Missed out on a used rg652ahm prestige today by minutes. I was in an offer battle and didn't want to go above $940 and was countered $949.00 - I stopped to take a shower and 10 minutes later it sold. If one of you snagged it, nice work.

It's like the 1 outta 2 fucking times a year I'm actually feeling like playing guitar I can't figure out my computer shit because I use it so infrequently and have no idea what I'm doing, and I have no amp set up at the moment to use instead. Fuck's sake.

Also I've been spending way too much time on my phone lately.

Lost the allen head screw for my bridge saddle on my 6 string. Been struggling setting up my guitar, as embarrassingly, I"ve never done it 😅

Given that it's a 6 string the best set-up is probably setting it up with a comfortable spot in a gig bag or hard case and leaving it alone. ;)

100% I do this with all my guitars and I've never had any problems with them
i'M a MuSiCiaN :lol:

For real though are you sure it's the saddle the needs to be tweaked? IME saddle adjustments only need to be made very, very infrequently and usually if you think you need to tweak saddle height what you actually need to tweak is your truss rod.

I've never done my own setups, so I'm experimenting. And the action ruler I have has a little table for High/medium/medium-low/etc with recommended settings, so I'm just doing a tour of it all for the halibut.
I first went as low as I could because I want to put as little effort into fretting as possible, but quickly found I can't do full step bends. So I'm bouncing up and down the action, having fun with it.

Not exactly my idea of "fun", but definitely worth messing around with to get used to setting stuff up 👍

Once again, my wife's Hyundai is victim to the "Kia Boyz" TikTok theft challenge. Unlike the first time, they weren't able to finish the job, so I found it parked where I left it but with a broken rear window and lock cylinder.

Now the key won't turn so I basically have to finish the thief's job for them so I can get this thing into the garage before my HOA has it towed... :noplease:

These cars have such stupid design flaws. My disappointment is immeasurable. :lol:
