    Tuner Calibration

    I've got StroboSoft which is way cool. It's more accurate than I can tune the guitars. I noticed that it didn't quite agree with my handheld tuner, or the tuner in the FX box, or something else, maybe the POD XT Live. It didn't even agree with itself; it would be a little bit different...

    Screwed

    I've had trouble stripping out the heads of phillips screws. Should I counterbore the holes for the little screws on the machine heads? One bit for the threads and a bigger one for the shank? Is there a really good line of screwdrivers that grip better?

    More Nut Cutting

    So why does a guitar need to be strung to cut the nut? The target is a point some distance above a plane defined by the first and second frets, right?

    Nuts!

    Is there a reason not to put a touch of non-permanent Loc-Tite on the nuts that secure the jacks, pots, and switches of our beloved instruments?

    An Urge

    OK, I've been sooooo crushin' on my faux strat (Squier Bullet, hot rodded) tone. I've been reaching past my Carvin to play it. It's got a good setup, but nowhere near the Carvin for playability. So I'm thinking of a neck upgrade so I can have the sound and improved playability. I found these...

    Overrated Guitarists

    Who's the most overrated guitarist, or the one least deserving of the fame and fortune that their picking and grinning has brought them? Conversely, who's the guitarist that should have been rich and famous, but never got a break because they were too busy focusing on the art?

    Lighting

    I have not been happy with the lighting in the music room/recording space, but I finally hit on an inexpensive and most importantly, not adding a lot of heat to the room, solution. I got four of these lamp sockets, some white extension cords, four ceiling hooks, and four 9W (light output of...
