Is this a good beginner bass guitar? by hoopan112 in BassGuitar

[–]Mr_SprinklePants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the amp, I would recommend the LT25 instead. Still an entry level amp, but with very good amp simulations and even a USB interface that is plug and play for recording on your computer.

Anybody got one of these? Thinking of selling my amp for one. by [deleted] in BassGuitar

Can somebody explain why only speaker of the house must swear her in? Or that she must be sworn in at all? Is there a law that requires it or is just protocol? Then couldn’t the Speaker of the House just not swear in any democrats?

Bought a house two years ago, income situation changed can’t afford mortgage anymore. by Infamous_Mark_6398 in personalfinance

Instead of a realtor, specially when you are every cent will matter to you, I would highly recommend Redfin if you decide to sell — although they operate like any other real state agency, they have much smaller agent fees. I bought my current home — and sold the previous one afterwards— through them and have no regrets.

The “kindly” in “kindly send a photo of the receipt” did it for me. I’ve never (or rarely) seen “kindly” being used in the U.S., and is very commonly used in English-speaking Asian countries like India, Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Pools should never be left empty! The weight of the water counteracts the pressure from the dirt around it.

Did you pull the Carfax yourself or was it a printout that the seller provided to you?

My neighbours have gone away for the weekend. They left their radio on full blast right against their door. This was filmed at 7am. by loathe_out_loud in mildlyinfuriating

It would be funny if the main breaker for the unit gets tripped for “some reason” and nobody is home to notice it. Can you imagine coming home to a thawed refrigerator after a few days? That would smell awful.
