  1. Last guitar my brother wants to buy is an ES-355 black beauty like this. I played one at Wildwood for him and it was glorious, but he hemmed and hawed on price and then it was gone. May have to buy one for him someday.
  2. Guy I know up here in the Colorado boonies apparently knows Joe Bonamassa and appreciates his music money.
  3. Petition to change OU fight song from “Boomer Sooner” to “Boozer Loser.”
  4. On a more serious note, some nice value guitars out there for the guitarist in your life. Les Paul Studio Tribute 1986 '52 Reissue Blackguard Tele Sexy Gretsch G2215-P90 Electric Guitar
  5. You didn’t find something for the guitarist in your life?
  6. In case any of you need gift ideas for yourself for Christmas!
  7. To put the Scaramucci unit of time into perspective, it is exactly 1/198th of a Jimbo.
  8. We got a shelter in place order from the sheriff's office over this one. He apparently shot killed 3 people in a neighboring county, fled here, went to our Walmart, bought a bunch of shit, took off... They have no idea where he is now. CUSTER COUNTY, Colo. (KKTV) - The search for a homicide suspect in southern Colorado is still underway Tuesday morning. Around 1 p.m. Monday, the Custer County Sheriff’s Office received a call of a shooting at 173 Rocky Ridge Road, in a remote area eight miles northeast of Westcliffe, close to the Fremont County line. The first deputy arrived on the scene about 25 minutes later. “The shooting happened in a wooded area. We entered kind of at a high risk and checked to see if there’s any survivors,” said Custer County Sheriff Rich Smith. Before 9 pm. Monday, the Custer County Sheriff confirmed to 11 News three people were dead, including two men and a woman. A fourth person, a woman, was seriously injured and was airlifted to a Colorado Springs hospital. At the last update, that victim is expected to survive.
  9. One of my top 3 favorite guitarists, but I'm gonna let someone else take his guitars.
  10. You may have already gotten your auto-wah/envelope filter, @jimmyjazz, but I am pretty happy with this. Relatively inexpensive and does what it does while taking up minimal space on a board. I tried a DOD envelope filter first and didn't like it as it came with a lot of noise. This doesn't have that problem.
  11. Next time someone is in the market for a new piece of gear, try this… Find the make/model you want on reverb, watch all the listings. You’ll get offers from sellers at a 10-15% discount, aggressively negotiate them down as far as you can but screen shot every offer from them. When they finally say fuck you and break off negotiations, email the screen shot of your best offer to your Sweetwater rep and ask if they can beat the offer. They will match it and might beat it by up to 5%. Then buy it from Sweetwater for the best customer service and return policy available at the lowest possible price.
  12. The obvious solution is to adopt the mind set we had last night regarding officiating (don’t give a fuck), win the next two games, and leave this shit ass conference to drown in our wake.
  13. Clyde says, "Bitch, you better give me those gummies or imma have to go all silverback gorilla on your ass."
  14. Smells Like Teen Middle Aged Spirit Cool rehearsal space.
  15. That's why I left the plastic on that spells out wtf all that shit does
  16. The pbass found a home, outside of here. Re: an overabundance of knobs, I think the pbass was about right for a studio bass. With the two pickups and all the blending and boosting as well as cutting, you could get just about any tone you might imagine out of it. I imagine anything more would rapidly run into diminishing returns for the complexity. But live, I never touched the knobs, really. Just set it during a quick sound check and the promptly forgot they existed.
  17. Thanks, got one picked out, though.
  18. Anyone interested in a 2007 Fender American Deluxe PJ-Bass with active EQ? Its probably worth somewhere in the middle of Reverb's scale of $844 to $1478. I'll sell it for the $850 I paid 4 years ago for it plus cost to ship if anyone here wants it/can use it. Its a player/great bass, I just want to move to a short scale for ergonomic reasons. Its got some dings and dents, all cosmetic, nothing wrong functionally. Would come with its hard shell case. I can provide more pics via PM if anyone is interested.
  19. I dig both your songs, @Celery Man & @sidis. "Dirt Bike" is fucking cool, and your version of "Encontru Sus Hilo De Plata" with lyrics cracks me up, Sidis. Very cool. I've been in Austin and on a hectic schedule getting ready for the Texas troubadour thing tomorrow, so I hadn't had a chance to listen before now. When this is done and I'm back home, I'm gonna be getting back into writing/composing until the live music scene hits up again next May. I've got some pent up ideas to get out.
