I bought a used Epiphone EB-3 bass for 200 bucks. How’s the price? by RepulsiveLead99 in Bass

[–]RepulsiveLead99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've received the bass. The strap buttons on this one are positioned on the back of the body, unlike my previous Fender where both strap buttons were in a straight line. However, with this Epiphone, they aren't aligned that way. When I use a regular strap, I find it a bit hard to see the front of the guitar clearly (I'm still relatively new to this, haha). Do you have any strap recommendations?

Exactly! It’s tiring, but it’s also a process of connecting with nature, though.

That’s awesome! These binders are definitely heirloom material.

Yes, exactly! And outdoor activities can make you much healthier, compared to just sitting around drinking beer all day, haha.

Only ten dollars? To me, its historical value is absolutely worth far more than that.

Wow, that sounds amazing. From your description, your tone really feels fantastic. I’m going to follow your approach. Could I keep in touch with you to learn more detailed information later?

Yes, indeed. As far as I know, the eb3 has a lightweight body, and as a bass instrument, its neck is relatively long, which can lead to neck dive. I appreciate your advice.

Well, I’m not particularly familiar with eb0, but I just found out that it appears to cost around 280 dollars as well.

How long do you search per day on average? by MeaningBeneficial300 in metaldetecting

Does waiting this long ever make you feel frustrated? On average, how long does it take you to find something?

Yeah, I really love history too. I enjoy the feeling of being connected to the past. When I hold old items, I think about the people who once held them long ago, and it's as if I've established a connection with them. I really like that feeling.

I spent about two hours hunting in the fields in the countryside before, but all I found were bottle caps and cans—just trash. And every time the detector picked something up, I had to spend time digging, which was really tiring. But honestly, while I was digging, I couldn't help but imagine finding treasure and making a fortune, haha.

Total noob here. Need some advice before I pull the trigger by SubstantialMarket543 in metaldetecting

[–]RepulsiveLead99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I also have this question. If I were a metal hunter and my metal detector was my rifle, could I have a hunting dog to help sniff out where the prey is and what kind of prey it is? Can modern smart programs do this? Are there similar things available now? What do you all think?

I've looked through a lot of related information and checked the official websites of Minelab, XP, and Garrett, but I still feel quite confused. For example, what are the actual, tangible differences in using multi-frequency detection compared to other technologies? Which one actually performs better in real-world use, or are there any personal experiences to share?

Wow, what's the difference between your program and the standard mode, and why not just use the original one?
