Just used this to clean my SG and strat: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail ... lsrc=aw.ds Fantastic. Like new baby! Now all i need to do is learn how to fix intonation issues. Maybe some day. However, anyone know how to do a similar deep clean to the maple neck? Specifically the 52 tele reissue butter scotch blonde maple neck? I usually just scrub with my fingernails and some cloth but i loved being able to apply thse cleaners to the strat and was wondering if there was something similar as the lemon oil apparently isn't safe. |

Is that just by nature of the slow warping of a neck? When does the truss rod come into play? |

I absolutely love my Marshall SVC 20 but at 5 watts its still so fucking loud. I dont really ever get the chance to turn it up and enjoy those sweet spots. Have you considered the Torpedo Captor? It's main function is as a reactive load box for silent recording or as a DI to FOH....but it does also have a -20db attenuator in it. It might check a couple of boxes for you. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/TorpedoCap16--two-notes-torpedo-captor-reactive-loadbox-di-and-attenuator-16-ohm |

Ha. i've been GASing over a captor for years now. I've got access to a ton of great amp sims, free and paid but there's just something so tempting about being able to record my actual amps that excites me. |

this is a random gearhead thought....i spend a lot of time looking at real estate on line in different cities..pretty much since covid came along i see a lot of guitars in the pictures on real estate sites...hanging on the wall or just on a couch..do you think people wanted to learn to play or just want pics to look cool and use them as wall art? |
