How much are the Tengda bridge pieces? All I can find on their website is pictures but nothing on price or where to purchase them from.

If things like that were not disclosed I would contact the seller. Maybe you can get a partial refund instead?

Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Recently acquired an Axe FX so I'm selling my M13 to help recover from that. :agreed: Works great and has updated firmware. Only issue is the effects type selection button for bank 1 (the one that lets you switch between modulation, distortions...

Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: 2002 Ibanez RG680CM. HSH, stock QM pickups. Lo Pro edge bridge. Overall in pretty good shape, some typical chips around the edge which were filled with touchup paint. Not a perfect match but close. I had this posted before, but pulled it since I...

I've got a set of pink Titans (not neon pink, I was told they were red but I'm positive they are not), I think a couple Ibanez V8s lying around, a crunch lab, and liquifire with an A8 magnet swap. I've also got plain black plastic covers for the Titans if it matters. Let me know if any of...

It is in fact entirely physically possible to stretch and shrink metal, both through temperature and applied forces, so that argument can definitely be disproved (though if they're giving the a**hole version you probably won't be able to convince them lol). For a double locking bridge, I have to...

From what you seem to desire in a pickup, I think the Air Norton would be a good choice for a neck pickup. The LiquiFire is too muddy and bloated in my opinion but it could probably benefit from an Alnico 2 magnet swap. I am a fan of the Crunch Lab, though some people say it sounds too...

While part of building guitars is fixing mistakes, I think it's important to know when something is too far gone. What you lost in time and materials was made up for easily in experience! Plus you've already discovered a good test platform to work on other things like finishing! Will the neck...

Do bear in mind that yours is an FX Edge III; it's a bit different from your standard locking tremolo. That being said, I believe the baseplate design is pretty much the same as an edge 3, so you should probably set it up in reference to how an edge 3 is normally set up. You also have a bit more...

You're exactly right. Bare wood absorbs finish, so the epoxy sealer fills the pores and seals them, making the wood smoother and preventing it from absorbing any finish that is sprayed on.

I would be inclined to attribute that to their compound radius fretboards.

A tenon isn't necessary if the pocket is tight but it can never hurt in my opinion- even if it's just a small one. I'm assuming your first build was bolt on. If that went well, I would say go for it. My first was bolt on and I want my second to be set so I can carve the heel down nicely.
