I've tighten the tuners a bit. seems much better.

Are there replacement tuners that drop in for phase III? I don't care for them. Maybe I need to tighten them a bit. Also, anybody have issues with the intonation screws on the bridge?

AWESOME, AWESOME, BEAUTIFUL GUITAR! Flawless in every way, plays like a dream after a minor set up, (didn't need much!). I oiled up the fretboard, lowered the action a hair, Intonation was pretty spot on, had to adjust the low E a smidge. Quick, easy, and painless! I find the 58/15's so...

I don't believe I'll be changing them! Very clear, nice and musical. Great harmonics! Guitar sounds killer through my Marshall!

Absolutely. They normally assign a Sales Engineer to you, and when you spend a ton of money like I have, getting a discount is never an issue! Call them!

I have no issues with mine, I LOVE IT!

Any suggestions on pickup upgrade? I find them flabby. I play a lot of metal, but blues and 80's and classic rock as well. I'm thinking SD JB and Jazz. Also, I'd like to go with black speed knobs. Are they course or fine spline shafts? Feels like a ***** to get them off!
