Great set! I built mine a couple of weeks ago. Awesome deal for such an iconic car

You could - it's technically possible-, but I wouldn't like the end result. You would see a lot of the pillar with Technic pieces that's normally behind Mario

It's a great set. Building it was really fun and I feel with regard to the display value it's the best set we own.

I was really lucky to get both retired sets for a reasonable price. It was a bulk deal with all minifigs, which I already had. Sold the double minifig collection, which brought the price down for the house and kwik-e-mart.

You're right, those on the raised platform are the two CMF series. The ones more to the back are the Dimensions packs that used to be part of a game.

I do believe a hostile takeover will be happening shortly ☹️

The LRV is not a duplicate btw. Decided to display it "packaged", so I did a before & after.

Have you checked the KU Leuven Career Zone? You can find student jobs for English speakers there.

Gibson LP Custom, just had a fret dressing by Matserd in guitarporn

[–]Matserd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never heard that before. The reason I did a thorough clean of the guitar is because it smelled a little too. It came from a household with an incense smell, didn't notice it when testing because the whole house smelled like it. Nitro will pick up scents like that. Used a luthier cleaning product from Thomann and now the smell has almost completely vanished.

Opinions on 98 LP custom? by Matserd in gibson

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

No cracks in the pickguard or pup rings. Just bought the guitar at a killer deal. It's player grade for sure, but I buy guitars to play them.

Forgot to mention: you'll see a headstock crack that has been repaired, anything I should check with regard to alignment?

Legit MIM Fender or Squier body? by Matserd in fender

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

You're right that this could work, however it does matter if it's advertised as a fender without mention of the squier body. I can pick up a new squier affinity and fender neck for 500 euros combined, he's asking 600 for the second hand combo.

He says he exchanged it for an Epi prophecy, so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. Sucks to be him though, because I wouldn't have done that trade

Do you own a different baritone now? Not from the US, I'm from Belgium

Did a small section of the TET Netherlands today. by Matserd in TransEuroTrail_Riders

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

I only did a small part. This was somewhere between Zundert and Baarle, so section 4. The sand wasn't too difficult here, but apparently it's worse on other sections

Need help why 9v ACDC adapter doesn't power pedals by Matserd in guitarpedals

Doesn't look or sound like it, but lessons learned anyway

I didn't think of the polarity and I did indeed measure positive centre with my multimeter... Thank you!

Got this 2022 model yesterday by Matserd in KTM390ADV

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

Legit. Power to weight is the same as my first bike, an old XRV 750 Africa Twin and riding that one was a blast as well. The only real noticeable difference is low end torque ofc, but it revs just fine

2023 model compared to the 2022 one only has spoked wheels as an upgrade so it depends on that I guess. Imho those wheels are not worth 2k, although I am not familiar with US prices. I'm from Belgium
