It sounds like the potentiometer (pot) in the tone circuit might be a linear pot rather than a logarithmic (log) pot. This is a common problem with electric guitars.

Your pick does look kind look of like a Dunlop Primetone Semi-Round, but Dunlop does not make a Primetone Semi-Round Smooth in black, in several thicknesses, today. I do not know if they did in the...
The "The Loar" website says this model has a two-way truss rod.
I wonder if the truss rod was installed backwards (flipped end-to-end).
Violins have a saddle, usually made of ebony, inlaid into the top or the rib to keep the tail gut from compressing the edge of the rib and to distribute the string load to the tail button..
If you...
Posting now states "Local pick-up only".
It's made by TKL. It very likely is the case that came with the instrument from Ellis.

I haven't seen one, but they used to list a pattern they described as a bowl back. I don't know which shell they would use and they have recently modified their website so I can no longer find a...
Fiddler’s Green is in Lockhart, TX, now. Take I-10 west from Houston then north on TX-71.

I have a stenosis in my neck. Ultimately physical therapy eased the symptoms, but it did initially cause involuntary movements, which could be described as tremors, and weakness, as well as nerve...
I used the handle of a screw driver to compress the foam in points where the contact was too close in my Travelite, not so much on the top, but to accommodate leaving a Tone-Gard on my mandolin. I...
The Ernie Ball Earthwood Bass is the best sounding acoustic bass guitar I have ever heard without amplification. They are the size of a guitarron with a 34" scale fretted neck.

Based on his finger and bowing, and his sound, I believe he may be tuned down a whole step to FCGD.
He seems to be playing an Eb with the first finger on the highest string, in half position.

About five years ago I bought the medium set of round wound ball end strings from Martin/mrmando and had my Eastman MC setup with a proper nut and the bridge reslotted. It is much easier to play, no...
What do you hope to accomplish with polish?
The Tru-Oil is applied to be able to buff the instrument long before the Epifanes varnish is hard enough. I don't know that it adds any durability. I...
