The powder fills out DAW the tiny spaces inside the guitar's wood cavities. Making the sound "Fuller"?

Other versions include saw dusts too

WD40 is a great help in lots of situations..

but stay away from those tuning pegs..machine heads..kahit rusty..once sprayed wd40 on my old rusted classical guitar tuning pegs gears..yeah the rust and the stuck up feeling was gone..but it was waaay to lubricated making it unstable for tuning..

Kala ko baby powder para iwas rashes. 

BTT:

Wipe spaces between frets with cloth and fretboard cleaner, in-between string changes.
Kung walang fretboard cleaner, kaunting baby oil.

I used to create my own Fretboard Oil by mixing Mineral Oil with some lemon.

makabili nga mamaya..haha

[yekoz]

pano sya exactly? like where do i put the other cable to ground it? di ko ma visualize haha. i wanna try this out. 

Usually guitar amps have two inputs, either LOW and HIGH or ACTIVE and PASSIVE.

1. If you're guitar is ACTIVE(LOW) means you connect another cable to PASSIVE(HIGH) going to ground. e.g. any metal DRUM SPUR, KEYBOARD STAND, GUITAR STAND, MIC STAND (para di ikaw lang ang ma-ground) he he he.

2. Just bring another spare of guitar cable/s. Applicable din ito sa MICROPHONE na grounded(pag walang foam).

Harase...

[Rmansh]

if you happen to own a directional cable like Evidence Audio HG, try reversing it. one side is normal while the other side have a bit more treble. it wont hurt your rig but you get more highs doing it, good for dark sounding setup. if you sound trebly, use it normally.
