Dave, hope this strat gets to shine the way it deserves to. Keep up the good work putting a smile on our face and educating us at the same time. ✌🤙👍
Ok this is down right creepy yesterday I was struggling setting up my Strat and here you are..
Strat setup is so easy, don't make it too hard by overthinking it!
Snap Dave. This week has been Strat fix time for me too.
After 23 years of faithful faultless service I had to adjust the truss-rod of my Strat for the first time since it left the factory.
Shell 1996 MIJ Anniversay
The slotted nut was still covered in buffing polish when I took the neck off …
The relief had climbed to 0.016”.
It wasn't bad to play but the extra height was affecting tuning on the fretted notes.
More than it normally should.
A quarter turn dropped it to 0.010 !!! Overshot.
Just less than one eight of a turn got it to 0.012/0.013
Curiously the intonation needed a fair bit attention too.
Not something I had expected as it had been fine up till last summer.
She spent about 7 months stored upright in a gig bag, in a friend's house - stable environment, while I moved house.
All's well now but I was surprised at how much she'd shifted compared to the previous 22 years ...
Good Quality control on spotting and working out that E string problem,
Keep up the good work and cracking sarcasm !
You do superb work, thank you for showing us a glimpse at what you do!
Thank you very much!
10:19 Dave nearly lost his eyeballs.
Just got done setting up a "strat,," and, here's Dave, haha! I did mine floating, used Dave's old fret rocker technique😊
Thanks, Dave!
Glad to see the work is still coming in, Davey.
@@DavesWorldofFunStuff They Pay by Bank Transfer, or do you 'Launder Their Money' … ? LoL
Thanks Dave!
A solid wire stretches under load, unless somebody is re-writing physics.
not enough to be significant for a guitar string, but maybe for a rocket ship! ;)
@@freedomination2 Stretches enough to change its tone.
It does but at the point of tension, which for a guitar is at the saddle, tuner peg, or locking nut. So, that is to say a fixed point. When a wire breaks from stretching, its generally always going to be at a fixed point. Guitar strings have pretty good ductility, so there aint much deformation if any when you stretch a string during tuning. I find that string breaks happen when the strings lose their softness and become brittle due to oxidation.
Dave as a subscriber to your Channel that was the best setup you have done to date,hope all is well ,Cheers
Cheers Dave for showing what to do with a strat-trem. I had no idea how to setup those springs at the rear. My partscaster will get the treatment now and i will actually retreive that trembar i had never used. good stuff. please feel free to make more jokes by the way.
And the tension gets higher
I just took a guitar _just like this one @ __8:55_ w/floppy springs and unclipped strings, and shoved it into one of those standard stompbox pedal housings; I call it the Eludium Q35 Non-Electronic String Modulator...
Love your intros too!
The recorder intro is my favorite
@@AndreaAustoni Has the ring of 'Shitty Flute' - another great channel, look it up! Their rendition of Judas Priest's Painkiller is something else!
Love the 3 tsb on those 80’s American Standards.
I like to use bullet strings on my Strat. They sound great. I’ve had troubles with the ball ends. They want to get stuck when I change them. Especially the G, B and high E.
LOLOLOL @ the intro effects!!
Release the claw!
I've got a fever. And the only way to fix it, is it is to BUY MORE STICKERS!
Got the very same axe, with a rosewood fb. Nothing else just saying. Good video boss!
killer intro
Wow. Glad I work on my own instruments
I love it!! “Baffle the Humans.” Thanks!
Hooray! No evil empire ad today!✌️
really good advice on tuning everything to one tuner.
Another good one is if your recording ,tune to the chords in that song
Gotta shake my head when I see two guitarists and a bassist all tuning up from their individual corporate gizmos. Never from each other anymore.
I enjoy listening to your videos while I am doing exactly what you are doing! Literally not one piece of knowledge you share I disagree with. Since I work alone it’s almost like having someone around to talk shop with. Keep up the fine work there sir! “There are no rules, only guidelines.”
Good one today, very dramatic with jeopardy near the end. I wish you could help my 78 strat Antigua.
well best strat setup tutorial ive ever seen. I have a strat just like that but with rosewood finger board. first strat I ever bought for just me at 60 years old and im a les paul player from the 70s till now but I bought this one strat just to learn about strats. bought my son several. just one question. I don't ever use the whammy bar. I hate them, but do you have to adjust the claw if your never going to use the the whammy bar???????
I was thinking like you 26:03 Tusq. 😉 Had one stock on my SGR I used to own That axe come stock with roller trees? I had to upgrade my 3 P- 90 guitar to roller trees
guitar was made at the
Corona Plant (Fender), USA
in 1988 - 1989
If that’s a ‘88 or ‘89 it must have been kept in a vacuum chamber. Beautiful Stratocaster. Mine has a neck tilt too, but it’s 3 bolt neck with a bullet truss rod at the headstock.
That was under somebody’s bed for 30 years. Nice. They don’t make the sunbursts like that anymore, with the bright yellow color. That is a very nice Strat there.
Yay a Strat 🎸
Hi Dave. Can you discuss setting the tailpiece so that strings don't touch the back of the bridge vs a wraparound bridge. Cheers from Cambodia.
Davey!
Hey my brother, i just wanted to say that you rock and I dig the mellow professionalism that comes along with great knowledge, tricks , and of course the laughs. But what is the name of that guitar lubricant? I couldn't see very well on this one . Thanks cheers ✌️🤘
Hey Dave, If you had to fix a strat neck angle, would you use the micro-tilt, or make a wood shim?
Hey Dave, got same looking lube from HD dealer. Its called lubit-8 super oil.
Since it has "HD" on the label, I'd imagine it's a bit pricier than the stuff in a container without that logo.
Nut Sauce brand works for me. Yes, thats what its called. It is expensive for the little tube you get but it has the tiny applicator tip and a little tiny drop goes a long way.. I apply to each nut slot before new strings are laid in the slot.
I believe Dave has a video about how to make your own nut sauce and save some dough.
This is my brain on a whammy bar.
I ran across an intonation routine on youtube, from the evil empire, I think, that did stuff with 3rd and 5th harmonics, across different strings. It confused me...but the explanation was persuasive...hahaha
Yep , locker room humor is usually what it's called.
My favorite flavor of strings is Ernie Ballsack 10-46! Other than my L.P. JR., she gets 11-48 due to open/drop tuning. Any who , that baby matches one of my Teles. They would look really happy together LOL!
Be good David! PEACE
🐉💀👽🎸🎶🎵🌎🌌
I used to play Earnie’s for years, had to change them really often (twice and sometimes three times the week for three guitars) they seem to rust quite quickly wearing down the frets really fast. I changed to elixirs for my jazz guitar and Gibson Pure Nickel for my Reissues and it saves me a lot money. The strings are stable, have a long durability, don’t rust as fast and sound amazing.
EB is my last choice of strings. D’addario & Dean Markley helix are my choices. Depending on which guitar I’m restringing.
All that trem action is sounding like Free Form Guitar (Chicago - Kath).
I have to admit, that to this day, as soon as Dave started talking about intonation from the bench position to playing position, I suddenly felt anxiety. At any moment I expected Scott Groves to take over my computer and deliver one of his frothing at the mouth rants on the subject. To not agree with Scott is undeniable proof of your genetic inferiority. Just ask him!
Ken Hawkins groovy.
Who is Scott Groves? Pardon my ignorance - not trying to be offensive nor "that guy".
@@stephenhookings1985 A relic from the early days of You Tube. VERY opinionated.
I asked this same question to Dave on another video a few days ago....and got spanked. I didn't take it personally, I get Dave's personality quirks. Learning quite a bit from the videos I've seen so far.
@@johnhurtt977 About intonation or Scott Groves?
Hello, new subscribers here! Can you make a tutorial on how to repair chipped edges on pointy guitars like RandyRhoads, Kellies, Eplorers? Love your channel, great content, thanks for what you do!
dave could you mention the feeler guage thickness for the truss rod adjustment-thks
That's the strings I use Ernie ball there great strings on my left handed SX Stratocaster my SX sounds great for a cheap inexpensive guitar
interesting side note, I just bought Ernie Ball strings and the packaging was very different here in the U.S. the ball sacks package is very green. Things that make you go "hummm".
Hmm I've seen Dave have the usual green, pink, purple etc. packaging before.
Maybe these are just super cheapo Ernie balls, or what they send to manufacturers that use their strings?
Multi pack
I happen to really like your facebook Page.. I am fairly new to it, but any time I have had a Guitar related question, I have gotten excellent advice and answers right away from alot of Fantastic People.. Don't be discouraged from the one or two asshats that always say something negative or people that always have to make everything political... You are going to get that anywhere.. Best off to just ignore or delete it. Its your Page and People should follow your rules. Those rules were put in place for a reason.. To help one another and to keep it fun and interesting without the hastles or stressful political bullshit or agendas. It is nice to just have a page dedicated to our instruments, the odd music joke ect.. It is a place for everyone to come together and just get along and leave all the garbage behind.. As you always say.. be Good to one another..
there are no rules, just guide lines.

With regards to the string & pickup heights...are these being set to a 'standard' height?. I guess every player like these to be set as they like them?
Who else wanted him to hit that wang bar again?
I swear, as soon as he walked away that low E said,
"The coast is clear, let's go back☝"
according to the serial # comes back as a 1988 or early 1989 strat. Made by Fuji-Gen Japan.
Mad Magazine!
...always thought trying to keep a strat in tune was a war you couldn't win...
How high should the bridge be floating?? I have mine screwed down but would like to try floating it for shits and giggles.
I can dance a waltz jig to the rhythm of your fret eraser
What size block di you use for the tremelo
wow
I've got a '87 Squire. I'm first guitar.
ok is it just me or did i miss what caused the string to go sharp ...he adjusted the nut and it was still was sharp then it worked ????
Facebook is shit anyway Dave. Don't bother. Nice setup video!
So miss the days of Simple Green & 5 grades of wet & dry on the frets.....way it goes I suppose!
Zennor_man ...plus Never Dull and all of the comedy that “Canadian” beer would provide. 😂
We used to make jokes. We had a sense of humour. That's what we used to do.
Exactly what made me laugh too !
Travel on a scaryplane - except given they helped spread an epidemic into a pandemic I guess they should be renamed ? I love the lack of PC on this channel - say it as it is, bring issues into the open. Great stuff.
Talking of jokes ... Dave said "let's turn it over and go into the back".
We used to make jokes before it was a sin to offend anyone.
What are you doing Dave
Is it just my imagination or did Dave just make it through an entire video without swearing?...
Yes E = Eighty Fallowed by 8 = 1988 L = 60s S = 70s
What size feeler gauge are you using to check string height? Still learning how to do my own setups.
@@DavesWorldofFunStuff How silly of me. Let me rephrase the question. What were you checking with the feeler gauge when you put the capo on the 1st fret?
Sir you are set up genius. Living in Canada Could recommend anyone that could work on a Traynor YCV 80 4x10 combo? I used to love this amp but some douche completely fucked it up. I would pay for shipping I just want it to play as close as possible to new again. Thank you in advance.
Where do you live Carl, I know a few folks in Alberta if you live here. Shipping would be crazy if not local.
Carl call Traynor's tech assistance line they are a fantastic resource, really generously helped me out the one time I ever needed to call them in fifty years of using their products.
Looks like a 1988 American Standard Strat.
Dave, I never realized you had to put up with bitchers and complainers. Like the guy you mentioned who couldn't see you working on the back of the guitar.
Don't these people know you don't have a production staff?
Keep on keepin' on Davey.
Hey Dave (or anyone who knows what they're doing and would like to comment), got a question about the rule - or suggestion... - about having Fender bridge saddles parallel to the deck. Fully agree and understand the reasoning on 6 saddle guitars. On a three saddle bridge however, they have to tilt down at the outsides (strings 1 & 6) don't they? Just to retain the "arc" of the fingerboard radius?
That seems sensible, as the sting height is key there ...
Yes, on a three saddle bridge the outer ends ot the outer two saddles will lean down toward the top of the guitar.
That's what I was taught, match the radius of the fretboard.
On my Tele, with brass saddles, they are all parallel, despite the guitar having a very curved ('65) neck. As for the radius thing, I don't give a flying fart. Maybe I did so more with the old steel, multi-slotted screw-looking saddles, cos the strings don't slip onto the grubscrews on those. Maybe I didn't.
Wow! Sweet guitar! Is it for sale?
Everything is for sale... would even consider a trade.
Khaajit has wares if you have coin
If you have not found a replacement for that lube in a needle point applicator . Check gun supply places , their online stores
"There are no rules,only guidelines."Have you been watching Pirates Of The Caribbean movies Dave.......................?
at least u dont need hand condoms for this one dave
E8+ 5 digest = 1989.
1988-89... see reverb.com/ca/news/how-to-date-a-fender?locale=en-CA
Probably was a wall hanger in some dentists office.
Nope. It was a case dweller and original owner was not a dentist.
@@DESOUSAB What about the second owner? We're they a dentist?
;)
" NO DAVE PLS NO DONT RELEASE THE CLAWWWWWWWW
Man that thing has low mileage!
Dave, man.
Turn the screws backwards until they sit in their thread, before you tighten them - how many times do I have to tell you!!!!!!!!!
Otherwise, thanks again.
You sound a bit ‘flat’ however. I hope you are coping with this pandemic okay.
88-89
Don't tell the people on bookface, but people make jokes about names, I mean look up spoonerisms and malapropisms; that's all it is joke that doesn't target anyone or hurt anyone. Relax
I wonder NOS or left in the closet or hidden under the bed???
We got 4 rescue cats that live under our beds and scratch anything wooden or Tolex ... I guarantee if that had been left under any of ours beds it would be scratch to crap and beyond.
Numero uno!
SlughOmatic No me importa....
2008 someone gets a new guitar as a gift. Tries tuning it up and breaks a string. Puts it away forever. 🤦♂️
1988, someone gets a guitar, get's married, get's a job, has kids, guitar in case. 2020, sells guitar.
The real Q? Is....
Do ball ends sound better than bullet ends? Some real Fender players ONLY use bullet end strings...
And some only use ball end strings...
Both parties claim superior TONE/VOL.
I CLAIM that, I can't hear any difference , but I can hear the complaints when I inform people that their choice of string is twice the $,.. of ball ends. ....
So, I order some brass tubing (3 sizes of internal diameter) and crimp on small pieces to increase...mass? At the ball end, still no difference... but I charge more$ to do it... and yes a few request it, it has one benefit, the strings don't bind up in the tone block as much, and push straight out when you want. Why anyone would want to read this comment, I'm unsure....
"There are no rules," is defacto, a rule. Haha
Also, adding" lube to a nut slot" seems like a contravention of RUclips policy.
I ll show myself out.
Looks like FIRST to me!!
You really look like that one crazy chick LOL!!!
@ Yep, anyone who engages in this juvenile nonsense can be too bright.
Tod Shinerod Wow, bet you're a big hit with the fellas there Gomer.
The video and comment section sounds like a retirement home.
