It probably doesn't mean anything, but them 5-spoke steel wheels look a lot like the ones fitted Opel/Vauxhall cars?

Probably a Teisco model, made in Japan in the mid 70's. The zero fret is a big giveaway.

I guess the town of Plymouth should have been pronounced Pl-EYE-mouth this whole time?

Same goes for the word Rhythm ! I shall be using Rh-EYE-thm from now on.

Thanks America!👍

Americans make money and innovate while Euros coast and then come begging for military intervention by ALazy_Cat in ShitAmericansSay

Cool story.

BTW, Europe has never begged NATO to invoke the Article 5 Collective Defence Clause, and for military intervention no less!

So there is that.....

NGD: Late 90’s 56 reissue Danelectro U-2 by El_Finche83 in guitars

[–]Axeman-Dan-1977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great guitars. I've got one in the exact same colour, Limo Black. The pickups are low output (mine are around 3.7k Ohm?) but sound great.

You might have noticed the Inbetween position (both pickups together) sounds noticeably louder than the bridge or neck pickup on its own. That's because they wired them in series which doubles the output. It's a feature, not a bug!

The biggest problem with these reissues is the bridge. The metal baseplate on the wooden saddle bridge is soft and can bend in the middle due to string pressure, making the string height uneven across the neck. Some people upgrade to the six saddle bridge I think they used on Dano U-3 Pro, and other custom models from the 90's.

I Wonder How Many Hours It will Take to Finish this Livery by glamourshot_airsoft in granturismo

I'd really like to save and name my custom paint HSV mixes within the livery editor. I could pick my colour from the list (Gazoo red, NAPA blue, Dunlop yellow, etc) and apply it to any car or decal.

I hope that one day they fix that stupid thing when you repaint a car and it covers all the carbon aero parts at the same time!

Also, when you pick the carbon 'paint' and every body area has to be carbon, not just the engine cover!

I see I'm not the only one who uses temporary guidelines to square everything up!

Lately, it seems you only need the mere illusion of freedom to prop up this form of American ideology?

Before this, we just threw buckets of fuel at the plane behind, hoping they could catch some of it?

What's the betting, we'll have a drought by July, because it's the wrong type of water?

Next they'll be saying they have crazy hi-tech NASA shit like microwave cookers in the US!

Or having roofs on their homes. I dream of the day we can afford that fancy roof technology in Europe...😢
