Posts will be moved here with general questions/topics regarding issues that apply to all guitars in general such as refinishing, intonation, fret work, nut work, etc. Although Uncle Matt's guitars suffer at times just as any other make or brand, the Guitar Gallery is not Guitar repair 101.
If you are restoring a guitar and need help a better place for this would be the
Resurrections and Restorations forum is the best place for it. Again, keep the threads SITE RELATED meaning Aria, Aria Pro II, Vantage, Washburn, Epiphone, Shiro, Univox, Conrad and Lyle. You get the picture, if there is a forum for it here it's welcome in the Resurrections. Korean, post-Matsumoku, or off-brand aren't going to fly long.
Other sites that would most likely yeild more experienced input would be
Guitar ReRanch,
Guitarnuts.com, or
Frets.com. These sites are geared towards guitar repair in general.

Okay, time to cover the site's backside.
This site cannot and will not be responsible for the implementation of anything duscussed in this forum by anyone other than skilled professionals. Anyone executing any suggestion or solution provided here on their guitar or anyone elses does so of their own accord. No-one here on this site or the site itself (meaning me) is putting the fret file, soldering iron, etc. in anyone's and and forcing them to do anything. If in doubt, always cosult a skilled professional first.
Threads here will be pruned if no posts for a week.
