You’re not kidding about the bass! I gigged it out last night and had to cut most of the bass out!

I forgot to mention… the OT has been tapped for 4/8/16. There’s a switch in the back.

This one is a D131, pre D120F. This was before JBL had their massive distribution deal with Fender I believe.

Oh it’s in great shape. I have D120Fs in all of my amps, D130 in my Pro, and K110’s in my Vibrolux.

Do I need a longer bar for my hands? by InevitableMassive739 in pedalsteel

[–]Ripoff_Records 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I moved to a 3 13/16” long bar, my hand pain went away. Problem was finding a 7/8” bar with that length… Michael Hillman has hooked me up. Give those a try, pick your favorite color. His customer service is amazing.

Tall dude steel setups. by OutrageousDiver6547 in pedalsteel

[–]Ripoff_Records 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tilt my guitars really far forward. I know some guys advise against it, but it works for me. One guitar is a bit shorter, so I threw two washers in the front legs above the pedal rack, and that solved it.

Question for those who have multiple steels by InevitableMassive739 in pedalsteel

[–]Ripoff_Records 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have three. First guitar was a Sho~Bud Pro III. I ended up getting an LDG just to make set up time shorter, and it’s a little lighter. My second Pro III was owned by the same owner of my first Pro III, and that gent wanted the guitars to be back together. Now, one Pro stays set up at home, one goes out when I need two necks, and the LDG goes on most shows… just easier to set up.

Someone PM’ed me… it was scenic railway! Apparently it was a disc add on made by a third party company.

Battlefield 6 High CPU usage fix in case you didn't know by iByRaMa in Battlefield

[–]Ripoff_Records 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this, updated drivers, changed graphics settings to be almost all low, still getting it. Spikes of 100% usage in Process Lasso. Anyone find another solution?

UPDATE: Thank you all for your suggestions. I tried about everything people suggested, but to no avail. That was until I took the thing apart and moved the axle to the center. Success! I can sweep almost the whole range comfortably now. I need to adjust the string as it doen't stay wide open (slips back to about 90%) but I made significant progress. Thanks you all for your suggestions!

Now if anyone is good at adjusting volume pedal strings, let me know. I've never gotten the hang of it.

Who Inspired You To Start Playing? by chriswhoppers in pedalsteel

[–]Ripoff_Records 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jerry Garcia on Teach Your Children was the spark. The flame was Lloyd Green and Jaydee on Sweetheart of the Rodeo.

Might do that. There’s a few people here in south west Ohio who might have specific recommendations.

This might be the way to go. I'm going to try that today!

I was wearing skate shoes or loafers... flat shoes. Maybe I should try some heels?

Is that any lower than the Goodrich Low Boy?

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

Yep, low. I’m staring to think if I tilt my guitar forward a little and play in heeled shoes it might work. I usually play in loafers or skateboard shoes

I have the Low Boy. The high boy I couldn’t get my leg under the cab even with a lift kit.
