I've seen results of acid rain. Whole spruce forests destroyed to last tree. Y2K was threat but since companies were aware of the problem they solved it before the date.
Just think of chess software...

So far authorities seem to be concerned only in cases when humans are directly physically endangered.

I personally would leave it alone but one of my friends had worn through silver plating on his James tailpiece (agressive sweat) so he ordered just new cover. He had the original cover re-plated at a...

Many folks don't realise the possible long-term consequences of heavy unlimited application of AI (in any field). Recorded music and thus recording artists may become completely obsolete in mid-term...

Most companies goal is to replace those annoying human employees with AI, that's just another "optimization" just like moving to tax haven. This new generative AI algorithms fulfill their wish and...

I have a friend with old 20's F-4 and that had some repeating issues with separating back from block under the neck heel. Luckily previous repairer used HHG so I just opened it a bit more and after...

In OP's case the side is loose from the lining inside so I guess distributing te problem over larger area would be a bit problematic here, easier with full separation from top with lining still...

Buyer should be aware that there are two repaired cracks and some dings at the treble f hole and some damage at the neck on treble side. Also, it is equipped with uncompensated saddle for Thomastik...

Gel contains rubber or other plastic filler so that would not create rigid bond. Regular CA would be better option but ou must keep the rod tight in the slot as it won't fill space and will be...

I agree with the first two paragraphs. The current "state of the art" songwriting and arranging is somewhat automatized, just it is still done by humans instead.

The last paragraph, though makes...

Problem is that once the generative AI "learns" from the input (including lots of original work of artists or other sources like wikipedia or internet sites) no one can (even the AI algorithm) detect...

I don't see use for the tool for ordinary user. If your tuner has loose collar then you need to put a drop of loctite on the thread and tighten very gently which you can easily do with tiny pliers...

I see this also as misunderstanding of physics principles. IF you try to pull the post in the direction that pulls worm and cog apart you'll notice that the fulcrum is right at the tuner plate and...

Correctly fitted tuners, whether they are backwards, upside down, inside out, reverse, worm under or whatever you call them should have tuner post supported at two points that pretty much keep it...

I thought the Loar era L-5's were varnished (but never checked about that). They say it's lacquer. Were the guitars laquered back then?

Much depends on where you put your thumb during playing. Folks who hold the thumb on the very lowest point of neck (like classical guitar players) usually prefer flattish rounded profiles (depending...

Place the hygrometer into airtight container (or zip bag) with a small cup or bottle cap with few teaspoons of salt and add to it water till it is completely saturated with water but not too diluted....

For instrument work all you need is check your device at 33% with magnesium chloride and at 75% with table salt (and optionally at 100% with pure water), and if it is close enough at the first two...

I fret after gluing board to neck. I like to have surface prepared to perfect straight before I install frets and I don't force frets but rather remove a bit of the fret nibs with flat file so the...

SImple analog hygrometers are often very imprecise. Digital are a bit better but still there are differences between electronic elements. You can do the salt test with both of your hygrometers to see...

I guess you are referring to worm above/ worm below cog tuner arrangements. They come from tradiitonal way the mandolins and their tuners were built by certain producers...
Correctly installed and...

That's it, chisels, knives, whatever tool that removes the wood blocking access safely and cleanly.

I wonder what is metric 9/64? I live in metric world but metric are always in mm. like 2mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm etc.
Did you get 4 mm metric (like many imports use)? That would explain why imperial...

Wood will always gets to EMC which depends on RH of air around it. Thermally processed wood has slightly lower EMC and has generally better dimensional stability which was the main argument for doing...

Back to the OP...
In the staged pics from this PR article :
