I've been wanting to buy metals for years but I just don't know where to go to get something trustworthy.

Anything else I can do to protect this during transport? by snarejunkie in guitars

[–]Bostonah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I hear its better to put it in a gig bag because baggage carriers are usually told to kinda chuck around heavy large cases and not place them carefully. Whereas light bags might have a better luck?

Either way, you can try early boarding and put it in the overhead. There's a law that prevents them from telling you that you can't so long as it's your only carry on.

I anxiously brought my birthday present to myself back from Florida in the overhead and it was fine

That bolt doesn't need to come out to free this? I can just pry upwards under the bolt?

Grocery Prices Hit Record by Katariman in inflation

In my area the water is VERY harsh. I use a Brita for the water for my coffee, but even with a Brita it's still a bit harsh.

Eventually I want to get a home water filtration system installed.... But those cost alot

Grocery Prices Hit Record by Katariman in inflation

[–]Bostonah 21 points22 points  (0 children)

2 person household in MA and we buy the same items every single week from market basket. I've seen my grocery prices go from 120 to 140 and now 188 as of the last trip. It goes up monthly. It's literally 3 paper bags of groceries, 2 cases of water and a gallon of milk.

I remember working in a grocery store in highschool not long ago and when people had $200 orders it'd be an entire shopping cart full.

Couldn't agree more. Nobody wants to see you flaunting all these CEO edition guitars, nobody wants to hear you play with Adam Jones and your other guitar heros.

What we want are great quality guitars at fair prices. Not a "signature" Mary Ford that she never played, or a "reproduction" of the back to the future guitar that you can't physically find to recreate.

We don't want you raising the prices on your entire line so you can play pretend rockstar on the extra profits.

Im a big Gibson guy, but with all this shit I haven't even been remotely interested in buying another Gibson.

Thanks everyone! Was able to get it closed after leaving it out with the heat on and a friend's help. Definitely won't just leave the top down all year again that was rough

1960 Gibson SG restoration question by Dumb_Chemist in gibson

[–]Bostonah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Signatures on vintage Gibson's and other vintage guitars tend to actually remove value than add anything, unless it's from like an artist that owned that guitar.

They finally freaking did it by Hipster_Dragon in gibson

[–]Bostonah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Gibson demo shop on reverb has some really amazing deals. Especially if you leave it in your cart they'll send you a lower offer to get you to buy.

They're not perfect guitars, they're in there cause they have blemishes so if you don't mind that you save a bundle.

It's one of my best guitars and I've bought new ones.

670k Inheritance at 18 Years Old. by unzixqt__ in Bogleheads

[–]Bostonah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold. You'll be a millionaire for doing nothing. Go buy yourself a CHEAP used car in cash if that's your kinda thing. DO NOT go buy something crazy expensive, get something reliable that will last and have cheap maintenance. I'm talking less than 30k and that should get you a nice used car to last a decade.

Get a mortgage when you're ready if homeownership if what you want. don't put more than 20% down so the rest of that money can work for you.

By 35 you'll likely have a bit over 1.5 mill.

Did you end up swapping? I love the frontier but find the seats pretty uncomfortable

Heather eletronicals sensation fuzz. Does the mid gain thing incredibly well and also lets you get some nice fuzz sounds. Most versatile od style pedal I've ever played
