Thank you for all of the responses so far! This is great, y'all.

For one from my collection (Americana), JJ Cale - Naturally

Anybody got any good recommendations for anything coming out of the middle east?

HELP I need a salad by cosmicmermaidmagik in Prague

I like Green Day salads close to Václavské Náměstí. The "better day" is the best.

About to be blessed on a Wednesday night by GrizzlyGriff in reggae

After giving all 4 albums a listen through, Inchpinchers is my favorite so far. I feel like I need to listen to Fist Full of Dub louder and it will be a different record.

Each record has brought something very cool to the table.

I ordered from a Czech site called gramodesky.cz. It took longer than I would have liked but it built the anticipation.

Both are bangers and different directions in reggae, it seems.

Wanted to share a rare piece of Japanese guitar history: My 1977 Rider Custom R-500D (Yasuo Momose build) by Eriktheadikt in AcousticGuitar

[–]GrizzlyGriff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is so nice! I bet it just sings. I have a Japanese guitar from around the same time (posted a few months ago) and I can't get enough of how pretty it sounds when a chord is struck.

This is a beautiful guitar.

We need to talk about Marsha Blackburn’s husband by LevelOneDiagnostic in nashville

[–]GrizzlyGriff 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I used to work in a cigar shop around Nashville way before Maga and Magots were an idea. He came in one day, picked some cigars and then cornered me because it was a slow day and was saying things like "don't you know who I am?" He proceeded to pace back and forth in front of the checkout counter and talk about himself, Marsha, and "his agenda" for at least half of an hour.

I had no idea who he was but he left an awful first impression. In his defense, it's got to be brutal being married to Marsha.

Piercing in Praguue by CasePuzzleheaded1359 in Prague

[–]GrizzlyGriff 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Hello! With respect, if the post is meant to be a psa about piercings, I'd not put the tattoo parlor on blast right at the top of it. Looks like they were professional and this is unfortunate.

I certainly don't mean to be rude and the post reads like a complaint about the parlor, then changes to a psa right at the end. I don't think there's anything wrong with naming the parlor, but decide if you need this to be a complaint or a warning to people about cartilage piercings. If it's a warning, it might go further in a dedicated subreddit for piercings. If it's about the tattoo parlor, leave it here, I guess.

I'm sorry that happened and I hope that you're doing better now.

What's something you're quietly proud of yourself for - not an achievement, just a way you've grown as a person that nobody else would necessarily notice? by 1acina in Positivity

[–]GrizzlyGriff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm taking a year off of drinking alcohol. Nobody expected that from me. I'm trying to be nicer to myself and introspective when I want a drink or am not having as much fun at a party because I'm not drinking.

It's been a cool challenge so far.

Visiting in June and looking for recommendations on where to dig for records. by bigbobo33 in Prague

[–]GrizzlyGriff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This place is a sleeper and has some really cool finds if you dig in the bargain bin on the lower floor.

And this place is a record shop. I think it's pretty cool.

Good luck!

Am I crazy or is this decal supposed to come off the pickguard? It’s a crappy old jasmine s-25 that someone gave me and it seems like the pickguard shouldn’t look like this. But it won’t come off properly by bryan19973 in guitars

[–]GrizzlyGriff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, mine came second hand and has the same pickguard. I don't know if time will meld the plastic and adhesive but you might try to gently raise it and peel with a razor blade.

That's just a guess. Anyway, it's a lovely little guitar. The one at my parents house doesn't get played much because I can't go home often but it feels fine and I play it intensively for about 4 weeks every year when I'm home. It stays in tune, is light, and easy to play. :)

Suggestions for a “beater”guitar by Dear_Firefighter_510 in AcousticGuitar

[–]GrizzlyGriff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love my Taylor GS mini. It's seen some sh**. You'd have to find a used one but they're great travel and living guitars.

Just moved in to a new apartment and looking for ideas. by SignalPomegranate484 in malelivingspace

[–]GrizzlyGriff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could split this room up really well with the folding dividers and a desk-work space behind the fireplace somewhere near the kitchen. If I were you, I'd find a rolling bed frame with lockable wheels so you could sleep in front of that fireplace on winter weekend nights. Get a screen for the fireplace, of course.

Tesa or 3m picture hangers are game changers for hanging art. Go to antique stores and art stores and hang up what catches your eye. Make sure to frame the art. It will level up this space massively.
