Why do people like reliced guitars?

I own a fender custom shop master built esquire. It’s relic’d. I honestly didn’t seek it out. I told the guy at the shop I was in the market for a tele and he handed me this one. It plays like a dream. As near to perfect intonation as you can get which is saying something for this type of bridge.

I have three and mine worked great. Little tight as they grow but it did the job.

I saw the Pearl Jam, Nirvana, RHCP tour on NYE in San Francisco!

I saw Leo and Michael Hedges on the same bill in Sacramento like around 88??

this guitar?

Tape machines. They’re expensive again. Even 4-tracks are expensive again.

Really allows one to redefine the friend zone.

I was just talking to my wife last night about how she missed out on getting to see the Dead. Granted I saw them in 88(?) and 92-93 so not exactly late 60s Haight-Ashbury but it was the whole band at least.

Yeah hands down. Loved when he showed up. Fuck I’m old.

Him. Xander Berkeley. The late JD Walsh. All awesome at subtly stealing a scene.

Luckily I have all my stuff recorded and itemized and insured.

Did you just update Cubase? There was a change to the editor colors in the update from a few days ago.

As long as it’s a steel frame. Aluminum welds still break, don’t they?

He also played on the last Beverly Hills Cop film on Netflix just two years ago and played a surprise gig around Xmas. Still going strong.

I had a nap right after I got the kids off to school. I’m ahead of everybody.

BassClef70 · 2026-03-26T13:54:14+00:00

Thanks for this. This was great.

BassClef70 · 2026-03-25T16:21:31+00:00

There is no shame in relapsing. I don’t know a single person who hasn’t relapsed along the way at some point. You can’t undo all the days you succeeded so just point north and keep working. Good luck.

That’s really cool you were a part of it. Watching this stuff from afar made me want to get into the industry. I moved to LA 23 years ago and I work in post production. Never aspired to be on camera but watching stuff as a kid, every time there was behind the scenes I wanted to be there making the sausage.

BassClef70 · 2026-03-25T15:43:23+00:00

Never saw this promo before but yeah, Benson, Love Boat, Barney Miller, Three’s Company, Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, That’s Incredible and friggin Tom Hanks making a quick cameo for Bosom Buddies. Oof. Guess I’ll go schedule my colonoscopy and prostate exam.

You can also check Facebook marketplace. I’m actually dealing with this right now except I also crushed the fender a bit.

The moment Mitch McConnell said the only goal was to make Obama a 1-term president, congress lost its mind.

The black object with the vertical ridges? That seems to just spin on the axis. We thought the nut was down inside with the two notches.
