Remember this guy from a couple months ago when it was in for a voodoo drop-signal repair? It's back in for new tuners (purchased pre-relic'd to match) and a fret end dress. Thankfully the signal is still going strong.

A slick b-bender tele in for a quick setup and I also ended up replacing the output jack. In the right hands, this thing sound killer. Not so much in my hands :).
The quality of machining on the B-bender components are incredible on this tele but the player was having difficulties plugging into the jack. The contact on the jack is rather large and was being pushed up against the body when a cable was inserted. I ended up swapping out the budget output jack for a Switchcraft and now the cable inserts with ease. The original jack was metric so I had to change out the electrosocket mount as well.
This Epiphone archtop came in for a setup along with a full fret level. The fixed-top archtop bridge also needed to be properly compensated to keep the flatwound strings playing in tune. During the final setup I found this annoying B note sympathetic vibration that was tracked down to the bridge tone cap physically vibrating against the pot. This was a first for me! Just glad I figured it out as rattles can drive you insane.
