Dobro pickups & Repair
Posted: 28 Aug 2001 8:51 am
Hey guys thanks for all the tuning info. I just put a McIntyre Acoustic Feather in my Dobro. It sounds a little "Squaky" in the midrange area when I plug it into my Nashville 400. Will one of those Baggs preamps like the Para-acoustic (SP?) DI or the GigPro help me with this or should I use an acoustic guitar amp??
Also, While I had that thing torn apart I used a wooden dowel to fill the holes so when I put the coverplate back on, the screws wouldn't rattle. Now one side is raised and it stripped the new holes almost instantly. Do the coverplates have a proper direction....could I have put it on the wrong way? Also any suggestions for getting those darn screws to quit popping out & rattling would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
