I bought a Luke III from Wildwood Guitars and it's absolutely incredible. The neck definitely takes getting used to as it's like playing a broomstick! I was very disappointed to know that I cannot adjust the pickup height.
I don't know if you did this to your guitar or a customers, but did you notice any difference in tone or playability? Just wondering since I'm not familiar with the Graphtech product.
Man...I wish someone would do "how to" video on a LUKE III showing "how to" set the bridge up flat on the body, so that the trem is a dive only function. I've got mine close but it seems to get it flat, one must lower the 2 posts which would mean the saddles need to be raised, which is virtually impossible since they're almost maxed out in height now. Can the LUKE III trem be set flat/dive-only? I hate the trem moving even slightly when I bend strings; I can feel the tension change & I have to push the string a little harder since the bridge is moving, making a whole step bend much more work than it should be. And when bending the G, the B & E 1st go flat. Help....
Just get your guitar to a local luthier, they will fix it for you. Actually, the L III comes with a flat trem from the factory. I‘m pretty sure you didn’t use the same string gauge as the original setup, that’s why your trem goes crazy. Trems are super hard on such tiny changes
Hello there! Awesome video!! I would appreciate some guidance here. I am new with the EBMM Majesty, what is the best way to know when the bridge is level? I change strings to 9-42 and I’m having issues with the action and the level of the bridge. Action had to let it a bit higher for my taste because when trying to get it lower it buzz when pulling the bar uptone. And the bridge, the entonation holes must be OUT of the bridge cavity? Or level? Thanks for your help!!!
José Alberto Gonzalez C. In terms of level it would really depend how you want it setup. I personally like the bridge plate to run horizontal to the body with a 1.5mm gap. The saddles should then be used to get the right action and radius. I go for Bass side 1.5mm at the 12th fret and 1.25mm on the Treble. Truss Rod should set the next to almost straight with slight relief. Hope this helps. Welcome to email me pictures rich@soundunlimited.co.uk
There’s a little bar that comes with them. You can use other tools but be careful, as there is a reasonable amount of pressure needed and you don’t want to slip.
