My favorite kinda Saturday

[peterc52]

Changing strings. Setting up. Having a good time. And a cold one (or more).

Beautiful rosewood newly oiled.

It has 1987 EMG 81’s. And the sound bigger and a bit looser than the later 81’s. I love them. Tight enough.

I’ve always wanted a KH-2. I’ve never found a decent deal on one though. And most are bolt ons. I’d love to find a regular one in NTB.

Great looking guitar.

 

[TheGreatGreen]

Neat guitar.

I always wondered what an EMG 81 would sound like in the neck.

This is a NTB and it sounds great thru the sniper!

Sounds like a cool day, Peter! I have always liked the KH-2 vintage.

Thank you good sir!

Side note:

Are the saddles specifically made for the strings. Or can I change change them around between the strings?

I believe you can theoretically switch up the saddles. However since this seems like an old guitar, the strings have been tensioned across those saddles a long time, potentially forming mini grooves whose width is determined by a particular string gauge. IF that’s happened you may run into issues switching saddles as a substantially different gauge won’t sit as precisely in a differently spaced “notch”.

The saddles are specific to the string position. They should be labeled underneath. It’s to keep the radius correct.
