Sion has sent me an email detailing the steps he took to get his 2012 Fender La Cabronita set up correctly with the help of one of my aged hipshot style bridges and an Allparts bone nut. Thanks Sion! I was aware that the 2012 Cabronitas made in Mexico had some slight QC issues, but […]
I don’t have a review section on the site (although I suppose I should) so will occasionally post messages received from customers here. A few days ago I received a nice message from Miller Anderson, a gentleman with quite a resumé, about the positive results of changing to the aged Hardtail Hipshot-style bridge on a […]

Back in August I asked if anyone could confirm the bridge/string through specs on the Fender Thinline and Squier VM La Cabronitas. Chris was kind enough to write up his […]
Back in July the Music Radar (should that be one word?) forums were taken down due to a malicious attack. They are still gone! A few of the regulars took it upon themselves to start a board to cater to the suddenly homeless membership. The Fretboard. (How that name and domain have never been snapped […]
I have been meaning to write something about this pickup for a long time now – it has been in my US Std partscaster since January. I have a Tonerider Hot Classic in my Esquire #1 and I am very happy with it. I decided to sell the Keystones in my US Std partscaster and […]
