How do you make God laugh?
Tell him your plans.

Have a good one.

Back in 2020 you were clearing out your garage and getting rid of guitars and music related gear because you said you no longer could play them or have any part of that former life. Now you're buying guitars. Am I wrong here? @sean92008

Yep. I used to be able to do a whole lot more.

There's tricky little thing though, There is a producer whose last project was released on record store day this year who wants me to pull out a bunch of old songs and do them up right.

It is too much work, but there's a lot of motivating factors.

I also like the idea of reapproaching stuff from a different perspective. Instead of saying "I love you,"  I could now say "do I love you" or "is love real?"

All I've done at this stage is buy two guitars, some software and pull out some old tracks. I have some two-track DATs of rehearsals that are the only versions of songs ever recorded that I can pull out instrumentation, remove other (still living) musicians and go at it again.

Maybe I'll block the vibrato instead...  It'll be gentler than this.

Not even with Duke Fame's dick.

Not even with Duke Fame's dick.

Probably the correct answer.

Seen this?

Hey KSM,

Do you really think that Norm first met that guy on his podcast underneath the Queensboro Bridge, jerking off punks for $15 a man?

[sean92008]

Is there a problem that I had a bigger smile over my new soldering station that I paid $20 for (50% off at Amazon) than I had for two pretty damn good guitars?

PS I think this is the first time that I have bought and put on .009s on a guitar in a while. Should have done that years ago. It's a lot easier and Strat spankier too.

The Classic Vibe I got has 2mm action on the bass, maybe 1.25mm on the treble and I'm only getting a little buzz on the plain G string. I will dink with that later after I get acclimated to playing, I'm pretty ham-handed.

Hell, I've been known to play lead bass and strum it as well. When there 's only three instrumentalists, sometimes strumming the bass is needed, hahaha.

LOLOL! I'm laughing like Gilbert.

Ya know. I gotta pour a drink for this one. Much to address here at first glance.

So, you found JOY in a soldering station! Greater JOY than that of TWO guitars combined. *well that's not insane* 

I agree, 9s are the shit - best of all worlds. @Bart Ell would have us believe that he strings his with custom made 15's! 

"I will dink with that later" <-------------- DINK! ?

It angers me when a bass player wants to do NON-Bass-Player stuff on a BASS guitar!  When the hell unless you're Lemmy is it ok to strum a bass? And play LEAD on a bass? oh for shit sakes

I'm sorry for coming across a tad harsh, but really man.
