Re: String action

I am scared I will * up doing it on my own, and I do not trust anyone with my guitar because in the past, whenever I had a professional change pickups, they scratched my guitar - even at Thomann :( If you trust no one (including yourself) to change your guitar’s pickups, then why are you changing t...

Re: String action

Or does Vigier offer such services? I am scared I will * up doing it on my own, and I do not trust anyone with my guitar because in the past, whenever I had a professional change pickups, they scratched my guitar - even at Thomann :(

Re: String action

Oh my god. I wanted to install new pickups today, and I noticed the screws are different. The vigier pick guard has two screens on one side and one on the other. Can I just use a HSH pickguard with two pot holes and screw it on the vigier? Or what shall I do? I cannot install the pickups otherwise.

Re: String action

If you put 010 strings, you must change the nut. The one you have must have one dots on the bottom, you need two dots so it fits strings up to 010-052 https://www.vigierguitars.com/faq-2/ Hello Patrice, I have a question. I would like to put 11-56 strings on my Vigier. I never replaced anything on ...

Re: String action

Congrats on getting an SL. As someone who has owned (and extensively modified) the Natural and Master models, please feel free to discuss any aspect of the guitar and I’ll likely respond. Hey man. That's very nice of you! I am very happy with the SL. First of all, it sounds amazing. I put slightly ...

SL model - tone control issue

The tone control doesn't really work. I can't gradually change the tone using it. Only if I turn it around completely, the tone changes from bright to muddy. It affects all pickups. Usually, the tone control allows you to adjust the tone individually but with my guitar, it doesn't work. It's basical...

Re: String action

My Shawn Lane signature model arrived! What an awesome guitar!! I have one more question: The screws of the pickups are individually highy. Some are very low, some are very close to the strings. Was that done on purpose for tonal reasons?

Re: String action

If they level the Vigier frets we will stop to deliver them, because we think our fret job is "perfect" and all what they will do is damage it and cancel the warranty. :geek: Hahaha, good reply. That's the answer I was hoping for. I ordered it - the Shawn Lane signature model. It arrives Friday. 8-...

Re: String action

Sorry, the GV guitar was offered as a modern Les Paul in one of the German stores that are reselling Vigier guitars. I understand that there is always some slight buzz, which is not problematic when distorted, but a lot of guitar buzz extremely even when setup with a PLEK machine because of their fr...

String action

Hello everybody. I saw that the Shawn Lane Signature Model is delivered with an incredibly low string action. Now my question is - are other models, such as the G.V. Wood Les Paul, also capable of that low string action or is it just the signature model that allows it? I am looking for a new guitar ...
