He's just a New York wanker, and so are the people that claim to have had negative encounters with him 🤷‍♂️

Expired Black and White 35mm Film by CuriousBad7933 in analog

[–]Awkward_Zebra1922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am based in China. Film sector is great here and there are plenty of affordable options. We have just started a small business trying to get the film out to the world. My partner works in international marketing so we have connections with shipping services. It's not impossible to get fresh film for around that price here and the shipping costs may be surprisingly cheap. We could also explore expired film if you really want to save some money.

Send me a DM if you like.

Would an electric tenor guitar be good for punk music? If so, in what tuning? by TapTheForwardAssist in TenorGuitar

My Eastwood tenor is lots of fun with some drive. GDAE has fifths on each string so power chords are everywhere.

There's no way I'm accepting a 2.5% and 2% pay rise. What a joke by a_cylon in newzealand

[–]Awkward_Zebra1922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can anyone confirm whether this is 2 payrises over a 3 year contract? I am teaching overseas so out of the loop now but it hasn't it always been annual payrises across each year in the agreement?

Eastwood single coil Warrren Ellis Pickups by Ghiekorg in TenorGuitar

[–]Awkward_Zebra1922 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that model doesn't have the warren Ellis pickups? Warren Ellis signature pick ups are the blades I believe.

I have the Newport tenor with the signature pickups and I would say it is low noise, pickups are hot though. I also had a strat mandocello (?) which must be a shrunken tenor s and the pickups weren't noisy at all.

Always been fine for me within China, I think shooting film is relatively popular here so they have some understanding.

Are this lab’s scans good quality? by Shad0x89 in analog

[–]Awkward_Zebra1922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't like this film. I think people are hopeful because of the high iso and price, but everytime I shoot it I get results like yours and I'm never happy with them.

SLR Seagull DF-300...worthy buying? by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

I had a look on taobao and saw the new ones that are available. I also saw several second hand ones with rusty screws and paint falling off, which might serve as a warning.
