Go easy on me, boys, I'm a bassist.
But of course I have an Albert Lee (the fancy Orange Crush) and also of course I love it madly. I am not wise, however, in the ways of your skinny stringed instruments. And so I changed the strings the other day, which was quite overdue.
No problems were encountered in the changing of the strings. I obviously used Slinkys, which I believe is what was on it before. The gauges seemed very much the same.
But now, and I don't want to hear any snickering, my whammy bar is quite stiff. I'm sure there is some simple THING I can do to make it looser, right? If one of you would be so kind to explain this operation - please use small words and assume I'm a slobbering Jethro - so that I may once again whammy more easily, I would surely appreciate it.
