    Starfire tinkering continued

    Hey, listen, I forgot you mentioned the knock, and I'm listening on my headphones, and at the end of the video I was about to take off my headphones to go answer the door. :p That is some really nice bass tone. Wish there were basses that sounded like that off the rack without so much tweaking!

    New Warning Feature?

    I actually get sucked into necrothreads when someone else resurrects it. So if the first person ignores the warning, then... it's fair game! :)

    Hard shell case for T-100 slim Jim S/N 43549

    I have a case for an Epiphone Dot that works well with my late 50's T100, just to add another data point.

    New Hartford Guild acoustics ????

    I get my guitars serviced at Keith Holland's Guitar Hospital, and the last time I was there in December to get my Guilds treated, I was shown a Oxnard D40. I almost flinched at how light it was, especially since I'm used to the weight of my DV52 and JV52, each with two pickups installed (K&K and...

    Madison Cunningham - "Pin It Down"

    I hear the genetic material of Jeff Buckley and Thom Yorke mixed together, gently sprinkled on a serving of Bjork. I don't find new music much anymore, but this was a pleasant discovery. Thanks walrus!!

    Madison Cunningham - "Pin It Down"

    What I've found is when doing a studio recording, the anxiety of getting a "clean perfect take" often drains the energy out of the music. At least I find it to be so in my case (as a very unprofessional, undisciplined, and untrained musician). The best recordings are the ones where I don't care...

    The time before Let's Talk Guild

    Before joining LTG, I had more money and more closet space. But less Guilds. So the verdict - worth it.

    Is It Weird To Be Sad?

    Thanks, that helps! I find myself enamoured with the Recording King guitars, particularly the M9M series, because wife of a friend asked if a CostCo Fender guitar might be a good instrument to buy for her husband (his other acoustic somehow bit the dust). I convinced her to do no such thing...

    Is It Weird To Be Sad?

    OK, I think I'm not sad anymore. It's funny. I don't know if I really wanted the guitar. I mean, an all-solid-wood guitar, a concert cousin to the RD-M9M, which I bought for a friend, for around $250 - what's not to love? If I really really wanted it, I would've pulled the trigger. I think...

    And now for something completely different!

    Sorry, George, but those are some of the worst looking Stratocasters I've ever seen.

    Picks! Or, I'm finally figuring out my m20 (Oxnard).

    I remember years ago, reading about Eric Johnson's pursuit of pure tone, and he actually said (if my memory serves me) that the type of cable and - get this - the brand of battery you use in your pedals all make a difference in the sound produced. I'm not surprised that the pick material makes...
