Oct 22, 2009 · 789. LocationSouthgate, MI USA. Posted October 22, 2009. Quote. These guitars are produced under the Gibson/Baldwin Music Education Program (or something to that effect). They're beginner-grade instruments. The funny thing is' date=' so were the '50s Juniors, where "Junior" = music studends/kids.
Dec 1, 2008 · Posted December 1, 2008. I would recommend Elixir light gauge strings. I prefer the Elixir Phospher Bronze Nano's but he may like the Elixir 80/20 nano's better. I recommend them for several reasons... they sound excellent and they last a very long time. Also, they are a coated string which may very well be eaiser on his fingers than uncoated ...
Jul 27, 2018 · The Gibson Lounge. The $60 Maestro SG. I posted a few weeks that Walmart had these guitar packs on blowout at $56 plus tax for the black version. Anyway got it in a few weeks ago but I was traveling through Mexico for a couple of weeks. So here are my impressions: Headstock is very much shaped like a Gibson, I have seen some Maestros ...
Sep 19, 2021 · 3.2k. Posted September 19, 2021. You can use a Bigsby B5 (paired with a Vibramate V5-ST to avoid irreversible modifications and fit the large pickguard). The Dusenberg Les Trem replaces the stop bar. Similar to the Bigsby and Vibramate, you can get a Dusenberg Tremola and Tremola adapter. Quote.
Jan 27, 2011 · You need a pair of needle-nose pliers to adjust the action. The picture you included shows the screws. With the needle nose pliers. crank the screw clock-wise to lower the bridge and counter clock-wise. to raise it. Tension wise it’s easier to adjust the screws with the strings. somewhat loose.
Sep 19, 2022 · Gibson Brands. Gibson USA. Maestro alternative. I’ve had a Gibson SG 61 reissue with the awful sideways vibrola for over a year now. I’ve been exploring replacement options like a maestro or a Bigsby B7 as both would either hide or mostly hide any screw holes from the sideways vibrola.
Mar 5, 2010 · Posted March 5, 2010. Hi guys, we have some members of our forum in italy who assert that Gibson guitars are not entirely made in US anymore....so I decided to open this 3D in order to have an idea about this from the rest of the world. Specifically, many doubts are about the origin of woods used in these last years and some assembling process ...
Nov 6, 2008 · Welcome Epiphone Player. The LP tremolo you're refering to, is the one that replaces the bar. on the stop tailpiece, right?! I don't (personally) have any experience, with them, but I do have. experience with Bigsby, and Maestro. NONE of those (LP, Bigsby, Maestro), are for "dive bombing," type tremolo effects.
Jul 2, 2010 · anyway, if you want strings that last, you'll have to pay for them. I'd recommend D'Daddario EXP strings or Elixir strings. These are coated and last quite a long time. Another route: get string care products like fast fret, which help protect the strings and clean them.
Jun 16, 2010 · Works just fine with a properly cut and lubed nut. But it's not made for dive bombing. It's a three piece: a mount with a curled back tenon, a string guide with a mortise groove to accept the mount's tenon, and an arm that attaches with a screw and bolt to the string guide. The way the metal mount is made/bent, it acts like a stiff spring which ...
