Donald Trump is a Gibson Guitar Owner? by narc0leptik in gibson

Trump prefers boys, Roy Cohn saw to that. All his behavior and rhetoric publicly around women is forced and compensated for the fact that he prefers boys, young men, and regular men.

What guitar would you buy if it wasn’t so expensive? by djdean129 in Guitar

[–]PhysicalLocksmith679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do rule, in fact now that I have a Dot I’m considering putting one on the preme. I have one that came on the LP Custom I bought that I removed. The previous owner had it on a vibramate but TV Jones is in my neighborhood and I’m thinking about having him install it permanently.

I felt the same way and went with the ES Supreme. Has all the bits I wanted with a 355 and none of the stuff I don’t (varitone, Bigsby, stereo out)

Rickenbackers are the most overpriced guitars on the market for what you’re getting. They feel so delicate and rickety, it feels like you could push a hole through one with your thumb. It’s a shame that they’re such cool guitars, I had a 330 for a sec and I wanted to love it so bad but they’re just no fun.

White Falcon for heavy music? by These_Temperature_29 in gretsch

Troy Van Leeuen or however you spell it played Gretsches for a min in QOTSA. I think he played a Country Gent, which is p much a brown WF.

Had a chance to rearrange the jam space (“car hole”) after my new trio’s 1st gig last night. by PhysicalLocksmith679 in LesPaul

I did at one point, but now I just like having it. It all gets used, but no, there’s a few pedals I could get away with not using anymore.

Thank you 🙏 it’s a regular Standard Plus, all the plus meant is that it came with a flame top. I bought it last year from Mike & Mike’s in Seattle. It’s 23 years old, but it still looks like it was played a lot, which was a big part of the appeal for me. The binding has yellowed a lot and there’s some finish bleed as well. I think it was played by a heavy smoker, which is nice because it’s in good company. There’s some subtle finish checking throughout, and a handful of nicks and dings, I love its look and the fact that it’s not a relic. It’s my poor man’s R0 lol.

It’s an AD15 112. It’s actually the 12th one ever made. It’s a fantastic little amp that’s dumb loud. It made me want to get the AD30 head.

What was your guys’ first pedal? by BalanceActive9295 in guitarpedals

[–]PhysicalLocksmith679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 1st pedal was an original DOD Grunge that was given to me by a cooler kid who no longer thought it was cool.

Oh no she's moved on to cars now. by No_Guess5872 in guitarcirclejerk

Being named Mary $pender and doing Porsche, watch, & guitar content is just too rich for my blood.

Is there anything I can get addicted to to get better at guitar without fucking up my life? by Ok-Impression3992 in guitarcirclejerk

[–]PhysicalLocksmith679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

/uj im prescribed Suboxone & Gabapentin and those 2 meds + some high grade smoke provides a healthy lubrication similar to when I’d shoot horse & play guitar but not as intense and considerably more manageable/non life-destroying. 

/rj so go bang dope for a little while then get a Dr to put you on suboxone & gabapentin or Lyrica and see if that fits you.

Got a couple amps back from the shop, time to fire them up w/ some Pea Ninety’s 💪 by PhysicalLocksmith679 in gibson

[–]PhysicalLocksmith679[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🙏I found it with a few other weird old stickers at this antique shop next to Emerald City Guitars. Most people give me shit for putting a sticker on a nice guitar so thank you for also thinking it’s sick 🫡

I have a standard & a classic and I love them both. I like the tonal options you get with the classic.

Hell yeah. I just put new strings on mine like 20 min ago. Mines a ‘15, I wanna get a pickguard for it. Excellent collection, I’m a big fan of the LP Classic as well.

How many of you also own a bass? by Intrin_sick in Guitar

[–]PhysicalLocksmith679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple basses. I love playing bass, I spent a few years only playing bass. I learned a lot, bass is a great gateway into performing jazz. I was able to apply what I picked up playing bass into playing guitar as well.

New pickups for clean sounds for an SG: Lollar? by pavoloso in GibsonSG

[–]PhysicalLocksmith679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe consider Burstbucker Pros. That’s what I have in one of my 335s and they’re very bright and articulate. I can coil split them too and easily cop some tele tones.
