MY EMAIL TO THE MONOPRICE COMPANY:
The gold top route 66 arrived and, for the price, my God this guitar is amazing!!!!!!
I was initially going to order the gold top route 66 directly from you guys, but you were out of stock
so I ordered from Amazon. The guitar just got here. You guys really need to do a better job
of packing your guitars. The box was opened on one edge and I could see inside it.
There was hardly any inner stuffing protecting the guitar. I'm truly surprised nothing was broken!!
I guess Fex Ex is responsible for the fact that nothing was broken when the guitar got here.
I like playing using the "Woman Tone" made famous by Eric Clapton.
I've changed the strings and heightened the action. However, I'm getting a strange sound on certain notes
The most pronounced is the 12th fret B (second string) note and two frets lower A note on the same string.
The same strange scratchy overtone can be heard on the 7th fret B note on the 1st E string.
So, it's not a fret problem. It apparently has to do with those particular notes when the
tone controls are in the 0 position. I'm hoping that strange scratchy overtone
will go away as I break the guitar in.
Any comments on your part about this matter will be helpful
Besides that, I really picked a winner with you guys! Thanks!!
