Broke a tuner on the LP..

budda · 02-09-2008, 12:36 PM

its not the switch this time! i was uncoiling the cable that goes from guitar to TS, and the strap popped off the front of the guitar, it fell on my foot, then landed on the floor. the D tuning peg went flying, it's not staying on any time soon.

so once again, my les paul is useless. dont know when i'll be able to get a new tuner for it or get the shop to replace it.

Just have to use the 7 more now, hrmm?

always use strap locks, or some form of them...

budda · 02-10-2008, 12:33 AM

ed, i used to have a set on there - it felt like the neck screw was going to pull right out of my guitar, so i took them off.

ideally i just want to throw washers on the strap buttons then screw them back on

Edroz · 02-10-2008, 12:35 AM

that should do the job too

. i think we've all been there before with the whole strap misfunction deal... i know i have

oh its happened before, only i had at least 1 hand on the guitar at the time lol.

i just dont know what sized washers to get. also, it looks like a pretty easy fix - i just need to locate some epoxy so i can glue the tuner back together.
