  8. I wonder what the differences are between that 50th anniversary MS and my 92-94 Rudolph Schenker Signature V?.. i'd like to check one out, but will not be buying at $17K 😳
  9. Honestly, just trial-and-error... but they come different packs of 3 with either the same or different angle degrees, and different height thickness... I just used a combination of measuring, eyeballing and guessing πŸ˜‚
  10. I personally do not own any guitars with a micro tilt, simply because I do not like the idea of a gap... I do, however, have tons of guitars with shims and have noticed a HUGE difference between a small piece of a heel shim to a full size wooden wedge... to the point where I have replaced all my "shimmed" guitars with full sized "full contact" wedge... and believe it or not, "in time" those little shims will warp or bend the heel area of your neck... first photo is what I consider a shim vs a full wedge.
  11. It's been over 20-30 ears and my ears are still ringing 😳
  12. Blackstar makes some surprisingly good sounding amps πŸ‘
  13. WHAT?.. Pfft... oh yeah, you're the Tears for Fears fanboi huh?.. But I do have to to agree with you on the commie remark though.🀣

  16. And I hope And I dream And I pray That sometime... we'll find a way πŸ™
  17. Price of tickets did it in for me... I was planning to see Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, but they want $200+ a ticket... add tax, surcharge, parking & food/drinks... plus I'm older and the women aren't what they used to be... fuck that! 🀣
  18. That's great news... It looks awesome, The treble will calm down a bit once it's broken in and becomes more rounded/fuller sounding
  19. I copied this from the internet... πŸ˜ƒ The Sony D-25 (often marketed as the D-250 outside the US) is widely regarded in audiophile circles as one of the best-sounding portable CD players ever produced, often praised for its "warm" and analog-like sound, sometimes even challenging high-end home CD players. Released around 1989-1990, it is known for its robust metal-bodied construction, 4-times oversampling, and lack of digital sound processing (DSP), which audiophiles often credit for its high-fidelity performance. Key Aspects of the Sony D-25/D-250: Sound Quality: The sound is frequently described as "gorgeous" and "glorious," with very defined and deep bass, smooth highs, and a, surprisingly deep soundstage for a portable unit. It provides a very high level of inner resolution and is often considered superior in sound to the later, more feature-rich D-555. Build and Design: It features a, durable, metal-bodied design. It has a simple, clean, and retro aesthetic, lacking the plastic, cheap feel of later models. Performance: It has a powerful headphone amp that can easily drive even demanding, high-impedance headphones, such as the Sennheiser HD580 or HD600, directly. Features: It includes a line-out, a backlit display (when connected to AC power), and can display "Index" markers. Drawbacks: It lacks anti-skip technology (anti-shock). It is also known for having short battery life, typically lasting only 3.5 to 4 hours on a full charge. It often requires service due to aging components, particularly the "middle gear" in the laser sled assembly. Price and Availability: The unit is considered a "cult classic" and can be quite expensive, often selling on eBay for prices ranging from roughly $400 to over $800, depending on condition. Verdict: The Sony D-25 is an exceptional, high-fidelity portable CD player, perfect for stationary or careful listening, but not suitable for active use due to the lack of anti-skip protection. It is a prized collector's item that offers, arguably, the best sound quality in a vintage portable, but requires a, significant investment, both in purchase price and potential, repairs.
