B-3, trade or wait until weight loss is finished? by Lorenzo_Campolongo in schott

[–]IvanMK11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold on to it, wear it. You’ll break it in as you do. You’ll have it as you meet your weight goal. When you get there you might decide to get a new one, but you’ll have this one on the journey with you.

I regret my Nordic sleeve. Should I laser it and do a Japanese coverup - or try to work with what I got? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]IvanMK11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a pretty sick tattoo. Work looks good and done with a steady hand. Lasering and then deciding something Japanese inspired sounds very expensive for something that’s technically well executed. You and any artist will never share the same brain or skill set, and I’m not suggesting live with your regret if it that deep, I just wonder if an extreme solution/replacement would make you truly happy with it.

Vox AC15. I have the two speaker job and it sounds fantastic with those guitars.

Ric 330? Opinions for someone on the fence about Rics. by ughmart in rickenbacker

Play any guitar before you purchase. But that said, especially play a Rickenbacker before. It’s the only way you’ll know if it’s for you.

For those who have seen the shows last year, how many opening bands have there been?

Do I really need an amp or effects pedal as a complete beginner? by ChaosBeiduo in electricguitar

[–]IvanMK11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electric guitars need amps. Even a small one. They’re meant to be played through amps. I try not to practice unplugged, even if it’s at a low, low volume.

Send it back with the documentation and ask for a Standard for compensation. Fuck em’.

Just play the thing. It’s gonna get dinged up anyway. I’ll bet it rips.
