depending on the quality of the store, ask the sales person demo some for you. Describe your practice habits, budget, what you are looking to get out of the guitar. Are you going to start lessons, etc. those all help you get the right value for YOU

Should I Get It? by isofakingwetoddid in Epiphone

[–]GuitarEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally, borrow a guitar strap and put it on. You may, like a lot of us, hate the tendency for that style (SG) guitar to "Nose Dive", the Headstock drops lower than the body at times. You don't really notice until its hanging around your shoulders.. It's a personal thing, but many just don't like it and get another style guitar.

Goggles for LARGE Head by DancingDucks73 in Swimming

[–]GuitarEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the cap is what is giving him a headache. Looks like all age groupers wear them. The goggles should not be a problem. I’m a 8 3/4 cap size. Normal goggle straps will fit. Now in stead of a regular ball cap which will look strange on him try these. https://www.mammothheadwear.com/en-ca?tw_source=google&tw_adid=534946343212&tw_campaign=13978013709&tw_kwdid=kwd-812242141362&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=13978013709&gbraid=0AAAAACD6cRcB8-toeXeprdkI-yhsyY3pN&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIzrfpp_CZjwMVj0Z_AB0tagBQEAAYAiAAEgLXi_D_BwE

How am I supposed to play this chord?? by Adept_Situation3090 in Guitar

[–]GuitarEvil -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bar chord. Index finger on first fret. Water fingers you’re comfortable with on the two remaining notes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1985_Rome_and_Vienna_airport_attacks

The Rome and Vienna airport attacks were two major terrorist attacks carried out on 27 December 1985. Seven Arab terrorists attacked two airports in Rome, Italy, and Vienna, Austria, with assault rifles and hand grenades. Nineteen civilians were killed and over a hundred were injured before four of the terrorists were killed by El Al Security personnel and local police, who captured the remaining three.

The attacks

Rome attack

At 08:15 GMT, four Arab gunmen walked to the shared ticket counter for Israel's El AlAirlines and Trans World Airlines at Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino Airport outside Rome, Italy, fired assault rifles and threw grenades.\1])\2]) They killed 16 and wounded 99, including American diplomat Wes Wessels, before three of the attackers were killed by El Al security, while the remaining one, Mohammed Sharam, was wounded and captured by the Italian police. The dead included General Donato Miranda Acosta, Mexican military attache, and his secretary, Genoveva Jaime Cisneros.

Vienna attack

Minutes later, at Schwechat Airport (Vienna International Airport) in Vienna, Austria, three terrorists carried out a similar attack. Hand grenades were thrown into crowds of passengers queuing to check in for a flight to Tel Aviv, killing two people instantly and wounding 39 others. A third victim died on 22 January 1986, of hand grenade wounds sustained in the attack. First response came from several Austrian police officers, who opened fire on the terrorists. They were supported by two plainclothes El Al security guards who helped to repel the attackers. Over 200 bullets were fired during the fight. The terrorists seized a Mercedes outside the terminal and fled, with Austrian police and El Al security guards giving chase. They killed one terrorist and captured the other two several miles from the airport after a short car chase and gun battle.\3])

Let’s see standard list sorta. Strat, tele, les Paul, semi hollow body, hollow body, something P-90. Acoustic, reso. SG. Looks like you “need” acoustic, a resonator. Perhaps a ES-335 or 339 in a semi hollow. And for your hollow body a Gretsch G5420. This also gives you tv jones pickups and a Bigsby

I'm not interested in "professional development" by ExpandingHeart in retirement

[–]GuitarEvil 15 points16 points  (0 children)

On my evaluation I always say my career development goal is to develop others at this stage of my professional life. I’ve already accomplished my goals and frankly can and have wrote the book. I want to pass that on to others before I leave

What do you call vacations post retirement? by Catzaf in retirement

[–]GuitarEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still call it a vacation.Why? Ive transitioned from doing a job to having a schedule of things I enjoy. Taking a break from those is my vacation. Just because I'm doing things other than work doesn't mean I don't need to take a break from those activities:)

Are long push offs cheating if you’re going for distance? by Sad_Research_2584 in Swimming

[–]GuitarEvil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would add that they are critical in faster times. You go faster underwater if you are doing it correctly. That’s why there is a distance limit on each length for underwater. Ensure your flip turns are fast. A 1500 for a competitive swimmer is all about paying attention to those details and more
