Thanks for the info!

My rods are at the second to highest position so I think I'll leave them alone.

I will poke around the apron to see if anything's binding, though.

Hey guys I've got a lovely Fessenden SD 10 3X5 that could use some love.

What are some of the standard things you recommend to keep it playing smooth?

Specifically, the A pedal feels a bit ti ...

Where is the pot case?

Ooooh the plot thickens!

I suppose I'll just deal with the noise on this knockoff until I get something else.

Just got off the phone with Jerry - nice guy BTW.

He says it is indeed an L 705 and it is hooked up correctly. Then we both scratched our heads for a while.

Ok, there is NO blue wire.

I removed some of the rubber insulation only to find more bare wire. I'm assuming this is some sort of shielding.

So now we have a four wire pickup?

Indeed.

Any advice on how to get the blue wire out? Seems like they cut it real close. I'm trying with my snippers to cut some of the main artery away, but to no avail.

Ok, how do I get the blue wire free?

Also, on Bill's website, it says to wire this way:
"All Pickups with White/Black/Red/Green/Blue Wires

White Wire -- Hot

Black/Blue Wires -- Grou ...

Hooray!

Goodbye, sweet GFI. I hope you like your new home.

I've had this for about two years and played about two gigs with it. It's in 100% mint condition.

The Hilton pedal is active which eliminates the tone-suck that many of us have come to associate wi ...

Yup, the e's go up and down and are operated by the left knee lever

I got this steel a few years back and it's been real good to me. Sounds great, looks great, and holds tune real well.

The fretboard has a few tiny lumps in it which I tried to capture with the f ...
