They do affect tone.I was worried about which dresses to bring

i have a set of those somewhere (they strung the NR prior to shipping with a fresh set)…i’ll look for them..For sure - I think I have D'Addario NY/XL's on mine.
Sounds like a great youboob video to me....ideally we debunk lots of these myths at the TBird Club Western Conference Meet…..whaddya say @JIO ?….your 64 and my 68 trough the same amp (strings) and settings?….
I like the way you angled the spoiler to lift the back to put extra down-force on the (front) driving wheels.
I’ve always considered big wings on street cars as a very handy thing to have…..
….at tail gate parties.

I wanna be there for that test.
wanna be there?….in case you didn’t know, you’re manning the 68…
Myles, he put it on the front to stop the tilt forward.
I think I’ll give him “could do better” on his mods report card.
On a lighter note...
SW had a demo Burgundy Embassy base that was missing the reflector off one of the knobs.
got a couple more bucks off that, but still not as good as my locked in price from last year, I'm still getting the green one when it comes in.
the last pictures I posted reminded me I need to trim my toenails, so I have to do that before the end of the week when my new base arrives... or not...
prolly defret the green one this time...
crap! I forgot to search on the interwebz to find out if I can slap with it....

All mine sound different with a variety of different strings and in some cases, pickups. The two that are closest to each other are my Epi Silverburst and my Pelham Blue Epi, both Limited Edition Custom Shops. The ‘15 has its own unique tones, even in full humbucker mode. And the ‘21 NR has a different tone too. I love ‘em all.
Wait. I thought tone was all in the fingers. Has the science changed?

You noticed my speed secret. I was trying to keep them on the ground. Front wheel drive 90s Superturds, I mean birds, are physics defying animals.

I thought that about the Riddler in the new movie.
Just saw in Instagram (or on Instagram, sorry I dont remember correct use of, in, on, at
)
A HS bestie's older brother blew up his Chevelle big block V8. In the interest of budget (both initial layout and ongoing expenses, since he was in college), he put a smaller V8 in. He then found that somewhere between 70 and 80MPH, he lost steering ability as the front end became airborn. This had a deleterious effect on his drive time between Atlanta and Augusta on weekends. Too bad he didn't know your trick. And him an engineering student!
I notice your spoiler was bolt-on, and it doesn't look like mahogany. Strange bird.
I thought that tone was in the pedals...
Other than MitG (which is fine), those are most of my favorite Tull albums. Sounds like a great concert!
