My Stupid Redneck Mod of the Day! - lreese - 07-08-2016 Get a hold of 'dis: IMG_0068 by imnothere2000, on Flickr Not the roller tree.look right behind the saddles.  Courtesy of Bass Pro Shops! So, after putting the tree on, noticed a little less sustain and a still a lot of vibration on the bridge begind the B and G strings.  Hence the split shot.  Its tin, so no worries.  Seems to work nicely. Get R Dun! RE: My Stupid Redneck Mod of the Day! - Securb - 07-08-2016 RE: My Stupid Redneck Mod of the Day! - lreese - 07-08-2016 You sir need a bender.  Then ye shall know... It seems to add just a little punch to the B and G.  1's enough though - I added the 2nd for kicks. RE: My Stupid Redneck Mod of the Day! - Oinkus - 07-09-2016 Us poor folks can't afford benders and besides they require skills we don't possess.Having sat 10 feet away from Albert Lee for an hour I know it is beyond me.Very nice work , especially if it fixes your issue ! RE: My Stupid Redneck Mod of the Day! - Dr. Vegetable - 07-09-2016 Well, it is the Bass Pro Shop after all... RE: My Stupid Redneck Mod of the Day! - lreese - 07-11-2016 More in stupid redneck mods... Its a slow day at work. Successfully lowered my nut on my Martin without fouling it up. How did I manage that? ;) I took the Kimsey suggestions (.014 to .018) and added a two or tree thousandths. Its still a little high, but I'm going to lower the saddle on the next string change. I did use proper tools this time! New project - a redneck 'Callaham" bushing... AKA teflon tubing. Also splurged on an old fashioned coil cable. Lava - Get it with a warranty!
