I've never seen or heard about this so it might seem silly, but what is an EC 1000? As dcz702 said its and LTD, but more over the shape is that of a Les Paul clone. Oddly enough jstcrsn, most LPs have the same issue. I remember one day many moons ago when I was like OMG Gibson! I bought an Explorer and a LP, they both had that very issue. The Explorer ended up getting fixed with just some fine tuning of the nut. But the LP never got fixed, was told it's just how it was designed, that maybe a bone nut would have helped. I ended up just selling it. I've always wanted a LP shape since but kind of strayed due to those issues that I had. -------------------- Guitars:

I think that this is the model used by Andy James, isn't it? I'm sorry to hear about this Jst, this is a proof that confirms that guitars must be tried before buying, but as you said, this is something usually impossible to left handed guitarists, unless you go to leftorium.

Mate, I've had an EC-1000 for years and have small tuning issues on the G. Never had it set up by a pro, though. What gauge do you use?

If you take it to the luthier and tell him what the problem is, he will probably fix it up, but it occurs most probably because of the switch contacts - you need to use some 'contact oil' - not really sure that's the name, but I am sure that this is the problem and things will be cool again I had this issue on more guitars and it worked out every time. Thank you mates, but AJ uses his model now, right? yes, I think that he is using his custom model in all the newer videos: It looks really cool. This is not an EC, is it? what's the name of the models with this shape? -------------------- My lessons
