    JF30-12 Day!

    Thank you. I have yet to try those DR Rares and I do have a pack so eventually will get to them. Thanks for the heads up about them (y)(y) Have tried the coated version and they were fine.

    JF30-12 Day!

    Congrats on the new guitars! Will eventually try the Elixer 80/20 lights on the JF30-12. Thank you for the recommendation. Years ago I used that set on my old busking jumbo 12er and they really lasted a long time! Good deal on the D4-12!!!

    JF30-12 Day!

    So after 3 months with the Newtone Master Class MCL-12 string lights, they started going a little wonky about a month ago. The low G string especially was sounding like it was hitting a high fret but there was no high fret. I tried a little neck relief (1/4 turn on both rods) and this helped a...

    JF30-12 Day!

    After 4 months, the John Pearse Silk wound PB lights finally dulled out although they still sounded pleasing. I ordered in some Newtone Master Class MCL-12 string Lights (0.010-0.048) After the usual one day settle in time these sound brilliant! Easy to play with nice rich tone over all...

    Guild F-240E

    After a month of this guitar adjusting to a Canadian winter, I found it was gradually getting less loud and proud so it was necessary to raise the saddle a wee bit with a hardwood shim. This worked amazingly well and the guitar is a cannon once again. When I first added the shim by super...

    Hi Chazmo Been a couple of months and these JP Silk wound PB lights are still sounding good. I think they are just a wee bit quieter than D'addarios but I have been happy with them. They have remained fairly consistent. Great tone!

    Guild F-240E

    Picked up one of these off of Amazon and it arrived a few days ago. After a day to settle in and a truss rod adjustment what started out as underwhelming has turned into a tone machine! I really could not be happier with this hog back spruce top jumbo! It has a great dynamic range and sounds...

    JF30-12 Day!

    I am now changing strings so got three months out of the DR Coated dragon PB light strings. They were easy to play and sounded good but now are starting to get a little thin sounding. Just put on the John Pearse PB light silk strings and they are sweet and strong (after a day of warming up)...

    Effect of bridge plate on sound ?

    I had a slight lift on my JF30-12 bridge. I could not slide a business card under but a paper receipt went under about 1/8 of an inch along the bottom. Because Guild glued their bridges on top of a very thin line of finish at the bottom of the bridge, they are prone to a lift only where the...
