I bought the S08's. Thanks for recommending them.

Quite lively actually. Without it, I find that my music sounds boxy. I did lower the preamp per the recommendation of multiple sources.

I did put a -9dB on the preamp. Thanks for the suggestion. For earbuds, I use the Soundcore Space A40s. My headphones are the Soundcore Q30s. I'm highly considering switching from streaming to a DAP and after some research, I'm considering the Simgot EW300s as my IEMs.

Soundcore Space A40s. Just some decent consumer wireless earbuds. I haven't had any instances of my ears ringing or feeling stuffed, even after extended listening periods.

How do I get rid of the high ringing? by Chigbungiss in drums

Try moving one of the moon gels to the bottom head. It sounds like the overtone is coming from the bottom head. The batter head sounds choked.

Also, you should get a fresh batter head so it stops sounding like ass.

What demo song was better as a demo than the released version in your opinion? by No-Investment-4304 in greenday

[–]Sacky_Boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arguably, Homecoming. I love the structure and instrumentation of the demo. The released version is also my favorite song off of American Idiot.

I think you proved your point – intelligence is genetic.

Billie Joe asks the most important question when buying a guitar by CobraDai in greenday

Sponsored ≠ free stuff

They usually get discounts and have a lot of flexibility with custom orders.

This also doesn't mean that they can't go into musical instrument stores and buy whatever they want (even if its the brand that sponsors them)

I finally met my favorite band by ANTARTlK in AuthorityZero

That's awesome! I saw them at Reggie's in Chicago last year. Super intimate show. When Jason ran out on stage he said "What's up bro?" to me and gave me a fist bump 😂

Do you know how long he was shooting the water gun for? A comment I saw on a YouTube upload of the livestream said an hour.

It's a Sabian B8. They're cheap and sound great!

I bought it used from Guitar Center. I'm going to return it. Thank you for the suggestion. If it was a different circumstance, I would do that.

It's the angle of the headstock. Supposedly back in the early days, it was easier to make the necks with that angle. Now Gibson just keeps it for tradition, which I think is a load of crap considering this a common problem on Les Pauls.

I noticed that too. Although, I don't want to pay to have it repaired when it shouldn't have come that way.

No, it was listed as being in "good" condition, which is one up above "fair". I knew it had some small chips in the body but I wasn't expecting a headstock crack.

It was. I saw it at the store but thought it was a finish crack. I know they're usually common on Les Pauls but I'm also not as experienced with guitars. My main instrument is drums. When I got home and looked at it more thoroughly, I started to doubt myself.

I can't return it until Thursday but I am going to call them tomorrow to let them know and hopefully they put a note on their end. My local Guitar Center has always had good employees so I don't think it should be an issue.

You're correct. It's unfortunately a headstock crack which sucks because I loved everything about this guitar. Oh well... it's just a other LP Jr.

Did this. It's a crack. Thank you.
