Hitting the Gym

Just finished my 5k treadmill run at the gym. I've been trying to get in two to three runs a week and I feel like it's beginning to pay off. My times are improving and I just feel better during and after my run. My primary goal is just to keep my heart healthy and to burn up some calories. Anyway so far so good.

Deluxe Nashville Tele

I haven't played my Deluxe Nashville Tele in quite some time. The action was just a mess and it was buzzing most anywhere above the twelfth fret. I had been meaning to get it in to the shop for a setup for some time now but just never seemed to get around to it. So I decided to roll up my sleeves and do the setup myself. After a slight tweak on the truss rod, bridge saddle height and intonation she's playing beautifully again. Now I'll just have to give her a workout at church Sunday morning.

Update: Played her Sunday morning and now I remember how much I enjoy playing this guitar. We did a four song worship set and I think I used four of the five pickup positions and each one just shined. I'll definitely be working her back into the Sunday morning rotation.
