I was wondering about those marks while you were getting ready to play, then you started playing and the marks went away somehow 😄 Looks like you sanded across the grain a little. Luckily it's an easy enough fix, just sand them with the grain :) In the close-ups they don't look deep at all. Carefully and lightly sanding those scratches with 1000 grit sandpaper or above(I like 1500), with the grain should blend them with the rest of the board. After oiling the fretboard it should be like they were never there. I would do just one from start to finish and get the feel for it and the result. Doing the others would be easy then. Just my two cents :) In the unlikely scenario of anything going south, it wouldn't be any harder for a good luthier to fix it than it is now anyway. Sorry for the long post, again 😅@@RobArnoldWorld

(Mr) Rob I have a question that I've had a hard time finding a good answer for and thought you'd be the man to ask , i just purchased a mij Evh wolfgang with the top mounted Floyd R and all my previous guitars with F R were full floating , when I'm changing strings or changing tunings do I have to block the trem or re adjust the trem afterwards like on a floating system , in other words to I just make sure the bridge is laid flat and it's correct is there any thing special to do here for correct balance thank you sir

@RobArnoldWorld 2 ай бұрын

Hey man! Honestly, I don't have any experience with top mounted Floyds! But as far as I know, they can't tilt backwards, and the bar can only be dipped downwards, correct? If so, that eliminates half of the struggle! I'd say yes... you still need to worry about making sure the bridge is level, by balancing your tuning vs. string gauge vs. spring tension. But I'd assume it'll be much easier than a fully floating Floyd, because like I said, half of the struggle won't exist, since the bridge can't fall backwards down into the body.

@RobArnoldWorld yes and I went ahead a restrung it and it pretty much holds balance on its own kinda answered my I wn question I appreciate your response i.kust wasn't sure if it needed blocking but it did well thank you

Rob, hi!! Tell me, please, how high do you set the EMG 81 pickups from the strings? Thanks! Excuse me for my English)

@RobArnoldWorld Ай бұрын

Hello! I keep the pickup fairly close to the strings. Maybe a hair over an 1/8".

No that's good! I'm overly fortunate to have an extensive arsenal. So rather than changing strings, I'll often just switch to another guitar! 🤘🤣

If I remember correctly, The RA-600 had 24.75 scale length rather than the usual 25.5 of other superstrats. I take it you prefer the shorter scale length?

It's a bit more complicated. You can hear it from him. video title: 🎸The very FIRST RA-600 signature series ESP ltd guitar! time: 6 minute mark

Thanks @miyaaaaw just watched the video. So there was no real reason behind the choice of the 24.75 scale choice. Is the RA-3 24.75 as well? It's an absolute sick guitar, I am a sucker for single pickups, reverse headstocks and pickguards. This guitar having all 3 was right up my street. I remember the 'Resurrection' bonus documentary there was a part where you were playing 'Six' in the studio and the guitar looked like it was a dark red colour, like a mahogany or wine red and I thought it looked amazing.

@@individuo1177 Yes I believe it is. Even his gorgeous custom RA-5 is 24.75. I'm with you on it being an absolute sick axe. In EYL Ep.29 around 27min mark Rob first hands Hager the RA-3 then an MH1000. You can see the length difference there. Looks like people debated a lot over the scale length when the RA600 was released. And some people even right out dismissed the axe just based on that value without even touching the guitar. Whoever plays it says it plays like butter though and holds on to it. It's very hard to come by :) I have guitars in both scale lengths and the difference doesn't matter much to me. If anything I slightly prefer the 24.75. Mine has a 42mm nut though, I like 43mm better. So RA600 ticks all the right boxes for me, a true dream guitar. I think the scale length was destiny. I take it as a gift from metal gods 🙂

What do you prefer esp/ltd or Jackson soloist

@RobArnoldWorld 2 ай бұрын

Well I've been loving and playing ESP/LTD for 20+ years, and know them like the back of my hand. I really only touched my first Jackson less than a year ago. But I am loving my new Jacksons, and I'm still getting to know them! Right now, it's just one big happy family around here, and I like that.

No joke---is it really possible to be buried with your guitar? Does Last will and Testament enough for it be possible?

@RobArnoldWorld 2 ай бұрын

Hmm🤔 That's actually something I didn't truly consider. I mean I guess I assumed you could be buried with anything you want, as long as it fits in there with ya! But maybe there are some strange rules about that stuff? I dunno!

All I want is an ESP but we're out of tue golden era, and the prices of US made, or even Japanese made has become seriously ridiculous. Some of the MIJ models are 4k. Anything with "ESP" on the headstock like that RA3 now costs AT THE VERY LEAST 5 thousand dollars... R.I.P. ESP, it's not a consumer name anymore.
