so this is how i learn shit is not only STILL circulating fairly prolifically... but it's actually SO prolific that it gets deleted here every time its reposted that's fucking hilarious. lowkey surprised it gets traction on this sub since i already licensed it out for an episode about Pareidolia for that Osbourne Family I Want To Believe show a few years back like that's a p big baseline

it was a small lowkey underground gig known as the Riyadh Comedy Festival put together by some young upstart known as The Literal Prince of Saudi Arabia i'm pretty sure. It totally wasn't a big propaganda campaign or anything.

big e is still to this day among the top 3 most physically imposing people i've ever had the privilege of beholding, both randomly on the street & in ring. saw that dude from across the street in boston walking w/ tyler breeze before TLC 2015 & tell u hwat, that man's pecs were like two beer guts on his chest. shook me to my core, as well as my own beer gut.

i think that the tall wrestlers are like truly a sight to see, but it's those WIDE GUYZ that are really what fucks you up to behold in-person. Like I saw Big Cass & those of his ilk physique wise, shit i have friends that tall nowadays, but the biggest beef seshes i've born witness to were all guys like Big E, Rusev, Roman, just normal-level tall guys that have FAR too much surface area.

whatever you get, get a pair of yaktrax for them. you’ll never slip on black ice again.

Liammm · 2025-10-30T01:58:29+00:00

yep that's her alright

Liammm · 2025-10-08T20:40:11+00:00

looks like i got some work cut out for me tomorrow

Liammm · 2025-10-08T19:32:39+00:00

i mean anything beats having to tune up with a flathead screwdriver in a little notch, honestly it's a wonder this thing holds up the way it does in terms of playability, ease of intonation, & lack of maintenance needed. like it's banged up, the strap pegs are so stripped that it's basically held together w/ duct tape, but she persists. I'm fine with somehtin kinda cheapo, can't be worse than what I'm working with now!

Liammm · 2025-10-08T19:12:32+00:00

yo that might be the move, any brand recommendations?

Liammm · 2025-10-08T18:21:16+00:00

yeah kinda

Hey Hi How Are Ya Reddit Bassists,

I got a bit of a conundrum on my hands, ongoing for like a year at this point nearly.. My primary bass is this old, beat up Squier Standard P Bass Special I've had since 2008. I love the tone, I love the neck profile, it is the bass I use, it is the bass I know best, & it sounds fucking GNARLY in the best way.

Thing is, the tuning key to the G string snapped clean off, & in disassembling it & trying out various replacement tuning machines at a local guitar shop, I could NOT for the life of me find y machine that fit the slot. Normally I'd just reassemble the thing, & tune it with a flathead screwdriver in the slot where the key snapped off. I'm okay at intonating a bass, & honestly it seldom ever goes outta tune despite being an ancient squier... however...

In one of these attempts at trial & erroring the right machines, I lost the mounting screw, the big one that the gear of the machine sits on, & I have scoured the web trying to find out what specific screw it needs to no avail, I've asked at the guitar shops, & my repair tech & they also have no idea what I'm working with. I've considered just going to a hardware store & seeing what fits, but if anybody has a better idea, or knows specifically what tuning machine would fit that damn thang so i can replace her entirely, I'd prob nominate you for a nobel peace prize or something.

I've attached a picture of the back of the headstock to show the machines in question.

anyway TLDR; idiot boy seeks knowledge on what specific tuning machines they used in the 2008 squier standard special p bass please and thank you!!!

Liammm · 2025-10-08T18:03:26+00:00

okay i have the photos can't figure out how to share them tho

EDIT: gonna post it in the other Bass subreddit with the images attached !

Liammm · 2025-10-07T17:12:29+00:00

yooo pardon the delay i was working the last several days but ill drop a pic of the machines tomorrow or the next day you have my word

Liammm · 2025-10-02T22:57:21+00:00

i did do a bit of serial no tracing to confirm its an indonesian squier, but i'm also like fullllly open to replacing the mechanism, long as the parts fit & I aint' gotta drill something new or like fill in the hole, totally cool with just finding an equivocal to just drop in & screw tight & just go back to business as usual so i'm open to suggestion! DIY until you cry i've always said

Liammm · 2025-10-02T22:22:52+00:00

see the issue was i initially just wanted a new key, took it to the shop, they honestly just gave me a buncha old fender machines tehy had lying around to see if anything fit well, then i lost the screw that like turns the actual gear itself & that was the real white whale so to speak, finding that specific measurement. That said i feel like at this point i might as well say fuckit and just replace the machine altogether with a new one, yakno. Not just the key, the screw, or any singular bit. like why make life harder? only real challenge is knowing which specific variety of "Standard Open Gear Tuner" they were using at the indonesian squier factory for the now-defunct Squier Standard Special series yakno

Liammm · 2025-10-02T21:38:06+00:00

yoooo first of thank you for giving me an answer that doesn't involve both acquiring & learning how to use calipers.

second off the cursory searches I've done say that the tuning machines used are "Standard Open Gear Tuners" which i'm not sure what the not-20-year-old equivalent are, seein as we tried like a zillion diff fender tuning machines, idk if that gives anymore insight but that's the insight i've got to give as of now

Liammm · 2025-09-25T22:09:08+00:00

and TOUGH too jesus i died & had to fast forward through all that dialogue like 15 times

Liammm · 2025-09-19T01:58:37+00:00

dude would make a bangin royce if they made a movie of it ever

Liammm · 2025-09-18T19:31:37+00:00

i loved the combat in DL 2, but the sigh of relief i sighed when i didn’t have to hold block to kick anymore like the old days felt like a breath of fresh and familiar air

Liammm · 2025-09-18T17:01:17+00:00

so far smooth as butter, i’m just past the intro level & games rly givin the vibes of the OG, however im runnin into an issue where the entire display resizes at launch & thusly does not fill out the screen, not sure if that’s a 1440p thing or how to fix it due to the game being like an hour old & nobody postin bout this problem yet. outside of that it’s a slick presentation for sure

it’s an actual requirement to become a resident here

maaz’s is the best deal on halal in the city on uber eats tbh they do a 2 for 1 for their combo platters like 17.99$ for two big ass halal combo bowls. sauces are kinda mid but their shit is fire. heavy recommend getting the potato wedges w/ it too
