  1. Do the new vinyls have any better qualities that the old ones had...such as less surface noise due to better (new?) materials? Just wondering.
  2. I still have my Sansui turntable that's about 32 years old(!!)and still works great! I think I replaced a belt once. It has an EMprie cartridge that's still going strong. I had the stock one and possibly a Shure in there at other times. I also still have all my old vinyl. So, many memories!
  3. Guy in between the two could be a roadie, or a typical guitarist with his arms crossed thinking he could play it better, or both! Nice rhythm parts and solo! I remember when I first heard that solo and said WTF!
  4. Yeah, but I bet she'll score higher in her SAT test than you did! Man, some of these young guitarist coming up...scary.
  5. Weirdest thing; I JUST looked up Topo Gigio yesterday because my sis in law named her dog that...interesting!
  6. For both, if he's doing it right! I home-brew. I have 2 kits to brew but just haven't had the time lately.
  7. Thanks for all the info! I checked on my cheapie and it's a Hohner Old standby in C ...so I guess I could cross it to play in G. It was only like 10 bucks or so and it included a booklet and DVD. Good enough for where I'm at, especially since I haven't actually "played" it yet!
  8. What does the cross harp actually mean? Why select A for playing in E? I bought a cheapy from MF awhile back and haven't learned a thing. It had basic instructions but ...any tips? What about blowing separate notes?...any tips appreciated!!! I'm, not going to invest too much time on this so I'll probably always suck but what's the fastest way to sound like you sorta know what you're doing?!
  9. OK, back on target. The work you did on the cab is top notch - you could sell these things! Also, I wish I kept my EV but needed (probably just wanted) the money at the time.
  10. OK, makes sense. It's like (I believe) the proper pronunciation for Porsche is Por-sha as that's what the guys name was...Ferdinand Porsche. So, I hate when people call it Porsh. If I'm wrong I apologize and please correct me! It's kind of like how Walther guns (which I own) are pronounced like you think it should be Wal-Ther but the correct pronunciation is Val-ter because there's no TH sound in German (at least that's what I've been told). But, everyone's Americanized it and calls it Wal-ther...even me. Not sure why the Por-sha thing bothers me so much!
  11. YOu said Tee Lee? Is that how's it's pronounced? I just always said it like it looks; theel...
  12. Haha! I thought the thread title meant they had strings on sale at a place called first fret!!
  13. ^^^Nice boobs, cute face...reminds me of Linda Ronstats daughter. Nice guitar playing - I like it.
  14. I guess it depends on if you're talking about the general public or guitarists...but anyway... Riot,Loudness, King's X and Laurie Freelove.
  15. I always thought the curved end of the neck (where it joins the body) reminded me a LOT of early ('60's, '70's) import guitars And the curved end of the Starcaster headstock reminds me a lot of a penis! :-) Hmmm, somethings are better left unsaid, but thanks for sharing!
  16. Fender already has a Starcaster cheap beginner guitar out (not the same guitar I know). http://www.zzounds.com/item--FENSTARCASTER That would be like how HAmer named their cheap line Slammer just to confuse people about the proper pronunciation of HAmer!
  17. Yeah, I always felt that if these damn customers would just leave me alone I could run my business!
  18. Picky bitches! She is SO hot, sings well, plays fine and she's SO hawt! Check out her Kiss Me version from six pence none the richer. It shows a softer vocal quality. Anyway, check out this link as well. A very talented computer artist painting a picture of her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UamPpTSM2mc
  19. The M22SD was a good pickup - great sound...to me anyway.
  20. Tapes? Haha! I just recently digitally recorded 20 hours of song ideas/riffs that were on tape...down to just a couple hours or so. I then burned all the tapes on the driveway to dispose of the evidence! It was kind of cathartic. I usually am most prolific when life is tough...suffering through things. Hard life = good songs...for me anyway...and most blues players! Here's a free songwriting course from Boston College of Music. I did it and it was fun and makes you work like Polara said. https://www.coursera.org/course/songwriting?from_restricted_preview=1&course_id=970262&r=https%3A%2F%2Fclass.coursera.org%2Fsongwriting-001%2Fauth%2Fauth_redirector%3Ftype%3Dlogin%26subtype%3Dnormal%26visiting%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fclass.coursera.org%252Fsongwriting-001%252Fwiki%252Fview%253Fpage%253Dcourseschedule Hope this helps! Good luck!
  21. With all the blood there's no need for chain lube.
  22. That's what I do w/ my Husqvarna . Works for me as I don't have that much to cut down around my house. This saw will just be handed down when I die.
  23. New Belgium Brewing CO. from Colorado; Fat Tire is one my favorites. Beers from Sweetwater, ATL, GA I like a lot of imports from all over. From Mexico I like Dos Equis, Tecate and Negro Modelo. Of course I'm partial to my own homebrew!
