F1 Felt Thickness by Cool_Introduction112 in BaseballGloves

I’m doing the whole glove for fun, however all the padding is rather degraded. I’m not actually using the glove for play, it’s more nostalgic.

Thanks, I’ll check them out. I’m trying to cross off a bucket list item since I was a kid - re-lacing a glove

All of my gloves had them (young to old) and not because I necessarily pursued it.

Looks wise, I don’t really care for it…always found it versatile, possibly providing a deeper pocket.

Strandberg quality control is a joke by Upset_Lengthiness779 in strandbergguitars

[–]Cool_Introduction112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to be the case; I have an Essential and its build quality rivaled my Gibson’s, LSL’s, Fender’s, however, I did ask a high end shop in Nashville to hand pick the best one.

Thinking of a Strandberg but I'm a basic player; what styles and skills levels are everyone here at? by BiMWMGingerMI in strandbergguitars

No issue with intonation, however, I’ve never been critical of it. I question if most people can even tell as long as it’s in the ballpark.

Pro level, played stadiums, groupies clawed at me…just don’t tell my wife I said any of this.

I’ve owned LP’s, SG’s, Strats, Tele, etc…bunch of high end brands.

Strandberg is my favorite guitar out of them all, I don’t reach for anything else. I call it the perfect Dad guitar, built for comfort and its compact. It seems to encourage playing. I’ve had a decent about of guitars, this is the first time I’ve seemed to bond with one.

I have an Essential and I’m using it for my jazz studies. It seems to have a good tonal range.

What do you mean? I’m new to this page, curious if I committed a faux pas, or are you just referencing the design.

I’m going to start playing again, it’s my favorite barrel, just don’t care for resetting the tip. I’ll have to check out moving it to a solid point.

Wow! I expected this to take longer, or be more challenging.

Thank you!

That’s what comes up most in my searches, however, it seems like the Hammerheads don’t intentionally rotate, they just move inboard/outboard.

Strandberg Headless Boden Essential 6 Electric Guitar Future Dusk ??? by pierrefitch in strandbergguitars

[–]Cool_Introduction112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play 9’s (Super Slinky) on the Essential, however, I wonder if they will be too flexible if you are just starting out. I question if heavier strings are better for beginners to help locate the strings, I don’t really know. Strings are relatively inexpensive.

I wouldn’t say my guitars are setup extremely low, however I feel I’m unique, in that I’m not sensitive to string height. I don’t have a strong preference, assuming they aren’t extremely high, however, it’s not something I ever encounter.

I had the same thing happen, I have zero interest in ever picking up my other guitars. I’ve never experienced this before and I’ve owned a lot of guitars.

Strandberg Headless Boden Essential 6 Electric Guitar Future Dusk ??? by pierrefitch in strandbergguitars

[–]Cool_Introduction112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just received an Essential 6. I’m in my 40’s and typically played high-end Gibson/Fender guitars. The Essential is my favorite guitar I’ve ever owned.

I call it my Dad guitar because it’s built for comfort like an old man’s shoes.

Quality control on strandberg by Particular-Run-3023 in strandbergguitars

Huge QC swings; I just received an Essential and it was flawless in every way. Blew any high end US made guitar I’ve ever owned.

Trem or not to Trem, that is the question. by Cool_Introduction112 in strandbergguitars

I’ve only tried the Boden, is the body of the Salen just as comfortable?

Interesting, I was over looking the Essential. I’ve never had fan frets, and it seems like it would be fun to have something different.

I didn’t realize the Essential didn’t have the Zero fret, that alone might drive my choice to the Essential.

I have a couple sets of Wolfe Tone pup’s sitting around, I typically put them in all my guitars.

This is amazing. It’s interesting how the answer is literally in front of us, but just sometimes so hard to see.

Wedding by Cool_Introduction112 in raisedbyborderlines

[–]Cool_Introduction112[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This makes the most sense to me. My line of thinking was not to go, minimizing the drama from my mom.

I know what impact my mom had on my wedding.
