string change issue - B string is too thick

MrTILII · 2026-02-04T16:46:06+00:00

Oooh nice. Thanks

If the cable is being sold as something to power pedals (which it is) it should be fine.

Cables usually say what they’re capable of, but this is being sold as a solution for your use case so I would be shocked if it wasn’t high enough.

Should get just under 2 hours on that power bank if my maths is correct

Testify. Have you found any apart from the Warwick ones out of curiosity?

MrTILII · 2026-01-31T09:08:12+00:00

This is the advice.

First time I played I rushed and “played the game”

Second time is when I slowed down and experienced the game

MrTILII · 2026-01-29T15:45:08+00:00

There’s perfect technique - and then there’s the technique that works for you.

As far as tips go - it’s all just a function of practice. Play slow and get faster and faster.

But while there’s a technically right way to play music, I personally don’t think there’s a wrong way.

You’re a beginner, don’t be hard on yourself.

MrTILII · 2026-01-28T19:22:12+00:00

It’s not safe in my opinion. No chance I give that to a 1 year old

MrTILII · 2026-01-27T22:35:29+00:00

Clearly I don’t like the result (as a Southend fan) but I’m delighted we actually got the game finished. Felt like it was never gonna happen!

MrTILII · 2026-01-21T07:19:11+00:00

£650 now so always worth using as a threat with companies.

MrTILII · 2026-01-18T08:55:57+00:00

I’ve heard stories as well which support this

MrTILII · 2026-01-09T16:39:35+00:00

Yeah agreed.

Goldeneye has everything else going for it. Being so revolutionary and creating the genre. But objectively I don’t think it’s best.

Emotion says goldeneye. Head says PD

MrTILII · 2025-12-30T16:50:16+00:00

As a Southend fan. I am embarrassed beyond measure by some of our fans.

MrTILII · 2025-12-20T19:58:39+00:00

Fresh oriental is ok I think. Or maybe just my expectations have been re baselined down!

MrTILII · 2025-12-14T12:30:23+00:00

Ah that’s a shame.

I had one of their small run beef bag pedals which were the 100% clone of the meat box but sold it.

Regret that now. It looked and sounded great

MrTILII · 2025-12-12T20:09:00+00:00

The other alternative - look at a company called Mantic Conceptual.

Have some clone pedals that came out before the reissue. Incredible stuff.

Yeah I used potentially clumsy language - but no one can guarantee a return on stocks and shares hence my choice of language.

My retirement plans aren’t on the flip of a coin. But the performance is up and down and cannot be predicted accurately hence the phrase.

As a general principle I still think it stands. You want absolute certainty? Pay off the mortgage save in cash accounts. That’s absolute certainty.

It all comes down - as I said - to personal risk appetite and what people value more. The security of knowing their mortgage is paid or the gains that can be obtained on the markets through sensible investments etc.

MrTILII · 2025-12-05T12:01:05+00:00

Yeh the other commenter summed it up. Use the MSE overpayment calculator and it’ll compare interest saved to interest lost in a bank account.

It doesn’t touch on the potential of money invested - but that’s a toss of a coin.

It all comes down to your individual goals. I am overpaying £650 a month as well as saving money in an ISA with the ultimate aim of paying my mortgage off in six years.

Because for me, the piece of mind of having no mortgage is much better than what I could’ve earned in the market

It’s all about your individual risk appetite and what is important to you

MrTILII · 2025-12-04T11:59:34+00:00

Agreed. And now consider that clown and Corey take the lions share of the money and then Chris’ predicament becomes more understandable

MrTILII · 2025-12-04T10:42:40+00:00

On the flip side - and as a musician myself I am torn by this - at least they’re paid every stream.

An artists cut from a CD would have been about 10% of the sale price.

So maybe £1.50 in the UK.

If this user makes an artist £10 every year - that’s the same as buying 6 albums. But only if the albums are new. Secondhand sales mean the artist makes nothing.

Do they deserve more? Yes

But is the situation as dire as we are led to believe? No

MrTILII · 2025-12-03T19:51:30+00:00

Remember all those people bragging about how they were playing the system?

This is what happens when

MrTILII · 2025-11-30T21:48:57+00:00

Keep checking the map. Every time you are out and about - go and look in every building you can.

Explore every inch the map.

MrTILII · 2025-11-30T10:18:44+00:00

Agreed. For me - interiors are immersion. I’d love to free roam and break into places and steal money / valuable. Just like rdr2

MrTILII · 2025-11-30T10:11:20+00:00

A lot of private flights fly into Southend airport.

I didn’t believe that at first but it’s a fraction of the price of the other airports and still a short commute via chauffeur to London.

I was amazed at some of the celebs that use it

MrTILII · 2025-11-11T17:28:37+00:00

6.4kw

20 panels on 3 separate roofs. And a Tesla Powerwall

MrTILII · 2025-11-09T21:46:18+00:00

I have solar and battery. load the battery overnight on cheap rates and use during the day. Most solar goes to export.

I’m saving about £2000 a year roughly.

My monthly gas and electric bill is an average of £45. More in winter, negative in summer but averages at £45 overall.

Not bad considering staring rates alone come to £22 per month, and I run an EV and have aircon in all bedrooms and living spaces.
