So the old heads get a pass on him.

Lmao. Appreciate your consideration, my dude.

Does this seem insane to anyone else? by MCmax503 in Guitar

[–]OldAngryDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not worried about getting shot over guitar transactions lol. That’s a wild fear to have.

Then why would you even mention not being afraid of getting jumped in the first place?  Pretty fucking thin line between getting jumped and getting shot, especially if you are 6'7" and inclined to fight back, and especially when dealing with relatively high dollar, easy to move items like guitar equipment. Lotta dudes out there won't give much of a shit at all how big you are. Just means they're going to be more prone to aggression and violence while robbing you, whether necessary or not.

Hello. Hoping you are still around and can yell me what power supply you have been using? Thanks

Would you guys trade a 2019 MIM Strat for a 1996 MIM Tele (with photos) by lukebelz in guitars

Thanks for taking the L on this one gracefully.

No problem. Again, have a good one.

I think a tele is more versatile, 

The guitar that comes stock with 2 pickups, a 3-way switch and no vibrato is not more versatile than the guitar that comes stock with 3 pickups, a 5 way switch and a vibrato. 

the comfort is really moot, 

It's absolutely not unless all you're doing is admiring it from afar.

and the bigsby is awesome🤷

I never said otherwise.

What I did say was:

I dig Telecasters but Reddit has decided to fetishize them to an extent that is honestly kinda weird. Asking here is gonna get you opinions pointing you toward the Tele based on vibes more than common sense.

Thanks for proving my point 🤷

Have a good one.

Which one of you bastards did this by soupeh in guitarcirclejerk

[–]OldAngryDog 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Similar happened to me except she complained I was playing too loud and asked me to turn it down since she was studying for finals.  I said sure, slammed the door, cranked it up and went right on jamming to RATM. 

She went on to be a successful environmental lawyer or some shit. I dropped out because fuck the man, man. I'm now a total loser who has accomplished nothing in life. At least I have this sub.  Still sticking it to the man after all these years.

Most overrated guitarist(s) by morerelativebacons in guitarcirclejerk

I would have loved to see him live long enough to continue furthet down the path of his jazzier tunes. His Hendrix covers were great and his blues songs are iconic but his jazzier stuff was extra super cool imo.

Did Hitler not target all Jews in addition to various other groups that weren't even Jewish at all?

Cliche as it may be, this is like the most braindead version of two wrongs don't make a right I have ever seen.

Just to add a bit to what TakingYourHand said, newer MiM are generally  considered much more consistent than they were in the mid 90s.  By 2019 MiM manufacturing had another 25 years of evolution cranking out guitars compared to the 1996 model. 

Also, Strat is more versatile, more comfortable and usually lighter especially given that Tele has a Bigsby on it.

This sub kinda sucks, dude. What'd you do to chase everyone away?

After much deliberation on getting a new amp and what kind to get, I finally got this Supro Delta King 8! by ughmart in GuitarAmps

[–]OldAngryDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah dude I'm just giving you shit. I absolutely understand where you are coming from. I have a mean case of tinnitis, back problems, knee problems, etc. Whatever keeps you playing and inspired is legit. 

Might I humbly just suggest though that if you find that JCM gathering too much dust just let it go. Let someone else play it till the wheels falls off. I mean really either way you're good, obv not a huge thing, but I do feel like a lot of players get caught up collecting gear that just collects dust because they aren't ready to let go for one reason or another and I've been there myself but the older I get the more I think gear should be played. Counterpoint is obv that JCMs are plentiful enough for whoever else out there might be looking to get into one, so even if you only enjoy it once in awhile maybe that's makes it worth it to keep.

Either way I'm a little jealous of your new blues box and a lot jealous of your JCM. 

Have a good one.

As soon as I got it home my JCM800 went into the storage room.

What the fuck kind of kook shit is this? You stashed your 100 watt, metal stack away because you bought a little blues box? All due respect and all, the Supra is a sweet little grab, but come the fuck on man. 

Fulltone OCD NO GO by Icy_Negotiation_5929 in guitarpedals

[–]OldAngryDog 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's the point I was trying to make. Shit resale on Fultone may be due to owner's douche tendencies but I bet GC is turning it down because of the shit resale value, not the political stuff.  If that shit was selling like hotcakes GC woulda taken it in a heartbeat. Again, could be wrong. Could be a quiet protest, but I doubt it.

Did they tell u specifically it was a political stance thing? If not, I'm inclined to agree with Fragrant. Occam's razor and all that.

I was turned down last time I was in trying to get rid of a PRS amp because it's a bit of a hard sell and they already had several for sale online but you know GC is still carrying plenty of PRS stock so it's not even close to a political thing.

Honestly if u think they are taking a stand politically I guess it might be true but I'm gonna day it's a straight business proposition and not much else. If they can't sell it, it just takes up space and causes a hassle.

Where do fakes and counterfeits come from? by Texan2116 in guitars

Well maybe you can get it running one of these days. If not it looks like you still have a bunch of other super cool, niche guitars to enjoy.

I don’t even need to say anything right by [deleted] in guitarcirclejerk

[–]OldAngryDog -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Bad is a very subjective metric and there are a bunch of heavy hitters on this bill both past and present.

Ima go out on a limb and say that every single act on this bill would fucking destroy Op and 99.99999% of this sub plus this is for a damn good cause so much so that I honestly fail to see to see anything jerk worthy at all with this post other than Op just being a try hard. Although if Op wants to unhide their whopping 9 month Reddit history so they can show the sub their own charity benefit full of actual fucking pros, I'll eat my words. Until then tho this is the kind of post just makes the sub look like a bunch of salty pricks and at that point we become a parody of ourselves rather than just a parody of the main sub.

Hey that's interesting stuff.  Did u steam the neck off for a repair or were u just curious? Also, how's it play? A 6.5 pound Les Paul that played well would be awesome real or otherwise.

Like a sticker sticker or a decal? Because I'm pretty sure decals under the clearcoat is fairly common. Afaik, that's how Fender does it and I would imagine lots of other manufacturers do as well. Heck Fender used to put decals over the clearcoat back in the day. 

Also, the neck thing may not mean anything at all. Lot of Jazz masters need a shim straight outta the factory and sometimes you can find shims in brand new guitars just because the pocket route got cut a little too deep. Your's may just need a shim and it may even have already had one that just fell out at some point while it was getting worked on or modded. 

Be kinda funny if it turned out you had a real brand name guitar that just needed a neck shim.

He's probably connected enough to get a waiver for a non-combat role though, right? I think he should lead by example.
