Any bright ideas on how to remedy this? The height-adjustment screws on my Telecaster humbuckers keep slowly backing off, lowering the humbuckers away from the strings, particularly the bridge pickup on the bass side. I put some foam squares in the cavities below the humbuckers thinking that'd help counteract some of the tension on the springs, but it's still happening particularly during gigs. This picture is immediately after a gig. I literally adjusted the pickup height right before the gig and you can see that it dropped significantly on the bass side. Should I try swapping out the springs with ones that have less tension? Put some thread locker on the screws to hold them place? Any advice much appreciated!

I’m looking at getting a cheap guitar off of Amazon and upgrading it. I’m just apprehensive about it and am wondering if there are problems I have yet to plan for. Anyone tried this recently? If so what problems did you run into? The guitar I’m looking at: https://a.co/d/ea6Q5Qo Update: I ended up finding a Jackson DKAF7 at one of my local guitar centers and am going to go with that. It’s about half the retail price and I am way more confident in its quality. Gonna trade some guitars in and get me a Jackson!

Sorry for multiple posts this week, but I’m bursting at the seams about my son’s bass. If you’ve followed me, you know I have asked for insight on this build and you all did not disappoint! All I have left before Christmas is stringing it up and setting the intonation and pickup height. Sure hope he likes it.

Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah (or Chanukkah), Kwanzaa, Diwali, or other winter holidays, I wish you a happy and safe holiday season!
