Wow, super clean... That's after light polishing on the fingers, right?

Would have been great reality TV.

Reassembled the changer. Lubed with TriFlow. Tomorrow I can install the lower return springs, put on a set of strings, and start rodding it.

This is great. I got a bottle of triflow equivalent from either Mullen or Williams, it has the needle applicator

I maybe inspired to do... something on my Carter, at least beyond replace torx screws, pull rods, dogbones. I just PM'ed guy who used to make lever reversers with rollers built in like Mullens.

I think someone has been adding LUBE on top of lube on top of lube etc...

My based on experience opinion , don't add lube to a changer because someone tells you it will solve some sort of problem. It creates a BIGGER problem. What you have here is incompatible LUBE sitting on top of other incompatible Lube.

"Together Again"










Not done yet reinstalling FP on P0, nor the split to tune C when LKV and A are engaged. Those will have to wait. I'm having surgery Tuesday and won't be allowed to lift anything for 6 weeks.

Updated pad, recovered with suede is mounted with standoffs so it does not set flush on the top of the cabinet.

Good luck with the procedure, don't be the guy that decides to go windsurfing a week and a half later (one of my friends actually did that.)

710? I just took almost the same photo for another thread:

XR-16. But I sometimes wonder how it would sound with a different pickup.
