Hey guys! Since I encountered a lot of discussions revolving around setting up guitars, I thought I should start a thread with tips, tricks and info regarding the subject
 Although I don't do the setup on my guitar - I'd rather have a pro do his job and make sure that my instruments are properly set up, I like to know what's going on back there so I started looking out for info and principles related to setting up our beloved instruments. Here's what I found: http://www.guitarrepairbench.com/electric-...itar_setup.html This one looks like the 'hands on approach' and it's pretty interesting to read. http://www.guitartechcorner.com/ http://www.theguitarworkshop.ie/ These two provide services as well but there are tips and tricks there, which you might find worth reading Now, this thread is open for anybody wanting to post interesting info or asking a question which someone would have an answer to - this is what GMC does best, right?

I have no clue about setup and electronics fiddling on guitars and I feel I'm missing out a lot!
It would be awesome to know how to do a pro setup on my own....but then again, it would be awesome to know how to fix my car as well heheheh I should definitely leave those things to the pros Thanks for the link - very helpful! -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I always refer to this website when I need a wiring diagram. There is a diagram for just about any option and they will even write you a custom one (for a fee) if you need something they don't already have listed.
