Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 It was over by the Suitland Federal Center, pretty early in the morning. Silver Hill and 5 or Silver Hill and 414....On an SUV if I remember correctly.Actually, I don't remember if it was even on a Maryland license plate. There are enough military folk working here it could have been any state, so it might not actually have been you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmatthes Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Guess that wasn't mine - I don't go anywhere near Suitland, and my tags aren't on an SUV. I know there's a PA plate with that in the Harrisburg area, but maybe you saw a VA plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly don't remember it being Maryland.For that matter, it could even have been Florida or Texas, I see those all the time in the area, among other out-of-state plates, due to Andrews AFB being right across I-95, and Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling being close by, too.

Michael_B Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 You may have seen something like this before, but it was the first time I remember seeing it: on TGP someone was advertising a "Road Worn" Strat as being in like new condition. I don't think he was trying to be funny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucSulla Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) I have it on good authority that this is the precise moment when America won the Cold War.

gorch Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Just had some morning fiddling with the all alder MIK Standard having single coils in it. Played into the VAC 25. Classy!Alder and single coils are a great duo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 For me, at least, "didn't bond with it" actually means "there's some other guitar that has attracted my attention and I've talked myself into letting this one go to get the cash for the other one". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthes Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Or it usually means, "well I don't like it enough to keep it, but honesty might kill my sale".For me, at least, "didn't bond with it" actually means "there's some other guitar that has attracted my attention and I've talked myself into letting this one go to get the cash for the other one".

Jumping to mind are a couple of PRSs that I picked up in a guns-for-guitars trade. Something about their esthetics turns me off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The inspiration for my comment regarding "bonding" was the fact that I'm buying back a Cali Elite that, at the time of selling, I claimed I didn't bond with.

LucSulla Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 Sometimes it takes awhile to find the right niche for them as well. The Standard I was going to sell wound up being a metal machine, but I did really know that until I got to play it through an amp that was really opened up. I don't own another guitar that is as balanced and articulate but still totally nasty at high volume and gain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Now that I have a virtually perfect shredder stable, replete with ebony fretboards, stainless steel frets, extended fret quantities, great tone, some rarities, and trems that stay in tune for weeks, I suddenly feel the need to start working on jazz chord shapes, comping, and chord-melody standards. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caddie Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I just joined a country band. I think I am going to play my standard in it as my main ax because it's about time someone played country on a standard. ...or played rock on a standard in key and tempo with a country band that happens to be playing at the same time. Ha! Done that: At the time I was thinking how playing in a rock band would be waaaay better. You are one bad ass lookin mofo. Little sneer, nerdy glasses, black curled up hat. Where's the swirly gig with the bottle of Schlitz? Stay thirsty my friend. Cheers! Noonan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Every time I see a European model in an advertisement, I think, "What's so attractive about heroin addiction?"I think I'll right a song including a lyrical version of that line.

BubbaVO Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I've never been able to find a PRS that just felt right. They're beautiful, well balanced and very well made. But with those first couple of strums of the strings I never felt that "vibe". Some people fit a PRS very well, I'm not one of them...yet. So I don't begrudge anyone not bonding with a guitar.

Michael_B Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Apparently, it's well-known and almost legendary, but TIL:On "Won't Get Fooled Again" (and most of Who's Next), Townshend played a Gretsch 6120 into a Bandmaster. I had always assumed it was one of his Gibsons into a Hi-Watt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
