Hi brothers and sisters. Just finish workout my new baby.

Saddle upgraded to fmi. It has odd compensation. And change the plastic pins to bone pins. I dye the bone pins with dark coffee for a few hours. Here the photo to share...

ive heard of it and am curious if it really works.

let me know how it goes. I mean for me nowadays I travel for work for about 2 months and my guitars dont get much action. I actually lend them to trusted friends to be 'babysit'.

I thought you dont like Taylors?
How about my PRS?

I'm testing now. I will post up comparison in a few days time. According to colling's forum (they have the most comprehensive raw data), the optimum is about 6 days +/- I will probably make a 0 day sound clip which i had done this morning, a 3 days and a 6 days.
FYI, this device is 30 days money back guarantee. You can just get one from www.tonerite.com and return it before 30days. hahahaha..

If it works, you can send down your guitar to me... I'm more than happy to help u to tonerite it.. eventho i'm not so a Taylor fan... But I admit... I will molest your baby kaw kaw...

why would u like my Taylor when you have an amazing Martin?

BOth are amazing. I'm more than happy to try different guitars. And I think you must be having an aged piece. I'm kinda love frequent played and older guitar. They have certain sweetness that we don't hear it in a new stiff guitar.

HAha.. if u don't play it frequent, I promise I play it foe u everyday... tongue.gif

i play frequently when I'm back. I buy old used guitars (acoustics) as I prefer the worn in sound. Plus to me the quality of new Taylor guitars have dropped significantly (or at least the ones I've tested in Bentley).

Ok  Guys... Here my final report for tonerite...

Before
https://soundcloud.com/censesence-chiar-cho...before-tonerite

about 50 hours
https://soundcloud.com/censesence-chiar-cho...-hours-tonerite

About 80 hours
https://soundcloud.com/censesence-chiar-cho...-hours-tonerite

To be honest, I don't feel much difference between before vs 50 hours, 50 hours vs 80 hours. But when i compared before and 80 hours, I do hear some differences... Perhaps tighter bass and sweeter trebles?

Do share with me how you think. But pls pardon my playing skill..

I'm preparing to share something interesting once I got them ready. Pimp your guitar.... Make them looks unique... so please stay with me, bare with me, and give me mental support please. Thanks.

Internet is kinda slow at where I'm at (i'm in the middle of the ocean) so I cant really load those files.

Hmmm now thinking of passing you my Taylor and you can prob tonerite it and mod it while baby sitting it. haha. (I'd pay).

Whats your take on Breedlove?

talking about nitro finish, the so called special nitro finish on my PRS seems to be extremely soft. Its like you can dent it by just pushing your pick down on it. Not htat I've tried that but its been getting some war scars on stage/studio

They seem to be improving but Taylor... hmmm... still would go for their older stuff.

May I know where you're based?
