This is up to personal preference for some folks it's a question of weeks or months, for others it's a question of hours of play time. Whenever you decide that they don't sound or play well anymore. I don't remember it happening in standard tuning.Īny words of advice will be very appreciated! The 6th and 5th string sound too low and the bottom strings sounds out of tune. Should I get this professionally fixed? I don't have an amp with me but the last time I hooked it up it played fine.Īlso, I was playing around in C tuning and whenever I try to put a capo on it it sounds so bad. There are some wires dangling about that I can see from the f holes. Would a humidifier help?Īlso, how often to you wipe down and clean your guitar? I have the basic kit of cloth, lemon oil, mineral oil, cleaner/polisher. I now live in California, close to the beach but still pretty dry over here. Is there any negative effects to the guitar if I don't change them often? How often should I change it's strings? I don't play it very often so they are visibly still nice after a long time. I want to still play it but be able to maintain it to keep it a family heirloom for a long time. Fantastic tone and actually stays in tune (unlike my other guitars). I didn't really believed how well these old guitars were built until I played one. My uncle was able to play balls and other concerts because of this and still is plays and composes today. My grandfather saved up and bought this guitar back in the 50s as a present to him when they were dirt poor in Rio de Janeiro.
It is a beautifully rustic 1954 ES 125 Gibson acoustic electric guitar as a gift from my great uncle when my grandfather passed away.
