Best Answer

Yes, but you're not going to get very far because they're made of nickel. If you intend to clean them, instead try removing them from the bass and scrubbing them with rubbing alcohol.

How do you set the action on first act guitar?

the action on mine was super high. i adjusted the truss rod one full turn clockwise. and then put some elixir polyweb light gauge strings on it. its by no means a gig guitar, i have my takamine for that but this made it a decent guitar to throw in the trunk without any fear of damaging something valuable. one thing i will say for first act is that the tuners are great. (at least on mine) it holds a tune very well. i habnt done it yet but i may sand down the bridge saddle a bit as well just to make it abit more comfortable to play. happy jamming.


How do you get a high gloss finish on a guitar?

to provide a high gloss finish (while making a guitar), first make sure there is no orange peel, or any bumps in the initial color coats of the finish. there should be about 4-5 coats of the said color finish on the guitar. sand the color lightly, and apply the gloss lacquer, about 5-6 coats. Sand the finish with 400, 1000, and 2000 grit sand papers in that order. you should see some of the shine start in this, but not in the mirror- like gloss usually seen on high gloss finishes. finally, take some wax and a buffer, and buff the sanded finish until it is buffed to a mirror-like sheen.

How can i Repair broken neck on guitar?

depends on how it was broken, I've owned a lot of guitars so here's a few answers. if its the trussrod which is the bar inside the neck that straightens the neck its a very expensive repair unless you love the guitar its best to just buy a new one. a crack in the neck that doesnt go through you could sand it down but do it in equal parts, if its a broken headstock (head of the guitar) no shame in super glue. now if you got a set neck guitar like an epiphone/gibson guitar good luck they break more than any kind of guitar neck. Bolt on guitars necks can be easily replaced thanks to classifieds sites and ebay. I've sold guitar necks for 50-100$ depending on how nice they where or the custom work I've done on them. edit: also if you'e got a neckthrough guitar that the neck joint or whatever you want to call it broke the guitar will never sound the same when repaired.
