"Vintage guitars represent a piece of history that can't be replicated"

I think that's where i disagree, I think most coveted vintage guitars can absolutely be replicated. And although I have to concede that I'm no expert, I've heard the same sentiment from folks that I would consider experts. I've recently heard Philip McKnight say as much on one of his Friday podcast/shows.

Personally I'd rather spend 6-7 grand on a gibson custom shop reissue than pony up for a real vintage instrument for 10k+

"The children of time" by Adrian Tchaikovsky might be something like what your looking for.

Sci Fi with spiders point of view. Highly recommend if you don't have arachnophobia.

Lots of typos for someone championing high school english..

So your brilliant analysis that I overlooked in my assessment is that:

"concepts of a plan conveys that one has ideas or concepts of a plan"

Lmao, your brain worms must be starving

'I have Concepts of a plan, I'm not president' That's a weak, dog ate my homework, BS non-answer that any intelligent listener heard and understood as such.

'eating pets' You gonna defend the ex president repeating easily disproven twitter misinfo on the debate stage too? We both know it would've bothered you if Kamala did.

Any major gaffes or mistakes made by Kamala you care to mention? Or was it just her face that you, a paragon of impartiality, object to?

Interesting that Kamalas facial reactions bothered you that much, but apparently Trump's clown faces didn't even rate a mention. It's almost like your not nearly as impartial as your pretending.

Trump looked and sounded like a sloppy bafoon.

Concepts of a plan? Eating pets?

Your huffing weapons grade copium my dude.

 

Does anyone have experience adding a tremolo of any kind onto a guitar? I somehow managed to own a handful of solid body electric guitars without having a trem on any of them.

I've seen bigsby trems with vibramate mounting kits that don't require any drilling to install, but their pretty expensive.

I've also seen the duesenberg tremolo that installs right over the bridge.

I'm considering putting something like that on my les Paul or telecaster. Has anyone done something similar? Is this something I can reasonably do myself? Looking for recommendations and/or advice.

Thanks!

I take it more like that the emperor that twoflower serves is their god, they just call him emperor instead

New to me 2003/4 Godin Kingpin I cleaned it up a bit and put new strings on. Really happy with it.

It probably needs a professional setup, as the action is a bit high, but I was able to set the intonation by nudging the floating bridge.

Sweet guitar! Something special about Les Paul's

Greetings, I do a little IT support for an elderly neighbor (mostly fighting with her printer for her) and she recently fell for one of those fake Microsoft scams, and gave a scammer access to her laptop and hundreds of dollars worth of Nordstrom gift cards..

She's given me the laptop as she's afraid to open it. I'm thinking of formatting the HDs and reinstalling windows, she only uses the laptop for Internet browsing and email, so she's not worried about losing data.

Would this be enough to undo whatever the scammer would have done on the laptop?

Any considerations or advice would be appreciated. Apologies if this isn't an appropriate question for this forum.

Peterson fat shaming that sports illustrated model and acting all moralistic about it is pretty fucking regressive, or does that not count somehow?

What irritates me most isn't the fat shaming, although that's gross on its own, it's when he'll use it as a scapegoat for the downfall of our society. It's not the greedy corporations paying bullshit wages, it's bigger women being allowed to model, thats the root of all our problems..

Press Tab, it shows an overlay for all your buildings where you can see how many people are assigned.

 

So many of my bookmarked guitar resource websites are now dead, RIP stringery and Vanderbilly. Here are my go to YouTube channels and websites for guitar content. Share your favorites!

Justin Guitar Maybe the biggest/best guitar instruction to be found online. I linked to his YouTube channel, but he also has a website with free and paid lessons.

EricHaugenGuitar I really enjoy Eric Haugen's videos, and I've purchased a few of his tabbed out compositions from his website. He has great reviews too, just an authentic positive person, who I enjoy learning from.

PhillipMcKnight The best guitar gear channel I've found. Has a ton of great videos showing how to do simple guitar repairs, reviewing gear etc. Warning Watching potentially dangerous for your wallet

GuitarSite clunky name, great resource for gear research
