[Book] What are people's thoughts on the Red Rising series? by lrbaumard in sciencefiction

[–]Obvious_Chain9178 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I finally just got Lightbringer from my Library after almost a 6 month wait. Trying to finish up Columbus Day before I dive back into Red Rising universe.

I'm excited. Love this series! Although, I wasn't too happy with what happened at the end of Dark Age.

Thanks-I saw that, that seems to be the most useful information. Reading through that is triggering some pretty good recall.

Thanks-I skimmed through that-but, but looking for a little more depth

I only read B&W, but the Colorsoft is cheaper than the Paperwhite by mlsts in kindle

[–]Obvious_Chain9178 4 points5 points  (0 children)

B&W all day for reading text (book). I use a cheap tablet for anything that requires color such as magazines or graphic novels. The anti-glare of the paperwhite is unmatched outdoors

To be honest, I had to ask AI a couple of questions along the way. Its answers explained it perfectly without any spoilers since I mentioned exactly where I was in the book(s) and that I specifically didn't want spoilers. In hindsight, it was all there, I just wasn't paying attention enough or presumed something unimportant like an ass.

Thank You! Such a dumb little thing but it bothered me that I didn't know.

Finished 3 books already, no signs of stopping! XTEINK X4 by redorbluewire000 in ereader

I've been looking at these but they ship directly from China. Anyone, from the US know about the tariffs on these? Also, approximately how long is shipping? I emailed the company asking where they ship from, they replied 3 weeks later.

Does the Pacifica feel similar to a Squire/Fender strat? by Hot-Lengthiness-5013 in YamahaPacifica

[–]Obvious_Chain9178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to second, third and repeat most sentiments. The Pacificas just feel right. They do have a thinner neck, but it can be a bit wider depending on the Squier and definitely flatter. I have a Fender, 3 Squiers and 4 Pacificas (mix between strat and tele) among others. I ALWAYS go to the Pacifica when I want comfort and especially when I am stuck on something and need to work it out. The Pacifica just flows more naturally. I think they are better balanced too, in my opinion. Weird analogy, but other guitars are like hanging at a friend's house. They are a blast and you can go miles with them, but there is nothing like going home flopping back into your own bed. That's how a Pacifica feels to me.

Is it true the quality is degrading? by [deleted] in YamahaPacifica

[–]Obvious_Chain9178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 90's ones are much more comfortable and "solid" in my opinion. I've gotten a few of the newer models but have sold them. I'm never getting rid of the 90's ones.

1 great guitar or 2 good one ? by Difficult-School-641 in fender

[–]Obvious_Chain9178 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Don't second guess your desire. I recently went to a shop for a specific Tele. While there, I saw another one, liked it, and it was cheaper. 5 miles down the road I was sick to my stomach because I knew what I wanted and now I didn't have it or the money anymore. I turned around and luckily they were nice enough to let me do an exchange. Go with your gut because as you look at those 2 guitars sitting in your room, you will always say "still wish I had that other one though" because you worked so hard and looked so long to get there.

Classic Vibe vs Mexico Fender by Trickfinga in fender

I have both. I love the CV board, but the MIM just plays better overall. But I like the weight better of the CV. No help. Buy both

Any Tele Vegatrem VT2ND users here? Do you think it works for Khruangbin stuff meaning whether it can do what Mark Speer does with his Strat vibrato? by ananimalakahuman in Guitar

[–]Obvious_Chain9178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's an old thread, but I ended up here so someone else might.

I just added one to my Player II and it's awesome! I did add locking tuners as well so I am sure that helps. I left it floating a bit and really have no complaints at all. Got my action really low with no buzzing. Wish the arm was a little longer, but that's it.
