I've been practicing a lot lately, stressing chord theory. I guess I'm getting better.
I tried a Musket, I wasn't all that impressed. IB Static Fuzz & T-Rex Fuel Tank in the mail tomorrow then I'm done gear chasing for awhile.

What did you not like about that the Musket? I've been mulling over checking one out. @ampegfuzz said he didn't dig it, either.

I did, however, get an EQD Terminal Fuzz and holy sh!t it's awesome.

It was a muff, it did the muff thing but I just felt like it didn't do it as well as some others or it wasn't really notable in any way. Really nothing wrong with it
I didn't feel the need to try to make myself like it like I would have if I dropped cash on it. (If that makes sense) I also only played with it for about 15 minutes, so take this with a grain of salt.

The Static Fuzz came in today, it's pretty cool. Closer to what I'm looking for so I'm gonna keep it awhile.

Leela jumped and nipped a ladies purse, said sorry and moved on. then a vaguely homeless looking dude took after me and Leela with pepper spray screaming at me He was gonna shoot her and me if I stopped him.

Need to really work on Leela but Jesus. We got away.

New GC opened in town, decided I'd go right before close to avoid crowds. Packed as hell, two live bands, a fake Elvis and two hundred guitards fighting for sonic dominance lol. I got shifted to three different lines to buy some strings. Then finally got to the front accidentally wiped my coupon email and when I went to pay cash she said card only line, then walked away for like 10 minutes to get changed instead of my offer to use my card... So I got the death stare from everyone for that.

Reminds me, I need to find my tuck fexas shirt.

I'd never seen someone whip out a mace can before, and it was all black and tacticool so I figured at first it was an extendable baton. As such I was trying both move away and figure out what I had nearby to defend myself with. Luckily my strategy of *sidestep behind a hipster who had no idea what was the hell going on* combined with a well placed "shag you doing?! Don't spray that shït!" Worked without getting eye burns and embattled with the homeless.

When I think about it, the only thing I can imagine myself doing is grabbing dudes mace hand and putting him down, which is probably a terrible idea

Wham-tastic!

Eventually new pickups, still dunno what to pick. Not familiar with many humbucker purchase options with three in mind. Were these progressively more powerful torward the bridge, or all one output?

I'm stuck between
1. classic 3 buckers
2. Buckers with middle p90
3. Adapters for a tele pickup set and a middle bucker
4. ??

Not to mention endless wiring potential.
