Re: Odd Rondo interaction
I can't look at his listings. 9 string 10 string fanned frets etc. Sad the old days are gone of choosing between 7 models of LP's. $600 is too much for a a LP copy. I've bought studios for less than that.

Thanks for the very descriptive picture. I've never tried one or had the urge to try one. Think i am still in that boat though.

2024 Yard sale, Flea market, CL, FB-MP finds
Can't believe i didn't start this thread in January. I'm probably forgetting some stuff but here is the latest. Yard sale find. Nicest day out so far this year, it hit 50. Strat copy, red, looks like a cheap Squier. No decals so maybe they were sanded off? Paint was really nice so even the body was ...

Re: Grand Marquis 97 vintage FS near me
Not like the old days, now your computer has to match or it may not even start. My mustang is in the garage over the winter, I think there's a mouse nest in the bellhousing. When I started it up last week I could smell something burning after it got up to temp. Hope I don't have to pull the trans, w...

Re: Having problems with my nut
You can try a wound string for a file. I don't like shims, I would try glueing it first with wood glue. Hiroshima files are one of my favorite purchases, though not cheap.

Even the 99 and up 4.6 will be a little better. Isn't cost effective to spend coyote bucks in a 27 year old car.

Re: HEY JOE!
Wasn't hey joe a cover when Jimi did it? Yes, this is true. There is some dispute over who actually wrote it, though a guy named Billy Roberts registered a copyright on it in 1962. However, like a lot of old blues songs, it was being performed as a public domain song long before this, and long befo...

How do you switch strap buttons while playing? Maybe there is 2 for neck dive.

Re: what tv shows everyone into right now
Haven't watched TV in 27 years. Local weather that's it. Hate youtube unless it's showing me how to change a headlight bulb without taking the front bumper off. Wife has CSI, NCIS, crime dramas on as long as she is awake.

Re: Replacing nut
Measure twice cut once. Tusq makes really nice ones, you have to measure the height, width, spacing etc. Bottom also might be flat or curved. They make string spacing rulers which are very nice to have. But, that all being said, you might be better off bringing it somewhere than investing in the too...

Used to listen to shortwave 25 years ago. You could get other countries versions of our news and politics. I would think any propaganda stations you would be able to figure out after a while. I have a few JRC branded shortwaves and i could pick up just about any worldwide stations with a long wire a...

Re: Ballroom Blitz
Classic, and the women in high heels. LP seems to be a copy? I remember Krokus doing this song, I think we tried to cover this song in 85 but don't ever remember playing it live.

Re: Did You Ever Play A Song Wrong?
"- Led Zeppelin, 'Heartbreaker' (as mentioned by @toomanycats ): the out of control bends in the middle break solo are played by pushing the strings behind the nut (between the nut and tuners)."
And "The lemon song", both require a tele and a tonebender mk2.

We have these white caterpillars with black spikes, sound exactly like the reaction you get from them. Sodium bicarbonate paste, antihistamines, etc, appears to be the same solutions.

Re: For Trade Gibson 300k Linear long shaft pots
Probably the only way to do it (with a useable sound) you would have to lower the value to at least 250k, then it's kind of no go for humbuckers.

May be interested but the linear taper, not a fan of that either. I think there was a way to add a resistor across 2 of the lugs to emulate a sort of audio taper, will research that. Came across old stock NOS jacks a while back but not wanting to part with them as i use them in pedals. What kind of ...
