guitar set-up. muted notes?
« on: April 26, 2006, 03:44:16 PM »
sir ung bagong acquire kong guitar. naka tono na pero sa may gitna or sometimes sa dulong frets e muted siya. kumbaga di na nagvivibrate ung string. haven't tried it yet on an amp. tanong ko lang kung mareremedyohan ba to sa setup lang? o kailangan ko pa ipaadjust ung truss rod?

btw... naka floyd rose...

maybe there are bent kinks along the string, stuff from the guitar cloth stuck on the string, stuff on the bridge or nut...

yep, or pwede ring masyadong mababa yung action nung neck mo. hassle yang ganyan.. pacheck mo na yan kasi badtrip luminya pag di clean yung lalabas na notes. pag nagcho-chords ka basag din yung tunog diba?

hmm ang ginawa ko dun sa guitar ko was i adjusted the truss rod para magcurve nang konti yung neck ng guitar. you have to find the best compromise between fret buzz and action height. oo nga mawawala yung fret buzz pag tinaasan mo sobra yung action pero ang problem dun is papangit yung playability ng guitar mo. if you're not used to adjusting your truss rod, i suggest that you bring your guitar to a luthier. good luck sa pag-ayos ng neck mo pare :)

kung strat... saddle adjustments lang yan.. hopefully di ka na aabot sa trus rod adjustment. baka mababa lang sobra yung action.

check mo rin mabuti yung nut ...
kung bolt-on neck, check kung me shimmy sa neckpocket.

safe naman na gawin mo muna to before spending cash yun pala madali lang ang solution :)

if all else fails, luthier na nga sagot.

oo nga mas mahirap yan... eto pa pwede mong gawin..

yung tremolo post nya, pwede mo pang iangat yan ng konti. or kung matiyaga ka, baklasin mo yung mismo mismong pinagdadaanan nung string sa bridge, pwede rin iangat yan..kelangan mo lang yung napakaliit na allen wrench.

isa pang option, pwede mo bigyan ng konting slack yung springs sa likod..yung tamang tamang  stress lang sa strings.

di naman..wala kasi akong perang pampagawa at pang setup ng guitars ko kaya ako na lang gumagawa ng paraan...kesa ipampagawa ko, ibibili ko na lang ng pedals or other guitar stuffs...

ingat lang lagi sa floyd rose, pag me nasirang part, napakahirap maghanap ng kapalit na parts.
