Vigier Shawn Lane for sale (USA)

<r> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Vigier Shawn Lane. The action is low and effortless. Its also a very stable guitar, meaning a <br/> strobe tuner shows very little if any change of pitch after days or weeks of not being played. <br/> The most outstanding thing about this guitar at first sight is ...

Ordering from Vigier USA

<t>Sorry to be a pest, but I have been trying to get a tremelo spring cover for my Shawn Lane and am having trouble trying to contact via the Vigier USA website. To be fair I DID hear back from someone there several weeks ago, but it was during NAMM, and he told me it would take some time to get the ...

Pickup screws should be counter sunk!

<r>Why do you countersink the screws that hold the pickguard in place? Why bother? Why not just make them smaller versions of the giant chrome ones that anchor the middle pickup? (as on the Shawn Lane).<br/> I am just a small voice in the wilderness over here, but you could try, at least, to see how ...

Pickup screws should be counter sunk!

<t><br/> This is a pic of my Shawn Lane with the middle pickup changed to have a counter sunk screw. A countersunk black screw. The counter sink hole is too small (I didnt have the right tool) but you get the idea. It would look better still if it were properly countersunk. Pickup mounting screws ...

10% carbon strong enough for string tension by itself?

<r><QUOTE author="Moto54"><s>[quote="Moto54"]</s> Second - I have a piece of the carbon that gets used in the neck and I&apos;m sure it could withstand whatever the combined tension is. The thing simply doesn&apos;t budge. In fact, if I stay in a not-so-great neigborhood, I sleep a little easier ...

Can I get a pickguard with no middle pickup hole?

Thats too bad. I was not asking for something totally new, just that certain holes not be drilled. Anyway, thanks for the quick and custom reply  :-)

Can I get a pickguard with no middle pickup hole?

<t>I guess this message is for Patrice:<br/> I have a Shawn Lane Master Signature and there are two things about the pickguard layout that gets in my way: one is the middle pickup, which bothers my picking, and the other is the volume knob, which knocks against my hand all the time. My current ...

TUNING ISSUES

<t>I have a Peterson strobe tuner thats accurate to 1/1,000th of a semi-tone. That kind of accuracy is great until you notice that your Les Paul will not &apos;cage&apos; the strobe solidly, which was my experience. The more accurate your tuner the more you see tiny variations in pitch. A tuner with ...

10% carbon strong enough for string tension by itself?

<t>I am impressed by how tuning-stable my Vigier is compared to either the strat or the Les Paul I have owned. With a strobe tuner and the LP, for example, putting your playing hand anywhere on the neck while tuning causes a reaction on the tuner, either sharp or flat. With the Vigier there is no ...
