Busy day for my SUB.
My SUB was my last guitar with 9-42 gauge strings (in fact, I kept it like that for my 10 years old daughter). My daughter prefers to play her classical guitar (and also MY classical guitar), I decided to put some 10-46 strings on my SUB.
But before that, I did some cleaning of the pots :

The rosewood fingerboard is also quite dry. Normally I use Lemon Oil, but this time I tried olive oil and it works really great.

With 10-46 strings, there is more tension, thus I had to adjust the tremolo springs and of course I had to adjust the intonation (mainly the A and E strings).

My SUB was a great guitar, now it's a perfect guitar :D
Th 10-46 gauge is really better for me and the tremolo works also better (I believe that with more tension, the strings go back to their initial position with more ease).

The SUB is really great ;)
