Re: 12 gauge?
if you plan on bending alot, you might have to raise the action. It would help to back the spring claw back and add the two other springs. Also, you should check your intonation just incase.

Yeah, check your intonation, and you will probably have to tighten your truss rod if you're going to be playing in standard.Originally posted by The MinstrelFair as the country was and the goatboy life my fellows' lot, if I could not've imagined my music's one day whisking me Orionlike to the stars, I'd have as well flung myself into the sea. No other fate would even faintly do; an impassioned lack of alternatives moved my tongue; what for another might be a heartfelt wish was for me an absolute condition.

It's doesn't hurt to check it anyway.
Make sure your strings are seated correctly in the nut, and get it re-cut if neccissary.|| Guitar | Wah | Vibe | Amp ||
