<br>
<br>
These were a LOT easier to install than I expected.  I did end up having to do just a very little bit of filing, and then clamped the bushings in (with a soft
cotton rag over the back of the headstock to protect it).  I really like the look and the tuners feel like a lot better quality than the OEM tuners.

			<description><![CDATA[ Hey Mike,
<br>
<br>
Need your advice.  This new Martin I got came with a set of bone bridge pins that the guy didn&#39;t install because they were slightly too large.  What&#39;s
your opinion?  Sand the pins to fit or ream the pin holes?

			<description><![CDATA[ Hey Telemikster,
<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve noticed that the tech questions have been kind of light lately, so here&#39;s a stumper:  <img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif" alt="image">
<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve noticed that a couple of vintage acoustics that I&#39;ve purchased lately must have been owned by smokers.  Any way of ridding them of the smell of
cigarettes?

			<description><![CDATA[ Your suggestion for superglue on that loose fret worked like a charm...I got it properly aligned and it seems dead set now.
<br>
<br>
okay, well seems I spoke a little prematurely...it&#39;s sitting a bit too high and I can&#39;t get it down any farther (even with some very gentle hammer
taps)....fortunately, that doesn&#39;t become a problem until about the 13th fret and I&#39;m rarely (if every) playing that high up the neck.  So, I&#39;ll
still have to get it fixed, but this is a workable solution for now <img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/roll.gif" alt="image">

			<title><![CDATA[ Grover open back tuners ]]></title>
			<link>http://bayareaguitarswap.com/topic/319/Grover-open-back-tuners</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Anyone have any experience installing these?  I bought a set from Stew Mac to replace the cheap-o tuners that came on the Martin DSR, but they&#39;re unlike
any I&#39;ve come across.  The bushing for the faceplate seems to have a nut that&#39;s purely decorative.  I&#39;m wondering why they&#39;d make them like
this or if I&#39;m missing parts somewhere!

			<description><![CDATA[ Say, Telemikester . . I see the term &quot;overspray&quot; mentioned quite a bit in my quest for my vintage Martin flattop.  I know what overspray means when
it comes to painting house trim, but what about in terms of guitars??

			<title><![CDATA[ Intonation Question ]]></title>
			<link>http://bayareaguitarswap.com/topic/32/Intonation-Question</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Hello, I had a general question regarding intonation.  How often should it be checked?  When I used to play bass in a band, I would check intonation before
every show.  It was usually spot on, but I didn&#39;t want to take a chance of being out of tune during a live show.  Should it be checked religiously?  Thanks
for the info... basstard

			<title><![CDATA[ Neck Dive ]]></title>
			<link>http://bayareaguitarswap.com/topic/24/Neck-Dive</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Hi Telemikester, I had a question about neck dive.  I play bass and own an instrument notorious for poor balance and neck dive.  Any advice on how to combat
this?  I&#39;ve tried wider leather straps and even went as far as relocating the strap buttons on the instrument.  Very little improvement in both cases.  Buy
a new bass?  Haha!  Thanks for the advice... basstard (my username, not you)

So Mike, when would one prefer a wound versus an unwound G string?  For slide playing?
