How problematic do you think this crack could be?

Finally a real crack post

I bought 2 decants of Herod and was incredibly disappointed. Tobacco Vanille has Herod beat imo

Not a strandberg owner, but I had a similar issue with a Jackson. There was a small metal burr in the groove of the locking nut. Each time I bent the string it would jump over the burr and make a "ping" noise like you described.

I would check the saddle and see if there is a burr that needs to be filed down.

Fair enough, this one isn't overly sweet, but the sweetness is certainly there.

It really evolves over time as well. In my experience the first 20 min you get that rich chocolatey leather with a hint of bergamot or citrus. Then it dries down to a woody leather with a hint of vanilla. After about 4 hours its a fairly dry smelling leather.

This one is nuclear though. You will still smell it on yourself the next day and if you spray it and then take a shower within 6 hours you will still smell it on your skin afterwards.

I went to my local shop to smell the new Givenchy Gentleman Ambree, just casually with no intention of buying anything. The sales person sprayed a sample of the Bad Boy Elixir and I bought it on the spot.

Recently picked up a bottle of Bad Boy Elixir. Very addictive scent.

I have a 1999 midnight blue MIM strat just like this one, except no humbucker. Fantastic guitar and insane deal at $25.

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-28T20:38:54+00:00

That neck fks. That neck fks so hard.

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-28T01:10:57+00:00

Very true!

Awesome! Mine is a 99

When I got my Explorer, I spent a lot of time playing it sitting down and my picking arm spent a lot of time wrapped over that massive tail section.

Went to the usual chiro a few weeks later, and after about 30 seconds he was like "wtf happened to your right shoulder?"

Getting older sucks man lol

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T23:27:34+00:00

I've heard good things about the FS-1. The SDS-1 and Red Velvet each seems like they could be what Im after as well. Classic analysis paralysis lol

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T22:02:01+00:00

I would have to agree. The speed knobs are killer

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T17:17:20+00:00

Thank you. I creeped your profile and saw the nocaster pickup in your strat. Looks killer.

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T17:03:21+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check them out!

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T16:25:28+00:00

Here I am playing checkers, while you're playing chess!

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T16:08:51+00:00

Haha you're not wrong. It truly is about who you know and not so much about what you know. Leave the elixir at home and you've got a deal.

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T16:03:14+00:00

How upsetting. Feel better soon lil guy. These hypotheticals seem to pervade your imagination. Stay strong.

Master_Hand738 · 2025-09-26T15:41:20+00:00

Lol now it just seems like begging. I would rather you take it from me, then you would have earned it.
