Thread Name: What Resonator Guitar?
Subject: RE: What Resonator Guitar?
now i remember..

about 4 or 5 years ago i treated myself to a cheapish Tanglewood
solid body electric reso

..the big one like a gibson 335 copy..

except its not semi hollow like a proper 335...

nice p90 at the neck and a contact pickup of some sort on the reso bridge..

[complicated blender pickup/tone controls]


trouble is the cone distorts like a an old 60's fuzz pedal..


one solution i found on a website

[must get round to trying it one day..]

is to dismantle everything..

place the spider on a solid dead flat surface..

and then see if any of the feet are higher than the others
andnot making contact with teh surface..

then its supposed to be a simple matter of bending the spider legs
until all of 'em are in true alignment...


..oh well..
