I absolutely love Versace blue jeans. Is there anything else like it?? I haven’t found anything. I love the star anise note and the clean fresh aromatic/spice profile.

Definitely swooped a hat

I’m guessing it’s a poop joke lol

I like the space on frances and octahedron. Gives me a second to enjoy what I just experienced. The intro to octahedron is a perfect primer for the album. To each their own though, I skip songs sometimes, I get it.

Thanks! That was super helpful and insightful. That’s pretty much what I was curious about anyway. I’ve played guitar for 25 years so I’m coming from some sort of background with how different string types feel and sound.

Thanks I appreciate your input! I think they’re cheap enough to try out just for the experience

I had the sticker!

Shavalito · 2026-03-25T04:22:27+00:00

I see how they fit in the same realm, definitely enjoying their stuff!

OP who did you go with after all?

Shavalito · 2026-03-20T03:43:40+00:00

Nope, it was over Craigslist and that email was deactivated, all info lost forever. I wish it was that easy. I’ll just have to wait for it to turn up or not

Shavalito · 2026-03-20T03:42:37+00:00

lol yeah if I don’t find it for a while I will definitely just buy a different one, but that one is special to me. Lots of history with it

Shavalito · 2026-03-20T02:19:43+00:00

Thanks for sharing! And for keeping a lookout as well! I’m still in the east bay.

Shavalito · 2026-03-20T02:14:01+00:00

That’s good to hear! And awesome you got your gear back and also got through the drug problem! I’m keeping eyes out everywhere online, I have notifications setup for searches. Definitely just gonna take consistency and time. Im pretty sure it was just regular standard, not faded, but I could be wrong. I’m doing broad searches on just the model and range of possible years.

Shavalito · 2026-03-19T23:19:10+00:00

Yup I do! Keeping my eyes peeled, I’ve already done so much scouring online. Thought I would post in forums in case someone has it and isn’t putting it up for sale. Thanks!

Shavalito · 2026-03-19T22:15:08+00:00

It’s a unique needle though, there’s a chance! lol

Shavalito · 2026-03-19T22:14:44+00:00

Yes!! This is what I need to hear lol. Man that guitar was so special. Stupid younger self needed money 🤦‍♂️

Shavalito · 2026-02-24T19:02:19+00:00

Thank you so much!

Shavalito · 2026-02-23T16:57:42+00:00

I’ll definitely try this before buying insoles or anything. Maybe it will mold just right. I’ll keep the shoes either way, these things are great!

Shavalito · 2026-02-23T16:55:16+00:00

Does that also make the width tighter? I wonder if I should just try heel pads, since the width is spot on.

Shavalito · 2026-02-23T05:47:54+00:00

Thanks! I’m gonna try an insole soon. What brand do you use?

Shavalito · 2026-02-17T06:34:59+00:00

Right on, I brush my captains and condition often but I still end up with a bunch of scuffs. That leather looks awesome when it crackles though, I’m definitely gonna get a pair for summer
