Joined: December 2014 Posts: 1713 Location: Frozen Tundra of Minnesota | Thank You So Much Guys!! ![]() I can't tell you how much I Love this Guitar!!! It is just like playing butter! Soft and smooth!! And the sound is really Incredible! (they all are really...) Now to get the 50th Anniversary Bearclaw in, and I think the Ark is Full, or cave... This is a nice Collection of ones that I really Love, and should keep me busy into Infinity (ummm right!). I do have a couple of Questions about the 47-RI, they have the strings actually hitting the head piece, laying on top of the wood, is that correct?? Won't that dig into the wood over time?? I don't like the way it is strung (OCD), not neat enough, so I am going to put new strings on it once I watch a couple of videos on how to re-string a slot head (this is my very first one!!), so I need to learn how to do that correctly! I think I need to invest in a camera next, my iPad doesn't cut it, and I need something that will take better indoor pictures of my Babies!! Thank You again for sharing my Excitement!! You Guys are the Best!!! ![]() | ||

Joined: September 2006 Posts: 10777 Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | Yeah Nancy, looking at the D and G strings... That ain't right. When you wind the strings onto the post they should be "stacking" outward. Kinda like this (I know this is nylon, but it is just stolen off the web0 ![]() And that is pretty sloppy on the lower strings. Okay, here is one of mine (although I don't own this guitar anymore) ![]() See? Stack the strings outward and they don't hit the wood as much. They will still hit the wood a bit, but that should not cause too much damage in our lifetimes. ![]() | ||

Only if you take some good pictures of her for me!! Red Blanket Ones!! ![]() You know, for once, just once, I wasn't biting off my nails with this one being shipped!! Adamas are fun! You don't have to worry about cracking the tops, or waiting 24 hours before being able to take it out of the case!!! I did let the box come down to room temp, but it was in the 40's here, so nice out, and then I took her right out and had to hold her!!! Then I was up half the night playing it!! LOL!!! This one is going to be like the Millennium, one of those that you just naturally grab, because they feel like part of you!! ![]() | ||
