    Bruce Springsteen "Glory Days" Video & Right Hand Technique

    Sitting in a restaurant and the "Glory Days" video came on (I know..."video." How quaint). As a child of the '80s, I'd seen this video countless times when the M in MTV stood for "music." I owned "Born in the USA" on cassette. I never paid attention to his playing until now. His right-hand...

    Is a Warmoth guitar worth $2k?

    Holy Necro-post, Batman.

    Warmoth raises shipping prices? Yes or no?

    If anyone has ever made and sold anything, shipping is not where one should be seeking profit. If one does, then one has a flawed business model. While the sticker shock is an eye-opener for us consumers, I understand just barely enough of the business model that WM is probably just as...

    HH, 5-way, 2 toggles, 1V 1T

    One miniswitch is a kill switch and the other controls the LEDs that are obviously going to be installed on the guitar ;)

    Chambering and double battery box

    Who is playing an electric guitar outside in winter on a regular enough basis where this is a concern? :ROFLMAO:

    Angled screws for neck pocket

    This reminds me of the case modding trend of the '90s - '00s (which I admittedly participated in, because it was fun -- much like building custom guitars!). The more fans you had in the case of your computer, and especially with colorful LEDs, the more bad-ass the mod project. Who cares if it...

    My Strat's "historically significant" ... now what do I do?

    We are farther way from 1987 than 1987 was to the Beatles' first album.

    Question regarding installing recessed Tune-O-Matic posts

    Yes I have, and it's fine as-is. No need to overthink it.

    Second Guessing My Order - HSS Wiring

    Indeed, as the cavity is going to be routed the same, regardless of how many control holes in the order. And there would've been the "placeholder" location for that third opening anyway. But, for the joy of building & learning, forcing yourself to stay within the constraints of two pots would...

    Describe your project.

    Second Guessing My Order - HSS Wiring

    Any reason not to drill that third hole yourself if you're second-guessing ordering only two?

    Angled screws for neck pocket

    If one plays like Billy Sheehan, that's great, but as he even said around 2:00, most players don't need that.

    Switching guitars at a gig

    Or has the environment with the toxic guitar people gotten so bad they're coming over here now? ;) :D

    Can I still have fun playing bass with no band?

    It absolutely is. I've been playing bass for almost 30 years and there's always more to learn. The fun is when I'm out and I hear some random song playing. I focus on the bass of that song if it's particularly interesting and then make a note to myself to try it out the next time. Despite...
