The Surly Beginner Guitar Thread
It really is, but you aren't going to be persuaded otherwise, so carry on. What I'm saying is that is how it will develop whether you like it or not. You obviously can and should practice it, but it's a subconscious skill your body starts doing.

I think this is where the disconnect is. It's absolutely critical on clean playing, more than anything. You will hear every little issue from sting noise to the different velocity on each string. Play an arpeggio with a clean tone and see if all the notes are the same volume. I would almost guarantee they aren't. As far as palm muting goes I've found, and lots of really really good players have noted over the years, it's a very instinctual thing , you will gravitate towards doing it almost subconsciously. Your palm on the bass strings, your fingertips on the little ones will start to fall in place. What Ed is talking about though is his philosophy with his rig though, which is a totally separate subject. Being a guy who straight piped his guitars into 100 watt Marshalls for ages, I agree with his take in general. His wasn't nearly as out of control as Billy Gibbons in the Eliminator era. It was so uncontrollable the had to record one phrase at a time.

Jonas mentioned that he did one of his best ever one minute powers, I get the sense thay have purposely worked on that so Pog can't get a gap. I think they are just keeping him for the high mountains.

What a hairy finish to that stage. MvDP just didn't have enough in the tank. Definitely curious to see how Pog goes next week, he didn't look so dominant today.

Pog looked a tick dull for the first time in years.

It's subscription based, but I think very highly of Sirius XM weather if you have the screen for it in your vehicle. You get radar and the whole nine. General satellite based service is good if you are really out there. The fail safe is always single side band though, a transmitter, not just receiver. That way you always can call someone in a pinch.

What is your application? It depends on a few factors like ability to generate power, fixed or portable installation etc...

So, firstly I'm gutted by this tragedy. But speaking as a lifetime mariner who has depended on NWS broadcasts for literal decades, I would say there are better options these days. I would certainly not tell anyone don't have a NOAA radio, I have multiple ones every time we leave the dock, but look at all the options.

The '65 I just bought is an amazing guitar for what I paid for it, I recommend just doing it

Is there a thread to talk about how much Bon Jovi sucks?
Yeah, I unironically really like a lot of Cinderella tunes. Tom Kiefer is a pretty talented dude. They also showed more of their blues rock roots on the later releases. The More Things Change is a great song.
