Several = things you might be interested in. First, the set of flanges from Yamaha = were very consistant in regards to pinning/bushings.<S> One thing I did = notice on the flanges was that the new cord material "wicks" the glue = and will have a little bit of stiff cord off the end of the flange. This = "stiff" cord will rub against the birdseys fly cut if you don't mash it = down a bit. Could've been a problem later, if I hadn't noticed it! <G> = Also, a trick about Aluminum rails was learned on this one: When = extracting the screw with the cordless screwdriver spin the screw a = couple of extra revolutions and the self tapping screw that they use = will make a "countersink" that makes finding the thread a real breeze! = The first couple of screws, I really struggled with until I discovered = this thingee! Yahoo!<G> Enclosed is a "Jack Depressor" that a good friend, Orville Milburn, (Of = Milburn Guitars), invented. It's made of a piece of very thin welding = rod, (brass/?), two fishing weights, (flattened around the wire) and a = small piece of player tubing. As it's difficult to get it to stand up on = it's side, on the scanner, I'll just tell you it has a bend about an = inch below the hook to make the "weight(s)" pull down on the Jack Tongue = in a straight line. cheap and easy to make. Although I consider it too = bulky for tool kits, I use it, exclusively in the shop, as it works = soooo much better than the little spring thingee that most, (including = me), have.<G> Regards, Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
