Fogerty recorded a lot of the instruments himself. He was notorious for going to Fantasy Studios after hours and redubbing tracks.

Same. Once dialed in, I’ve yet to experience any problems with my Proto ll vibrato. I did swap out the string lock for a Stringlock Pro. Works like a charm.

Dang, Beau! You’ve really made that Splawn your own. Killer clip!

You figured wrong, Skippy! How the hell does a MIJ replica come with Gibson USA pickups?

Ooh that ARIA! Hate the LPC, though. You know, 3pc-top and all. 🤣

Ronnie Montrose’s widow is gonna be PISSED when, “Stripe”, sells for multi-$100ks.

So, they used a 3pc top? Big-flippin’-whoop! Wouldn’t be a 70’s LPC RI without one, now would it?

I checked out one at my local GC today. It was the white on black model. It was very nicely made. I only played a few chords and checked out the construction. I did not plug it in. It was heavy like a 70s Les Paul should be.

Because they won’t sell as fretless wonders.

Sorry, I see that the nut is on the claw side. Try putting one on the block side of the allen screw. Makes the connection rock solid.

Try adding a second nut the claw side of the Allen screw. Keeps the screw stable.

I used a couple wraps of electrical tape around the Floyd block where it contacts the screw. Can’t help you with the D tuna. I’ve never set one up.

True artists know when to hold back and when to let it rip.

I forgot to mention turmeric. That, too. During the pandemic lockdown, I was very sedentary for a few months. (Q: Who watched every season of Mike and Molly twice? A: Me, that’s who!) I’d fallen off my vitamin regimen for months and started up again, revamping it for my advanced years. After a few weeks, my knee stopped popping/aching and I felt normal again. I can’t say it will work for everyone, but it fixed my shit right quick.

For real. I tea-bagged both handles AND the eq knobs…

I got yer, “comparison”, raht chere (soon to be FS)!:

I got on of these for my Navigator explorer: Explorer HSC

GLWTS!

Outstanding, Brooks. Dig the soft white underbelly graphics on the side.

Glucosamine and/or collagen peptides are good for muscles/joints as you age. Being conscious of a death grip on the neck is important. 5min of slow, easy hand and arm stretches helps, too.

AI or no, it's all for naught. The pedals in this video demo sound raspy and harsh, even when EQ'ed and processed. I guess I could be inspired to rabbit-hole YouTube to find something that sounds decent, but I won't.

Oh. So my brain stuttered. Woopsie.
