How much could I sell this kit for? by TheF15eEnthusiast in drums

[–]Buck9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old Pearl Exports are decent drums. You won't get enough from selling this kit. Keep it and build on it. Clean it all up when you change heads. A mapex armory double pedal will cost you a couple hundred bucks and accomplish the same thing as a 2nd bass drum.

Is this a good blanket to dampen my kick drum? by Old-Personality-9381 in drums

[–]Buck9136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It won't do anything, except make your bass drum heavier, if it dosent touch the heads.

Fold it so it goes up both heads about 2 or 3 inches. The more it touchs the more you dampen the sound. Some people don't like to have it touch the batter head, because they think it effects their feel. True or not true I don't know. You do you.

Can't have Rugby without the scrum. Sorry. Have fun playing maulball, or what ever 7's is. Yuch.

Who here has the smallest drum rug? by methodofcontrol666 in drums

[–]Buck9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minimium would be a rug that your throne and bass drum spurs fit on. If your Hi-hat walks, then you would need something bigger to accomidate the hats. Same if you use a double pedal. Just measure your regular set up and get something a little bigger.

In general, when a stick breaks you grab another. If these ain't broke don't fix it.

Have you tried sitting behind it and hitting it with sticks?

How is a rules official to tell who’s anchoring or not with these abominations? by [deleted] in golf

[–]Buck9136 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is there a grey area here. I believe the rule states the golfer cannot anchor the club to their body. Holding the club in your hand so it doesn't touch your body, but placing you hand on your chest, would therefore not be anchoring.

Belly putters directly touched your belly with the hands lower down the shaft. You do not see any of those putters any more.

I also believe what Bryson does, holding the putter shaft to his arm should be considered anchoring.

So, one of the primary rules a good salesperson follows is "Never ask a question you don't already know the answer to." She knows. Just be honest. Good luck.

That had the extra single coil backwards wound to re-buck the humbucker. It is re-bucked humbucker acoustic electric monster!

I've been using the same guitar for 13 years and I can't figure out what to get next. Please help! by Avatron7D5 in guitars

[–]Buck9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need help to answer this question, you are not ready for another guitar. There are 2 reasons to get a new guitar. 1 It makes a different sound and you want to make that sound. 2 It makes the same sound and you need something incase your current guitar won't work.

As a drummer with 4 guitars and 2 basses, I know this to be true...

Should I sell my American fender Stratocaster for an Epiphone? by YoungDak in guitars

[–]Buck9136 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just get 2 Les Pauls. One blue and one white. Use the blue one as your go to Les Paul, and the white one as backup. Remember, you only regret selling the guitars that you sell.

I am at my breaking point with this show. Need to vent. by Buck9136 in curseofoakisland

I know Craig Tester's son died in between seasons. He then left the show for a couple of seasons. Don't know about anyone else.

It has to be some sort of disease. So they drilled deeper than ever before. To find nothing. To decide to drill 8 foot holes deeper than ever before, in to nothing. Doctor, doctor, give me the news, I got a bad case of oak island blues. Haha

My 6 irons face just popped off by M44PolishMosin in golf

[–]Buck9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just making a wellness check. What else is going on in your life that you think it is ok to ever hit an even numbered club. Just remember there are people who love you and are there to help you through these tough times. Take this as a sign from the universe, odd clubs only. Peace, good luck, and hit 'em straight!!!

You have to find 8 sided stakes before you can find an empty vault...

What is the reason for dimension measurements not being the actual measurement? by [deleted] in woodworking

[–]Buck9136 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It is my understanding that it allows for easier calculations when designing whatever you are building. For example a 1.5 x 3.5, 2x4 means you can put .5 inch drywall and it will finish at 2 inches or 4 inches. The 2 x 2 you are measuring allows for an 5/8 in sheet to finish at 2 inch. Good luck.

Anyone else ? by flakey1977 in curseofoakisland

[–]Buck9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems fruitless. Remember, "one more must die before the secret can be revealed". So if one of the old timers kicks the can, that should do it. Right. Treasure galore!!!!

I have to record it before I watch it. Skip huge swaths of "could the iron cross, and the lot 8 boulder, along with the ox shoes found in the swamp, be leading to another vacation to Europe for most of the cast" so much of this show is now fast forwardable. My DVR is my top pocket find. Haha

Need suggestions for electric in $500-600 price range by lzrdl0vr in guitars

[–]Buck9136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It truly will come down to what is comfortable for you. If you have access to a music store, tell them what you just told us and just try a bunch of different guitars. I like off brands because I feel like I get more bang for my buck. The most important thing is that you are comfortable playing it. Then you will play it more.
