I was going to take off the headstock string locks, so that I would get a very indigenous and unique sound from this old thrashed jackson. The neck is glued on in pretty sure and is tuned to D# or halfway up D#. So since I can't get E Standard, my playing abilities are limited because I only copy parts of already existing songs from various albums. But yeah, I'll be sure to oil the top lock on the neck since you've shown me that's important. Must be nice knowing how to play guitar to the max.
