The top screw of the g tuner is loose :lol: :bang: :bang:

So paradoxically you haven't been screwed and only have a loose screw ? :lol:

Good to hear !
The next step would be tightening it, I guess ... :shrug:

Of course now I can't find one of the little screws that hold the TR plate :roll: It fell off onto the carpet......it's a bugger.

At loose nut.....see, I thought that was one thing that I already checked :shrug: Guess not :?

Anyways, cheers for all the help!

Glad you got that one sorted mate, Team J-Craft have not let you down :D

Yeah, it's a bit embarrassing :oops: I really really really thought I checked all that.

One thing that is weird, for one little loose nut it was REALLY loud :o Sign of possibly a more resonant guitar????

Yeah, probably not :lol:

I have had/done much worse in my times man. one example being putting in some new pickups in one time, not grounding them out of rushing/excitement and getting furious about the noise/hum emitting from the erm humbuckers :oops:
And also constantly getting a shock of this one microphone and guitar like WOAUCH when i put my gob near it - again bad grounding (it was an SM58 and an ungrounded epiphone les paul custom black with gold h/d ware about ten years ago). All very :oops: and :x at the time :hihi:

duncans will do that too, for some reason duncan pick ups are wired with the black wire being hot and the green is ground :shrug:

:shock: but not shocked ;)

Oh that is not good. Have you noticed how when you get electrocuted it flips your mood from fine to vile by any chance? Or anyone for that matter? Well Thats what it does to me. I guess it is how electro shock therapy works? Sort of but obviously E.S.T is more specific and concentrated/specialized. Bloody ruined a good few of my days when fiddling around :x i have one of them sort of bracelet things amongst other things + a proper set of tools these days to avoid that happening :D

Never mind, that's nothing, really. :shrug:
I once knew a guy who went crazy over a rattle on his guitar, turns out he had a loose screw at a tuning peg ... :roll:
Now that was embarrassing ! :oops:

:P :lol: :D :lol: :P

Funnily enough it was a set of Duncans - JB (bridge) and either a 59 or jazz (neck) if i am not mistaken mate. As i was doing a transplant/pimp out for a friend on a cheapish ESP LTD model. Still i won't hold it against Seymour as the pros of many of his pickups (Live Wires, D-Activator and now Blackouts as but three i am fond of) far out weigh the cons :tu: No 'full shred' models mind. Nancy Heart can keep them things :hihi:

I bought a guitar from someone once and when it arrived it had a terible hum problem, as I recall he had asked others for help but no one could come up with the answer...when I got it I saw a Seymour Duncan Invader and fixed the hum :hihi:
