My next door neighbors are friends with the mastodon guys, and I met Bill at a Xmas party of theirs. I had a super awkward interaction with him, too. After reading your account, I'm going to deduce that it's him, not us.

It's worth adding that none of these solutions will solve the problem of soldering all of the conductors, only to realize that you didn't put the barrel piece of the connector onto the cable first. I've made hundreds of cables and I still do that from time to time.

I have some something similar, but I mount the opposite sex connector in the block of wood. 1/4" jack in the wood for soldering 1/4” instrument cables- insert plug into jack, solder cable to lugs. It makes more of a difference with XLR, as the jack can serve as a heatsink. The pins get hot, but transfer heat to the jack connector before the plastic gets soft and the pins can get wonky. Same with female XLRs, mount a male panel-mount connector in the wood, and attach the unsoldered female connector to it, then solder cable.

Each day, the learning continues. All the Newports I've played or owned had an electrosocket jack.

Looks like the output electrosocket Jack has been replaced. At least I've never seen a Newport with that oval plate.

in case no one else says it, yer crazy Shawn.

I'll say this. I could easily forgive her for a LOT. Way more so than most, including for that song. But the decision to destroy dude's GT500 is a grievance I can't abide.

I thought your former Shishkov DC would certainly make an appearance here. I think that was my favorite DC top so far. Love this Huber, too. Have yet to play one.

Some pretty interesting gear in that seller's shop. A couple vintage Marshalls and a '63 Barney Kessel. Even a Teuffel (#69!) https://reverb.com/shop/douglass-gear-bazaar-273

I'll try to make it on Sunday, will bring my 16 yo daughter who is just starting to see the magic in these wood & wire things we obsess over.

I'd pay good money to see Rush in 1981. Skynyrd in '77, too.

Yeah it appears your choices are: Buy three sets of strings for $33 Buy six sets of strings for $66 Buy six sets and two 1/4 cables for $40.

I had this happen, but only with "watched" items, never for having added something to my cart. But, yeah I figure it's a tool for prospective sellers to review leads (that buyers supplied themselves by watching the item), then offer discounts to the leads he chooses, either a blanket 5-10% to sent to all watchers, or excluding those with poor feedback, etc...

I just picked up a couple of these sets, besides being a pretty good deal on these strings, (<$7/set), they throw in a 10' D'Addario 1/4" cable. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/NYXL10463P10--daddario-nyxl1046-nyxl-nickel-wound-electric-guitar-strings-with-10-foot-instrument-cable-010-046-regular-light-3-pack Free shipping in CONUS, too. 😎
