Tremblock with new saddle anchors186 viewsThe original anchors were corroded, seizing the screws, which prevented adjustment. Screws were drilled out. This spoilt the saddle anchors, which had to be replaced with brass (all that was available).tone256Jun 13, 2008

Yamaha LLE72 viewsOne of the reasons I chose this electro-acoustic over others it that it has an outboard pre-amp. The theory is that an onboard pre-amp (one that is built into the guitar) will affect the sound when played purely acoustically, whereas an outboard pre-amp does not require any modifications to the structure of the guitar and does not, therefore, affect its acoustic tone.

Shown above is the pre-amp (Yamaha's Guitar Acousty) moounted on a board with a dedicated tuner and a switch mode power supply.
