hey skata:
I love my Hodad too. The pickups are microphonic...nature
of the lipstick tube. I suppose you could dip them in
beeswax/parrafin...but I'd just leave them alone. I have
used 054 strings on mine...currently I am running chrome
flatwounds, but I also run GHS round wounds on occassion.
No special adjustment for the Bigsby tremolo, just make
sure all the screws are snug, and you might want to lube it
with a drop of 3-in-1 oil..
the Hodad is a trooper!
good luck,
dp
