Quote from: HEAVIER THAN HELL on July 28, 2009, 12:20:24 PMEven if it's not the right switch, I would expect a guitar tech to know that within the same day and let me know that a different switch is needed.My experience with guitar techs is that they're generally good at setting up the guitar and making it play well, but are severely let down by the electronics side of things. I had a conversation with a guitar tech once where they didn't know that changing the volume pot's value changed the amplified tone of the guitar. This was someone of almost pensionable age that'd been in the business all their life.There are notable exceptions of course and both Wez and Jonathon (Feline) both seem to know their onions from the help I've seen them give on this forum. Hope you get it sorted out soon.They never ring me, I always walk in or call them. It's irritating.

That's the problem, I'm currently at home in Belfast for my summer holidays so I can't get to either of them for the mean time :(
