"Slow down there, William Ackshally."

Sperzel seems like one of those companies run by people way older than me who've never really understood this whole "Internet" thing (I'm 52). Their online form is useless as I'm still waiting on a response from 6 years ago :D Narrator voice: he's not really waiting, though. That was just a...

Hell yes, SOAD! It was MTV-X back in the early '00s that was my intro to them. "Sugar" off of their debut album just completely blew me away. That was at a time when metal was surging back after a decade of pompous, self-righteous "alt rock" that had morphed out of grunge as by then, grunge...

And of course, it has to be read in John DeLancie's voice.

I have a tool drawer full of the hex wrenches that came with numerous parts and products, as well as the ones included in the assemble-your-furniture kits, so much so that now, whenever we get a bookcase or desk, I just put the extra wrench in recycling. It was getting to that "hoarding" level.

I made two B-standard tuning guitars on 25.5" scale and used Ernie Ball Not Even Slinky 12-56 on them. One is a reverse Arcade for the extra length, but that doesn't really matter as my other one is a 3x3 headstock config. The one with the reverse Arcade is also a single HB (Seymour Duncan...

So my dumb self didn't measure the post spread before ordering the wrap-around bridge. The bridge I got is too wide, post-to-post, so I have to go back to the TOM/STP config, which means drilling the STP posts after all. But on the plus side, I got the electronics installed, the original...

Although non-WM, my basses have wenge necks. I love them. Super smooth to play, such that my next WM bari build (that I've been planning for over 4+ years so who really knows if/when I'll actually do it....) is slated to have a wenge neck with purpleheart board. I'm not in any position to...

Lots of toothpicks appeared in the break room, inexplicably, soon after.

Only if you take a different approach to phrasing it differently ;)

I challenge that assertion, as they don't have a web ring graphic at the bottom of their homepage, nor do they use the animated GIFs indicating that parts of the site are "under construction." ;)

The LED is the main culprit in my mind.

Since this topic was from 5 years ago, I had to scroll back to see if I'd already replied to it. I don't think I had created an account here yet at the time of this thread.... Yup, looking at my profile, I created this account 3 months after this thread. :) I don't remember how I'd stumbled...

Me when reading BroRob's response: :unsure: "Wait, that's not BroRob's style! Is he okay?" :D "Oh, wait. That's BroRob's style. Yeah, he's okay."

How derivative.... 🙄 😉

Yeah, I can't imagine the SM WOP being anything more special than run-of-the-mill hardware store WOP. SM: $4.72/oz Home Depot: $0.62/oz

But that ONE person on that research station in Antarctica, tho.....

I don't remember what my original hang-up about Jinjer was, but I re-listened recently and ... dang. All I can remember from years ago was "yeah, they're not my thing." And I honestly don't recall why anymore. Tatiana's ability to seamlessly flip between clean & harsh is reminiscent of Alissa...

As my daughter used to say when she was still learning to talk, "so shimey!"

It's not a silly question. It's very common when wanting to do something correctly out of the gate. But while that desire is understandable, there's a tendency of overthink and fall into analysis-paralysis. I say this because I do the same thing, honestly. I want to put together The Perfect...
