Chibson vs Epiphone
Does anyone have both and willing to give honest opinions about both? I'm curious of quality and playability of both and what everyone's thoughts are on thre Chibsons.

@Patrick Woods I don't know if anyone around me who offers such a class(never looked it up though) but I'm not terribly far from Nashville I'm sure I could find something up that way.

Truss rod nut won’t turn. What has your experience been?

Had a little problem with mine doing the same, applied gental pressure and rocked the neck back and forth very gently. Got mine to start moving
Just picked up a Boss Katana 25 to review
This amp looks like a great, budget, practice amp. Picked it up on Friday and will be putting it through its paces for a full review. In the meantime, I posted a "First Look" video. https://youtube.com/shorts/ThVyK5m7yYk?feature=share

I find the katana 50 mk2 near me on Facebook for around 200 and have been thinking about getting one of them. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this smaller one before I pull the trigger on the 50. I just don't need that much for my living room

I love following builds and watching setups, what is your favorite part of the process?

@William Moyer I was thinking about ordering a set neck LP style kit just to do that.
Guitar 'set up'
Ok,I am usually the guy who rolls his eyes when guitar setup is mentioned, and I usually mention how old my guitars are, and that they have never been set up as far as I know. I finally got curious enough to put a metal a straight edge on the frets (I have an 18" metal ruler that is perfect), my 43 year old Peavey Patriot showed maybe a mm or more of space between the edge and the 9th fret. I adjusted the truss rod and after a bit of tightening, when I spanned the frets, the straight edge was right at the point where the straight edge was just starting to touch the center frets, I checked it out, and the action was kind of like look at the guitar and say A, and it plays A. I decided while I was at it, I would adjust the pickups a little, and now, it's just a rock and roll machine! I played it a couple of days until I couldn't stand the itch any longer, and swapped the Peavey out for my 06 Strat, and ran the same deal on it. I first found that it FELT like the truss rod was getting looser as I turned the Allen nut clockwise, and my measurement seemed to bear that out, so I went with what was working, it seemed like a lot of turning, but eventually I got to the point where it was a fair fit getting an omni guitars business card between the center frets and the straight edge. I tuned it up, and adjusted the pickups a bit, and it is just a delight to play now. There may be room for improvement, but I am in no hurry to play with my bridges or my nuts... no pun intended.

I feel like my yamaha fx acoustic needs to have a bridge filed down some too. The action is so high on my strings at the 12th fret that it makes it uncomfortable to play. I've own this guitar for almost 20 years and have never had it set up correctly though. I bought a epi les paul from a friend on Facebook for 180 and really enjoy playing it so I wanted to get my acoustic back out and tried to get back into it. I just couldn't bring myself to take it apart and file it down

@Jonathan Haynes I likely will but I was going to wait until I had the chance to order a fret board gauge to make sure I don't need truss rod adjustments while I'm going after it
