Hipshot Ultralights?

Just got your twitter post, hmm, you just can't get a proper burrito in the UK (*sigh*).

In a previous post you talked about having Hipshot Ultralight tuners on your T-birds. is this just to remove some of the neck dive or is there some tonal improvement?

Definitely no tonal difference. If someone were to tell me that there was some sort of improvement (or detrement), I'd have a good laugh. It's really just for smoother tuning action and a little bit lighter weight on the headstock.

Best,
JMJ

Hey Justin which model Hipshot did you use?

I haven't a clue, sorry.

Justin is it the Colverleaf or the modern Y design?
I want to upgrade my 09 Gibson Thunderbird too !

Not exactly sure what that means, but they're not very big.

I think he means the shape of the keys, whether they're round or that triangular shape.

He has the Y's...
