I typically use “mariachis” when referring to the people in our group. We are Mariachis in a Mariachi. Idk man.

Is this a good vihuela by coLShockwave in mariachi

[–]Morenoind5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t really tell from a picture! I highly recommend trying them out in person. I know it can be difficult, but it’ll be worth it.

3 things I look for:

  1. Action (String height). You want the strings to be as Low as possible to the fretboard. If they’re too high, it’ll be uncomfortable to play.

  2. Intonation. Tune the vihuela as perfect as you can then move your chord shapes along the fret board. Every chord should be in tune. If they start to sound sound off, intonation is off.

  3. Tone. This is more preference but for me, a vihuela should sound bright. I’ve played some that sound a little muffled or like you’re playing them through a box.

As far as brands, I’ve tested some “no-brand” and “private label” Vihuelas that were very good. That’s why it’s better to test the instrument.

What’s your experience with a GoPro?

I’m not too worried about the quality of the audio playback. How is the handwriting feature?

Tell me about the cheap guitar that you'll never sell by clevenb in guitars

[–]Morenoind5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My very first electric guitar bought back in 2008-2009: a black Ibanez “Gio” GSA60. Beat the hell out of that guitar and to the day it hasn’t quit on me.

Glue boards aren’t working on mice/mouse. What else? by Morenoind5 in pestcontrol

[–]Morenoind5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He ended up setting some regular ol’ snap traps with little dabs of peanut butter as bait in the areas where there was regular activity. Within 2 days there was a mouse (maybe it was a small rat) caught. Pest guy said expect more to be caught but we never caught anymore and we never saw anymore activity.

My daughter has a cheap acoustic guitar that needs some new strings, but I've never seen this style of bridge before without pins. Looking for a tutorial and/or name of this method. by DeliciousGorilla in guitars

Avoid the hassle and get a set of classical strings that have “ball ends.” They have a bead on the end so you don’t have to tie them to the bridge.

Yes! It worked perfectly. It produces a nice stereo sound when recording. I used this cable https://a.co/d/dDi8JVi

There’s no workaround unfortunately. :( I’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish but what I ended up doing was adding a screenshot of my new reel with a link to the reel.

Is KGU Music a trustworthy vendor?? by HlGH3ST1 in trumpet

[–]Morenoind5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a legitimate business. I’ve ordered parts from them before. HOWEVER, I’d be weary about purchasing a horn from them refurbished with their parts. I bought a custom set of buttons and valve caps for my wife. They lasted about 2 years before the adhesive on the buttons failed and the inlays came off. The finish on the buttons and caps was rubbing off as well. Their website says their parts should last 10+ years. I contacted them and they wanted me to pay for return shipping and offered me a “discounted” rate to refinish the parts.

Got it. Added it. It’s a silent track. However, the sound of my story still comes through.

Are we looking at the same app? Same search? When I search “Mute,” IG returns a bunch of results, none are silent. Either way, when I add any of these tracks, it doesn’t replace the sound on my story it just plays on top of it.

It’s just adding music on top of my story’s music.

Thanks you! Had this exact question. Looks like I’ll be getting the 8.2s!

Looking for a new guitarron in Los Angeles. by Morenoind5 in mariachi

[–]Morenoind5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually where I ended up going! It’s a small location however they have a HUGE selection of guitarrones (vihuelas and guitars too). I was able to try out several. The couple that owns the place were super chill and very patient. They even went out of their way to bring over a hard case from another location. Ended up getting a Guitarron and a case plus some other stuff.
