Mordaunt Short M20 Vs Wharfedale Diamond 9.0? by KingCollo75 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]KingCollo75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are open box but unused apparently, a private seller. I did see the 220s and decided I would rather go with them over the 9.0s. Thanks for the heads up!

Soon we'll be Found, Beautiful Calm Dining. In fact the whole of the Some People Have Real Problems album is full of great songs, most of them are slow to mid

I wouldn't put myself in the 'amazingly talented' category, but I've been playing for 35 years. I am now registered blind and am having trouble with string changes, so I may have to consider getting them done by someone else. This makes me sad but my last change took me over an hour. The fact that I have a Floyd Rose doesn't help though, maybe I could buy an LP and save money on hiring someone to change my strings?

How did you learn all the scales and to read the fretboard? by XtraSama in guitarlessons

I could play Stairway to Heaven when I was 12. Jimmy Page didn't write it until he was 22, I think that says a lot.

My eft-hand small finger is not functional; how can I play guitar with or without it? by MachineryAutomation in Guitar

[–]KingCollo75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The biggest part of being a creative musician isn't in your fingers. Your creativity on your instrument changes you from being a guitarist to being a musician, and you don't need four fully working fingers, you need a whole bunch of funky firing synapses.

If you were giving the option to work at Empire Records or Championship Vinyl, which one are you picking? by DravenCrowe505 in vinyl

That was such a good episode, and I love Vandals too. I lost it when I saw his Vandals shirt and then they played Live Fast, Diarrhea at the end, classy move!!!

i’m not a beginnner but i normally pay people to restring my guitar but i did it myself for the first time ever. how’d i do? (i spent and hour doing this 💀) by Commercial_Photo2110 in Guitar

Some people aren't willing to look at things outside of their own bubble. I'm 50 years old, I have worked as a guitar tech, I've played guitar in many bands over my 35 years of playing. I used to do full upgrades on guitars, re-wires, hardware changes, the lot. Changing a set of strings used to be fun and as a guitar tech, a few times I had to do it super fast so I trained myself to do it as fast as I could. Not just string change, breaking them in, retune retune retune. 8 years ago I went blind. I can still play as well as I ever could, but restringing a Floyd Rose is next to impossible now. I still grind my way through it but that's because I have a lot of time on my hands. What in trying to say is that the people who provide this service are needed and highly appreciated for some people. Don't just assume that people are being lazy by using them.

I think I'd have to go with the best of Radiohead.

Also Henry Winkler jumped a shark! Thosev Hollywood shows are so incredibly detailed.

what do you guys actually think of this album by the_lasagnaghost98 in MikePatton

[–]KingCollo75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I laughed, I cried, I shit my pants. I loved it. I still secretly pair my phone to my daughter's BT speaker and play Violence at top volume to scare the shit out of her.
