Fixing guitars with a shoe string Budget

I know I've not uploaded a video about guitars, or even written about them in a while. Truth is, with so many things on my plate, I'm having a hard time finding enough time for the shop. Also, truth be told, guitar sales are not precisely picking up at the moment, and the reasons are plentiful.

This one was fun, more so because I have to make do with having very little at my disposal. Also, my friend, has a shoe string budget, which of course can be fun, but only sometimes.

At any rate, it worked, and she's quite happy.

A controversial question for my musicians friends:

What do you think about Piezo pickups?

Some people really hate them, some people love them. In my view, they have their place, but I don't favor them over a more "tradish" pickup per se.

That said, adding a pot to the circuit, a 1 meg pot, allows me to more or less dial back that quack that makes Piezo pickups be hated by some guitarists.

A shop video, for a change. Maybe that's a good sign.
