    String Compliance Question

    Hi everyone, I am not a luthier, but suspect that a luthier might be able to answer this question. I’m a happy owner of many LP’s, but one in particular has a particularly troublesome feature- no matter what strings I put on it, it feels incredible taught, and difficult to bend (I guess you’d...
