Is it possible to put classical guitar strings on acoustic guitar? I know some brands make ball end, and i probably also could tie a double knot, or loop de loop like putting on ukulele strings, then insert into the the bridge, pin in
Nice work! I've repaired a few of these over the past year. I did mostly the same as you except I actually used a syringe to inject the glue deeper and it worked very well. The syringe was very inexpensive and I was able to flush the syringe clean to reuse over and over. I also placed a clamp directly over the cracked area. I think doing so placed more compression in the area of the crack. Nonetheless, your method was a success and it's was good of you to share.
Ive noticed in my years of playing that guitars that worn out are usually the best no one would've played it that much if it wasnt i have an old one o fixed and its the best acoustic i have
Thanks man. I am planning to do the same! It is really a hassle to carry these heavy toms and base drum. Now that I saw your video, It really motivated me to push thru with this project.
The saddle is as thick as the saddle slot, it’s a wide slot. Oddly, I didn’t have to compensate for the 3rd string. All strings intonated perfectly into the higher frets with a straight saddle ridge.
Martin had a tradition of the double dots on the 7th fret, and also the 12th, and others copied them. The 7th is a perfect fifth of an open string must have been their idea. Some guitarist also like a more triangular neck feel, but it's certainly a personal preference.
@@HighRoadMusicTutorials I spent so long trying to work out why my banjo intonation and tuning was just way off, and unstable. Honestly, you've saved me time and money taking it in to get set up haha
I have an old pearl export kit that I was thinking to cut in half, one half to convert into an electric kit and the other half for practice, so thank you for this video as it helped me decide to go for it.
Ye. That's the reason why we still have 44k 16 bit as a standard - its enough for 99% of music excluding some very special like complicated orchestral arrangements that need higher dynamic range
Yes, I explain it in this video and you can find a legend in the description. It's called GM (General Midi) drum mapping. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5b4na4rdFbY.html
I considered that, but if that were true, the crosstalk would be happening every time any pad was hit individually. But it didn’t. It only happened when the shoe was involved. And only between the snare and kick pads. It’s an interesting idea though, and this particular iteration of the foot drums may still be worth pursuing with. Things to try would be attaching the piezos with a buffer substance like double sided tape which could dampen high frequency vibrations. Gluing a small weight, like a coin, to the back of the piezo, again to dampen high frequency vibrations. And maybe exploring the way other commercial drum trigger sensors work and applying it to this somehow.
I wish you the very best of luck! As you saw from my mistakes, make sure to cut the fret slots deep enough, and use some sort of support caul or backing on the back so that you don’t cause any damage.
Dude, I haven't even put them ALL in! I figured I had to be a little selective otherwise it would just be a blooper reel. Maybe I'll do a "Whoopsie" episode later?
Andrew, you sound Australian. Is that accent real lol. I actually do custom guitars sometimes when I am asked to revamp some of the cheaper models,. Sometimes if the edges start to come of you can put an edging on the guitar it can make the whole guitar finish look appealing.
I sure am yes, I live in Brisbane, where the Olympics will be held in 2032. > if the edges start to come of you can put an edging on the guitar it can make the whole guitar finish look appealing. Ohhhhhh, that's a good idea. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Major upgrade!
What kind of superglue were you using for the wood filler trick? Looked like some kind of 2 part stuff? I would have liked have seen the products used. Otherwise great video. I also liked your steam the fingerboard dents out trick. I think I would have installed the frets after the stain though.
> What kind of superglue were you using for the wood filler trick? It's Stewmac Superthin Superglue. It believe it's been watered down with something to be so runny that it can wick through tiny gaps and fill small areas. www.stewmac.com/luthier-tools-and-supplies/supplies/glue-and-adhesive/glues/stewmac-super-glues/stewmac-super-glue/ > I think I would have installed the frets after the stain though. I didn't use a stain, you may be referring to the Lemon Oil I wiped over the fretboard. When this is applied to a completely raw, freshly sanded fretboard it makes it look instantly darker and higher in contrast. However, it eventually dries out and needs to be reapplied every year or two. It's generally not advised to apply oil before fret installation as the oil finish can interfere with superglue adhesion later. Each fret must be treated with thin superglue which wicks down into the fret slot and also forms a bond where the fret itself overhangs the slot. Glad you enjoyed the video!
@danyarger, I think the reason it appears to be "2 part" is because he sprayed some accelerator on the superglue afterwards. This causes the glue to set instantly.
@HighRoadMusicTutorials I think maybe my Carvin Bel-Air takes up more space than your kit. For a gigging musician you, Sir, win! Probably weighs less too. You win again! Uhmm... when you get yours loaded up could ya help with mine?
PLEASE NOTE - YOU ARE THE MOST VALUABLE INSTRUCTOR I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED AND I’M A LONGSTANDING PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN AND RECORDING ENGINEER. OVER THE MANY YEARS, I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN PRO TOOLS ONE ON ONE LIVE TRAINING WITHIN MY OWN STUDIO AND NOTHING HAS COME CLOSE TO THE CLARITY OF YOIR DELICATE AND PATIENT APPROACH. AT THE RISK OF BLOWING MY OWN TRUMPET, I NOW DRIVE PRO TOOLS SEAMLESSLY WITH SPEED AND ACCURACY AND HAVE BEEN DOING SO FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS, BUT I JUST HAD TO REACH OUT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I AM HOOKED ON YOIR VIDEO’S, IN THE SEARCH OF FINDING PERFECTION , ANY NEW TRICKS AND SHORT CUTS. I CONNECTED WITH YOUR STORY, AS I AM ORIGINALLY A BRISBANE GIRL AND STUDIED AT THE CONSERVATORIUM OF MUSIC IN THE 80’S AND APPRECIATE YOUR INCREDIBLE ART OF IMPARTING KNOWLEDGE. CUDOS TO YOU 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Hi Andi, thank you for such a heartfelt comment. You prompted me to watch this whole video again and now I'm all warm and fuzzy. I've been experimenting with a lot of different content on my channel but I think you've inspired me to really do some more Pro Tools and recording videos. That seems to be what people connect with the best. Thanks again, you're awesome.
@@HighRoadMusicTutorials thank you Andrew. If you are looking for inspiration, I would love you to do a video on set up and details linking boom drums with pro tools, just sayin’ but this is your gig 🙂 I’ll keep watching.
One thing I've sometimes experienced is that Pro Tools will only "see" a USB keyboard if it's been plugged in before Pro Tools is launched. You can't turn the keyboard on after Pro Tools is already open. Could that be worth a try?
It's really just an issue on my Studio. My laptop saw everything.....my computer even has issue using Omnisphere which is extremely annoying as installing it on my laptop years ago was smooth. I'll have to do some investigating cuz Ableton also isn't responding to my giant keyboard but it sees it
