Some goodies came in for my 9-string guitar

Another one for today. Gibson Les Paul Junior in for a heavier set of strings. Set up and fitted with Power Slinky 11-46 strings

This Ibanez hollowbody came in with a loose jack socket which had fallen into the body. Gave it a needed setup while at it, and fitted with 11-50 flatwound strings. Usually work is done in the attic, but it's too hot so I moved to the couch this time 😅

The little amp that couldn't, can once again...can? Replaced the faulty jack socket for a new one. Ready to rock again. 🤘🏼

This strat model came in for some much needed attention. Middle pickup was not working, and it was really gunky and dirty. Regardless, this one is fitted with some really nice parts. Fender Custom Shop pickups, switchcraft 5way and jack, japanese pots and a brass nut. Wiring sorted, gave the thing a deep clean and she's ready to go.
