OK...so UPS says my new/old X160 should be here on Friday! I happen to have a gig on Friday night and would LOVE to take my new baby out to play, and I'm doing as much advance prep as possible...naptha, 0000 steel wool (for the frets), guitar polish, lemon oil, new strings (might even try my first-ever set of flat-wounds (D'Addario chromes? 12's ?? advice?)
...BUT...
Here's a couple of pics, if you can zoom in, look at the string spacing on the nut (looks OK)...then at the bridge saddle (not OK).
The bridge saddle needs to be slid towards the right (treble side), but it looks like the sting slots will need to be re-cut to even out the string spacing and go over the pickup pole pieces correctly.
So it looks like I will need a new bridge saddle. Which one and where? Anyone know?
Thanks...
