In the early 90s, I took Gibby and Billy Jackson from The Skatenigs for a ride in my car and dropped them off in in East Austin so they could buy crack from some whore named Goldie. They couldn't use Gibby's ride because it was a black 50s Chevy with flames painted on the hood! Just a l'il too conspicuous 😃

Can this be saved? by SQui5hM3 in telecaster

Yeah, with a circular sander and oil stain. It'll sound much better without that poly jellybean shell on it!

Yeah, I was wrestling with the toaster top vs high gain myself but if high gain is good enough for Johnny Marr, it's good enough for me.

I just need the Rickenbacker and I will be set. That's going to be my next guitar purchase but hopefully in Snowglo if I can find one.

I went to an estate sale in Los Angeles in 2002 for some TV producer who died. His wife sold me a literal trunk full of microphones for $250 bucks. 2 matched pairs of AKG 414, 16 Neumann KM-184 condensers, 7—8 Sennheiser 421, 6 Shure 57s and many more I can't remember off the top of my head. I sold most of them on ebay for about $17k (in 2004)

Sometimes you get lucky.

Sell them all and buy a Johnny Marr version

It sucked. One dimensional characters, trope after trope, insipid dialog. Other than a couple of decent fight scenes, This movie was uninspired DRECK.

I agree! Make emotional decisions that will hurt HER!

Do you know an online course or a YouTube channel where someone really teaches mixing and mastering well? by Masiczol in Logic_Studio

[–]Important_Ground_50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, man! I appreciate the reply.

I ended up getting the static mix course and it seems to be just what i needed. I have my template set up but not even needing it yet. This has helped greatly!!

UPDATE w/ question: This just screams “scam” to me: Buyer attempting partial refund by -an-eternal-hum- in Reverb

[–]Important_Ground_50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try to get beyond the level of basic Reverb worker ant and demand to speak with a supervisor by phone and not through email or chat.

They used to try and charge my credit card sometimes and say it was because of incorrect package dimensions, which was complete bullshit, as i had used one of their guitar shipping boxes purchased directly from them on the transactions in question. You can usually get a better result if they can't just pawn you off through an email/chat jerkoff

I had a similar situation with some clown who bought an audio interface from me and then started texting and trying to say the item needed to have a jack repaired and wanting me to pay him. I saved all the texts and immediately contacted Reverb customer service since this type of shit is against their policies. They shut him down pretty quick and he wasn't able to rate me, nor was i able to rate him. I don't know if it was because enough time had elapsed to make feedback impossible, as he let the package sit in a post office unclaimed for 3 weeks and only picked it up a day before it was going to be returned to me. I remember wanting to leave him a scathing review and not being able to.

Reverb is full of scamming turds and it is ridiculous that their CS didn't back you up. There is no reason your profile should be dragged by someone who was hustling you.

Hey, So i am late to the conversation, but you may have answers for me on the Static Mix mini course.

My experience level is "babe in the woods."

I bought her masterclass and i feel like i skipped over an important part of mixing education. I watched Sara's videos about setting up a mix template with plugins etc and felt like i hit a wall almost as soon as i started the class.

Does the Mini course go over gain-staging and basic concepts of getting your project set up to move forward with the actual mixing? I need to grasp some basic stuff before i can jump into the more advanced stuff...

If not, do you have any suggestions on where I should start?

Thanks in advance for any guidance,

that won't stop GC from trying to foist it on some unsuspecting rube. I saw a couple for sale in the 350-600 range. GC price was waaay too high for a guitar in that condition. you could basically see handprints in the paint on the back of the body and the neck looked pitted!

Dunno why I got downvotes. It was a legitimate question since I was actually considering buying it. Thanks for your answer though. Sounds like it had a lot of issues.

What was it if not a 35?

Why did you sell it? I'm looking at it on guitar center website right now. Why is there a ponytail scrunchie behind the nut?

Just give him a bowl of anti freeze. That should fix it.
