Time to bring my Gibson SG in for a full tune-up. Where can I get it done, aside from that huge place in Insadong?

Is there a shop located more south, preferably in the Anyang area?

The problem is my truss rod needs adjusting and I have no tools. The guitar's still very playable, but has a significant curve in the neck.

I don't want to take it far as I use it every Sunday.

Dunno if you have the kind of gear to fix it, Stevie, but if you do and if you can work your magic on it I'd definitely buy you a pint.

All you need is an allen key to adjust the truss rod. I've got a set, but thing is, I wouldn't be confident about adjusting a truss rod on a guitar that's not my own. I know someone who might be able to do it - Taylor, you know from that f*cking ACE band Sparrowhawk? I'll have a word with tonight.

Incidentally, folks, Sparrowhawk are appearing IN PERSON to perform a rock 'gig' at Club Psycho in Anyang tomorrow night (that's May 30th). And you know what else? It's FREE! You would be an absolute c*nt to miss it.

If all I need's an allen key, then something must be weird with my guitar, as there's no hole in the truss rod. Hmm...

Not sure if I'm going to be @ the show on Saturday.... we'll see.

Is Taylor the Korean dude?

It's probably covered. Has your guitar got a plastic thing just next to the nut?

Yes, Taylor's the Korean guitarist. And why wouldn't you be at the show? You'd have to have a pretty damn good excuse to miss a treat like SPARROWHAWK.
