String winding extends over saddle ?!?!

<r>Yes I noticed it with both brands. I remember thinking it was a little strange at the time and wanting to ask about it but then life (and playing the thing!) got in the way. Seeing your post reminded me of it. A possible temporary solution could be that looking at your E string, the excess windin...

String winding extends over saddle ?!?!

<r>Hey, I have an Excalibur Special and it's on the low E and A strings also (the rest are fine though). However the string winding doesn't appear over the saddle as much as yours, it's still enough to create ever so slight intonation problems. I haven't changed the set up since ...

A very late reply I know, but thats such a sad story you never got to meet him. A legend not only for guitar (design and playing) but multi-track recording and any other things that get overlooked because of his influence. RIP

<r>Please let me know too! I've been interested in the Tremol-no for some time because I want to down tune in many different ways, but like having my trem floating when in standard tuning and don't want to have it flush against the body for the sake of tuning stability (if that makes any s...

Hey there! Really enjoy this style, nice and laid back. I think what you played really works with the musical setting, I'm always guilty of doing too much but I think you got the balance right. How long have you been playing?

<r>Hi, I hope you don't mind me asking, but do your hands get sweaty easily? The reason I ask is that when I let a friend of mine use my Vigier a similar thing happens. When I get it back and go to play it, the neck feels slightly rough and sticky, sometimes with them 'fleks' of skin,...

Looking into my crystal ball i think your Vigier will be........... AMAZING!! Seriously though I've dabbled with 4 or 5 Vigiers other than may own and I promise you the playability across them all was flawless! So I'm sure yours will be too! Congrats, looks a beauty.
