I popped a set of the mammoth slinkys on my tele. Nice heavy low strings for drop tunings. Not convinced about the wound g though.
The low 'E' and 'A' strings do sort of sit on rather than in the nut a bit. But I don't really care about that.

Essential items

I'm asking this out of curiosity as my brother and I are building a guitar and I'm wondering what everyone considers a total must have in their axe.

My first ever guitar was a G240 II so pretty similar to those here I'd assume. My folks bought it me when I was 8 or 9 I guess. Learned how to play classical on it and has been my only acoustic guitar since. Even played it in Spain so it has Flamenco mojo in it :) Not in anywhere near as pristine sh...

Fixing a pedal?

My beloved YouDirtyRat is having issues. I think it is probably something as simple as a dicky jack connector problem but I have no expertise in fixing these things. Does anyone know of a London shop which does pedal repairs?
