SD is getting old and making a last ditch money grab before retiring to some deserted island

Like this?🤣

Thanks, i have quite a few other CD players but prefer to use this particular one for nostalgic reasons 👍 Thanks, I'll give them a shot

I like the double cream humbucker on this one better but not the bashed in "dented" lower jack area 😢 or maybe the photo is exaggerated?

That's badass at a great price too! 😍

Hey, Any of you guys fix or know someone that repairs old Sony CD Walkmans?.. I was planning on using this for a bedroom type set up, but there's no output on either the headphone or line out and would like it repaired... it might not be cost-effective, but as it turns out, it's supposed to be one of the best Discman's ever produced "soundwise"😳 plus I have a soft spot for nostalgic things 😃 I'd attempt to repair it myself however, without opening it, I'm guessing parts are much too tiny with SMD technology

Looks like it sold already

Cool post Saul, thanks for sharing... I must admit, of all the things that have gone by the wayside, I miss Radio Shack the most... though I know you can buy everything online, there's just something about being able to walk into a brick and mortar with a list to hand pick your components 😪

🙏

I accidentally double posted 😃

Yes, D'Addario manufactures their own strings in-house, including drawing their own wire and producing various types of metal windings, some of which are designed with a more textured feel (often described as "rough" or "bright" by players). Key details about D'Addario’s manufacturing and string materials: In-House Manufacturing: D'Addario makes over 95% of their products in the U.S., controlling the entire process from raw material drawing to packaging. "Rough" or Textured Strings: ProSteels: These are stainless steel strings known for a very bright, high-output sound and a, often described as, "rougher" or "stickier" feel under the fingers compared to nickel. Uncoated Wires: Standard nickel-wound strings, while generally smooth, can feel more textured than coated alternatives. Materials Used: D'Addario uses high-carbon steel for cores (including their own "NY Steel") and wraps them with various materials, including nickel-plated steel, stainless steel, phosphor bronze, and 80/20 bronze. Quality Control: They use diamond dyes to draw wire and maintain tight tolerances,, aiming for a "consistent" feel, though different materials like stainless steel are inherently more textured than nickel.

That's a great deal 👍

Hey Let me know if you need another artery 🤣

Wow, that piano player is 🔥

Such a great guitarist but a tragic ending by suicide, after dealing with cancer

Nice!.. That sounds like a great road trip... I grew up in Daly City, right down the street from the Cow Palace... at the time, the Bay Area was such a cool place to live with an epic music scene... I was so fortunate to be able to see TONS of concerts!.. great memories~ wishing you and your wife a very fun and safe road trip 😃

Yikes!.. sending prayers🙏 And here's to a speedy recovery🍺 Oh, keep us posted~

What a voice 👍

Love it! 👍

Yep, it's nice that he reimbursed you however, it shouldn't have happened in the first place... in all the decades I've used D'Addario, I've never had that problem.

Orrrrrrr~

Pretty cool, thanks for sharing... I thought about getting one of these for my pool area, but it might be just a little bit too much... think I'll just get a large boombox instead 😂

Lost in the darkness I fade from the light Faith of my father, my brother, my Maker and Savior Help me make it through the night Blood on my conscience And murder in mind Out of the gloom I rise up from my tomb into impending doom

I haven't heard it in such a long time, but I do remember liking his music as well.
