A little worried

Today I brought my Parlor to Malcolm for installation of strap button on the treble side of the bowl.  What should have been a 30 min max ended up being 3 hrs instead.

The delay was due to the “molly” being of high torque (according to OFC* term) and difficulty of gripping within the soundhole.  Anyway after much thoughts, it was finally installed.  I’m just glad it was fixed without any greater disappointment.  I’m a happy camper for now :-)

Then Malcolm exclaimed while putting on a new set of strings for me that the tuner button of the low E (6th string) was broken (cracked actually).  Oh well, we’ll just have to deal with the things that flow down the pike I supposed. 

Meanwhile, the slimline pickup isn’t working after all. In a sense it’s okay because I don’t play plugged in. i supposed if it’s really down then it’ll a couple or three hundred dollars to change anyway. 

I came home and the crisp sound of the guitar is there plus it didn’t roll or flip faced up as i play standing with the guitar strap on. Not too bad a day after all!
