Re: NGD - This Time, It's Twangy!

I really like the head-stock. The little bump looks like a flag on a note on a staff kinda-ish. It's just the right proportion.

Re: New (to me) Larrivee LV-03

LaSiDo (Norman, Art & Luterie, Simon & Patrick, Godin & Seagull) doesn't make Larivee, but they may all come from Quebec. Wouldn't have have known if I didn't have a Norman. And yes, that is a ridiculous stroke of luck.

Re: Where do you Practice?

I mostly play a ukulele laying in bed watching television. I'm a multi-tasker. I'm not sure it's really practice--just getting in my 10,000 hours 'til I can say I gave it a good attempt. For a while I'd play a short scale bass in bed watching television. Neither bother my wife much.

Re: Yet another bluetooth/wireless question

I tried using my bluetooth transmitter on an old 80's yamaha keyboard w/dinky speakers. Ran it to a pretty good bluetooth speaker that luckily can also do patch cable. Latency was awful. Too awful to continue playing w/out bending your brain. Strange--I use the same transmitter/speaker for televisio...

Re: Thinking About Putting a Pickguard on My Jaco Tribute Fretless

I'm thinking without the guard it looks like the guard's missing--probably because of the control plate shape.

Re: Thoughts about a replica build.

I recon you can hide anything you'd like under that bridge cover thingy, but you can't palm-mute. I've never understood bridge covers--definitely understand why they get removed.

Just to be "that guy"--It's not a monolith if it's made of metal. "Lith", indicates it's made of rock.

Re: When Something Stands for Nothing

I hear "China Grove" (especially in the intro) and Gary Newman-without a piano so it might be Warren Zevon (vocal parts) going back and forth. Nothing wrong with that at all. thanks.

Re: Do stickers bother you?

I'd think there'd be no problem if the guitar is otherwise okay--as above Goo Gone or carefully used nail polish remover work magic. Is your concern with fade of the uncovered areas?
