Title: Help! Part of my inlay fell off!
Post by: Andromeda on May 28, 2012, 09:36:34 PM

A piece of my early 900 series inlay fell off! I hope it is not a sign of something wrong with the guitar.

I will take it into my guitar tech to fix. I have never had this happen before.

First question: Where's your humidity?

We have had one heck of spring. We had a run of 80 temps in March then an April snow storm and twice this month it has 90 and it was 91 today. It is only going to be in the low 60s by the weekend. It has been very difficult to keep track of the humidity and with up and down weather like this it has been a loosing battle.

If you are the original owner, I'd get in touch with Taylor.

Are those the original strings?

I just saw this and I'm horrified.  How did you remedy this?  Even if humidity levels are less than perfect, should this happen?  I don't think so!  Geesh.  Super glue maybe?
