"Quickie" setup

[stirfriedstrat]

Mods paki-delete na lang po kung meron ng ganitong thread.

Uuwi po ako ng Luzon ng December for the holidays eh balita ko medyo matagal ang waiting time magpa-setup sa mga magagaling nating luthiers dyan sa Luzon. Since limited ang holiday break ko (a couple of days, a week at the most) tanong ko sana sa inyo kung saan pwede magpa-setup ng gitara ng mabilisan (yung tipong hihintayin lang) pero maayos naman ang trabaho. Heto po yung ipapagawa ko:

1.) Papa-babaan yung action as low as it can go without any frets buzzing.
2.) Shimming Floyd saddles para sumakto sa fretboard radius.
3.) Rounding fret edges para smooth mag chord slide while fretting with the thumb.

All suggestions are welcome. Maraming salamat po!

Taga Mindanao ako bro pero pag nasa Luzon ako sa mga kamaganak ko sa Bulacan ako umuuwi. Thanks for pointing this out.

salamat sa reply, best way nga siguro tanungin ko na lang sila kung pwede pa setup ng hihintayin lang.

Mukang mahihirapan kang makahanap na luthier na pwede mo hintayin lang yung guitar mo. May fret work yung gusto mo pagawa, which is hindi minamadali. Siguro kung setup lang like truss rod, action, intonation, assuming your guitar doesn't need fret leveling, baka pwede mo pa mahintay.

Best you could do is set an appointment with your chosen luthier. Let him know as early as possible about your plans so that you could adjust. Both of you have time constraints.

salamat po, oo nga no pwede nga matagalan dahil sa fretwork. pwede na siguro next time na lang yung fretwork di naman nasusugatan daliri ko, medyo sumasabit lang thumb bahagya pag nag thumb slide (if there's such a word ...)
