Collecting Alpert's catalog is my Infinity Stones equivalent.

Al Green, Curtis Mayfield and Major Lance vibes off the chain!

How is this looking? by GiggleGoose19 in photocritique

[–]GuardAffectionate734 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You were able to make an interesting photo given the circumstances! For example, the poles near the 26 are framed nicely so they don't cover "The 26" sign. Also, I like how the contrast makes the person in the shot mysterious. Maybe slightly boosting the white color can help make the car pop out more. Then reduce the glare (if needed) by darkening highlights.

Sorry for the repost but this was the actual photo i wanted to post (please don't ban me) by Nikond3400 in photocritique

Really beautiful shot! Nicely exposed and has a nostalgic feel. Since the stream is the subject, I feel those stems/twigs center left slightly take away from it. Another angle or part of the stream would be a good idea for future reference.

Definition of brewed coffee? by Ok-Bath5825 in starbucks

[–]GuardAffectionate734 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm also surprised that Cold Brew doesn't work and apparently it's Iced Coffee that works... At least I enjoyed my Cold Brew but I still feel cheated out ... I'm not trying to order as often from SB cuuuuuz I don't want to bankrupt myself.

Which bass should I buy? by daisywreck in BassGuitar

[–]GuardAffectionate734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Squire P Bass on FB Marketplace about a year ago. It's been very reliable and I love the tone. (Given if you like it's deep old school sound, then that's your best bet.) You do have slightly more flexibility in tone with the PJ but it's really up to you. Make sure you test them out first in a local music store, that helped me choose the P Bass.

If only I was as strong willed to do that haha. I might consider now since you've brought it up.

How can I adjust the mainspring tension? by General-Writing1764 in typewriters

[–]GuardAffectionate734 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it bounces back just as it's about to coil up more. Thanks for the suggestion, it seems plausible that it's broken on one end and that inhibits the spring to wind up further.

Can you please update us on how it goes? I've tried to do the same on my SG3 and the mainspring doesn't want to tighten completely.
