Huh. They moved the strap pin.

Yeah, that too. But anyone here would probably relocate it to the neck heel anyway. Fortunately it had already been done on my RNR.

are you getting one?

 

[BklynKen]

are you getting one?

Absolutely not. It would be way too much trouble to get it reversed for me. And I prefer black hardware anyway.

I'm guessing in a couple weeks. Haven't received anything firm; when I check the website with my order number it comes back as still in processing. I'm envisioning the Sweetwater shipment going by barge up the Cumberland River.

No Sacto trips scheduled at this point.

Humm. Might have to start keeping an eye out.

Actually will be heading up I-65 to SW right through town. Does anyone know where to buy tire spike strips? Wait, I think I have some roofing nails somewhere....

If I'm lucky in timing I'll tell you how well your bass plays!

Your drummer has quite the set up. Never seen/heard of a kick cymbal before...

Plays lefty which ain’t optimum for an open mic….

…have you tried closing the mic?

I suspect that it is far more than is needed just for slowing down/pitch shifting etc. for learning a song. Amazing slower downer is $10 on Android, $15 on Apple (apple tax I guess) and $50 for Mac/PC (and doesn't include the ability to connect to spotify). Seems to me that the bargain is on Android. But others may differ - as @GonePlaid says - twitchy zone.

Nice app, might use this when working with the iPhone.

 

[Chucky Stiletti]

ok, better…,…. Notice the Markbass….literally bulletproof to the schmoes that get up…..

 

[TBird1958]

Yummy Greco goodness!

 

[KaraQ]

TBird Pro owners: that knob nearest to bridge is the treble, right ? My ears are p

Yes....Volume nearest pickups, blend just below it. Bass where front output jack is on the older 'birds.

Don't get @BklynKen started on left-handed mics...

California is the trend setter.

If someone with even some modest notoriety were to do it as a joke, I think there's a high likelihood of of others taking it seriously and following along.

I've been using it for awhile on iOS. The ability to connect to Spotify is great. It was probably @PillO who turned me on to it thousands of pages ago.

Gig this afternoon. Rig(L to R- edge of music stand, bushes, mic stand, stool*, more bushes, 1967 GIBSON THUNDERBIRD NR, Rumble 200c, bushes, cart, case, bushes)

[MCF]

How's this?

Wondering if it would look better with a white truss rod cover.
