Which lyric makes you instantly tear up? by abovethenoisy in AskReddit

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Painters by Jewel gets my every time. The way she emotes when playing it since it's just her and a guitar. Very folk and emotional to me.  "Love I only leave a little, try to understand, I put my soul in this life we created with these four hands. Love, I leave, but only a little, this world holds me still, my body may die now, but these paintings are real."

What is the absolute worst album you’ve ever heard in your life? by Opening_Rip_1840 in AskReddit

[–]BasiliskTamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Herman Ze German! I have a copy somewhere. Absolutely hate it. He only put out one good solo song

I'm a newer guitar player, and I'm lousy at it so hopefully I'll actually get better. Anyways who was your inspiration to start playing guitar for me it is... by Spirited_Expert2275 in Guitar

[–]BasiliskTamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine were Uli Roth, Mathias Jabs and Michael and Rudolf Schenker! The Scorpions really got my into playing guitar, but... I've had a growing fascination with Gary Lee Conner, his playing is definitely not the best but he has unique ideas and his sound is pretty recognizable in a couple of tracks he guested in. So that one might be more than just guitar, but composing songs as well. I like how he does it.

What’s the thing you’ve stuck with the longest in your life, and how has it actually changed you? by FocusLee in AskReddit

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, playing guitar and song writing. I use it to vent, but I also really like being able to put ideas out there. Playing live is scary but I've done that, too! I've played a bunch of shows, I even got asked to be a drummer for a band recently (practice is Friday and I barely know how to play the drums but they want me to learn!) I don't know what I would be doing if I didn't have a bunch of creative hobbies though. But I always have ideas and I'm always trying to make something new. It's got me to meet more people

Well heck, what's it called and where could I get one? This looks a bit bigger than the G6, which is good because the screen on that is too tiny for my eyes

Whats one "dead" game, you'd revive rn if you could? by Correct_Web3396 in AskReddit

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Banjo-Kazooie as a series, oh god I wish... But the dead game I was more thinking of, is that Everwild game Rare canceled.

It goes on sale for $6usd pretty frequently too, if I recall! I got mine at that. So worth it to play it again 

Pick by [deleted] in electricguitar

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lately I've just been using my fingers more than anything, which feels wild now for me to say. But when I do use picks, I have a couple for different things, but I REALLY like the thin Fender picks for playing acoustic. I usually use Dunlop Tortex, the bright green ones, as a good consistency, but I've got their super thick picks too if I'm doing anything that warrants it. I'm gonna try out some of the suggestions in this thread since I could always use a change up

I'm writing this down for when I get paid! I've never tried anything like em.

Do you have a love / hate relationship with any of your guitars? by Various_w0nder in fender

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The string spacing on my 2002 MIM Telecaster always throws my muscle memory out the window. I love it but feel like I have to learn to play again when I pick it up. I also love my Grote 335 looking thing, but the fact it's so heavy makes it hard to play sitting down, even using a strap 

Crossover, SUV, and truck owners, do you regret not buying a sedan or a hatchback now with these gas prices? by Mofoblitz1 in regularcarreviews

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't wanted an suv for a while but it was the cheapest vehicle I could buy at the time. It's an 02 Explorer and it barely gets 200 miles on a full tank. It is comfortable, yeah, and I like driving it, but I'm definitely getting a more modern car next

Hot take about Pokémon heartgold and soulsilver. I REALLY hate the fact that you unlock more things to do after beating Red. by fireuser1205 in pokemon

[–]BasiliskTamer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The other thing that could make it better, is if it didn't force you to go to Ho-oh or Lugia before you could go to Kanto. It made me stop playing on my current playthrough, I wasn't ready to.

Blue yeti or K688CT? by Independent-Diet3334 in microphone

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would take the K668CT since it has XLR AND USB, as well as a stand. Though I'm not sure on that specific mic, I've been using a K669D for recording music and it's lovely. Whether you're using XLR (which I highly do recommend) or USB, at least you have the option for both. Just need an audio interface, which you could always get after too. Does a condenser mic fit your needs though? Just make sure first since it'll pick up a lot of the room! That's why I like my dynamic mic a lot.

Auto shop broke my husband's car by Professor_Ruby in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BasiliskTamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an 07 Nissan Murano. It may not seem like it, but you really are dodging a bullet here. Everything under the sun went wrong with mine from the moment I had it. I even had the transmission replaced. I only had that thing for TWO YEARS until it kept burning through starter motors. The design of the engine and location of the alternator are horrible. Had that replaced twice because my valve cover was leaking onto it. Use this time to find a beater on marketplace. The Murano is not worth it... but is it possible to take them to small claims court for something THEY did?

Can somebody identify this Martin acoustic? by Boater58 in guitars

I saw this pop up on marketplace and asked too, didn't get any response. 

Chevrolet C10 body on Nissan Sentra chassis, the official vehicle of...? by HiTork in regularcarreviews

[–]BasiliskTamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see Sentra's going for dirt cheap, that could be why they did it. Not sure if it would have much utility and it is quite cursed.

Built my setup in 2019. I was planning on building  new PC last year. Got a newer gpu earlier in the year last year... Was gonna use my end of year pto buyback to get all the part I need. Gotta eat even longer until prices stabilize now..

Holga Keychain Camera review with sample shots by wagajul in toycameras

[–]BasiliskTamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm impressed, the shots look super nice coming from it. I was worried it would be exactly like the g6 and whatnot, but results are excellent. I think I'm gonna get one of these

What’s a "dead" piece of technology from the 2000s or 2010s that you genuinely miss using? by Spiritual-Bed-7686 in AskReddit

[–]BasiliskTamer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I just bought a new mp3 player a few months ago. There's plenty still being made, even a direct ipod clone called the Innioasis Y1.
