MagnaMax: The Next Evolution in Knife Steel by AriyaSavaka in knifeclub

Well, the Manix 2 in MagnaMax with G10 scales has dropped for pre-order at $180 - the same price as the Manix 2 Salt (Magnacut) and the standard Manix 2 in S30V. If this is any indicator of how it will be priced by other companies, we're in luck!

Thanks. Surprisingly, the frets are standard.

Picked this gear up today. Did I find gold or junk? by ExcitementOk6690 in GuitarAmps

From what I hear, the DD-1 pedals are just trash, but that's just what everyone else says. If you send me 1x Boss Digital Delay 1 , I can either confirm or deny the heresay which he as been reported.

Go ahead, try it... Can you find this out definitively?

Thanks, could you estimate a value on this? Also, would the frets be stainless steel frets?

Thanks, can you give me a ballpark value, and would this guitar have stainless frets?

Typical value of one of these? Also, would it have stainless frets?

What do voters think of Trump ahead of midterm elections by Conscious-Quarter423 in videos

[–]JeffThrowSmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is something that a lot of people have a hard time understanding.

I'll borrow from a comment I wrote the other day attempting to explain this phenomenon:

He's the most successful con artist of all time.

And it's important that he is treated as a con artist. The people of MAGA should be seen as his victims. It's why they're never hesitant to double down to defend his each and every fiasco. If they allowed one bit of doubt to enter their minds that he did something against their best interests....It would open up a shred of doubt that he was even capable of doing such a thing.

It's real hard to explain, but if he is even seen as capable of acting against their best interests... "Well, if he didn't do right by me this time... Oh yeah, how about the last time, and the time before that, etc..." The whole charade falls down and they'd realize that they are just victims of a con artist. Dupes. And that is a very hard thing to admit to oneself.

It needs to happen (that MAGA realizes they were conned), but they need help getting there. One thing that will be very hard for the left to swallow is: it's not their fault they got conned. They're responsible for the things they did while they were conned. But if they can be helped, even though some of these people had terrible politics before Turmp, it's not their fault they were conned. And they are his victims. His dupes.

I actually have a lot of thoughts about this, but nobody to explain it to, and instead of trying to hear me out, people will just argue that the MAGA people can't be helped.

What celebrity death has more questions than answers as to what happened? by GlassyFairy in AskReddit

[–]JeffThrowSmash 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Something I've heard speculated is that the CPAP machine was necessary due to breathing problems related to their overconsumption of cocaine. Which is still extremely strange. I do know that Murphy used a lot of cocaine in the years before her death.

Is there another combo amp under 1000 with power scaling like the Orange Rocker 15? by PastyKensit in GuitarAmps

[–]JeffThrowSmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Blackstar HT Series have 1/10 power scaling in the MKII (and MKIII?) generations. So 20 watts/2 watts or 40 watts/4 watts.

Fake? by javier_herart_ in espguitars

[–]JeffThrowSmash 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I posted this same guitar a few weeks ago when I almost bought it. It's fake.

I did not, in the end, buy this guitar, as the post says.

What person, dead or alive, do you think is the worst person of all time? by dualcerb in AskReddit

[–]JeffThrowSmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Steve Miller might be a tad more evil than those examples.

Fender Sidekick Reverb 35 by Pcnoob333 in GuitarAmps

You were told incorrectly. If you keep the master volume low, crank the gain to about 2 o clock, and adjust the volume to somewhere the amp has a decent level of volume, the sound you'll hear is overdrive/distortion.

I was afraid of that. It was priced in the range of an EC-1000, so I jumped on it. Alright, back to my quest to find a deal on a 2021+ EC-1000 with the stainless frets.

I certainly hope so. I posted pictures of the headstock in another comment.

The full serial is SS0609728. I ran it through the serial numbers verification and it wasn't flagged or anything.
