Green Circular Caps? as in Ceramic disks? like this?



those things are really cheap. I think you could get em for like 50 pesos per dozen at deeco/alexan. or some crazy price like that.


I think I know who you guys are talking about pero pa-PM na rin hehe.. I've been hearing talk about the guy hiring assistants to do some of the work. And if the original owner of my Tokai is correct, then my guitar was also a victim of a faulty fretboard cleaning job that shaved off a bit of trapezoidal inlay.  :| but enough about me...

BTW cap values are crucial but they don't have to be THAT exact. Interchangeable naman yan to a certain extent:
0.01's and 0.015's
0.02's and 0.022's
0.03's and 0.033's
0.05's and 0.047's

So if you don't get the original cap back, I wouldn't worry too much about it. OK lang yan bro, your tone is all better now; don't look back. :)

Regardless of what it is, lies still spoil it. I've heard stories about people like that for a long time. I'd like to know if my guess is right.

May I know who this luthier is as well? Please PM me. Thanks.

may naexperience din ako noon about pickup installation, kasma kasi sa box ng dimarzio pups yung ibang screws/springs etc pero yung old pickups ko eh meron din nun. so i expected na pagbalik sakin ay may extra springs/screws na kasama ng old pups ko pero wala na. pati yung key na pang adjust ng pickup poles wala na. well hindi ko na pinansin, pero nawalang gana ako dun sa tao..



this was my post earlier. it is confirmed that we are talking about the same person.

regardless kung mahal o mura lang yun pinalitan o hindi ibinalik, maling gawain pa rin iyon.

sa simpleng capacitor pa lang, ganon na ang nangyari, paano pa kung sa libong halaga pa na parts and accessories ang pinalitan ng hindi mo alam at hindi ibinalik sayo?
