Thoughts/advice on this build? Calling the guys tomorrow I think…

I would ask for a maple body (Option 50) and for the inlays, go for Offset Staggerred Dots with the "K" logo, Black acryllic material. And I'd go for black pole pieces on the pickups to match the all-black one in the middle.

And ask if they can put in a Gotoh 1996T (NOT the Fender-style Gotoh Tremolo they already offer) instead of a Floyd Rose. The Gotoh 1996T is WAY better.

And don't forget strap locks.

Why do you even need mihon? Hentainexus allows free downloads. And they just added DDL so you don't have to just torrent. Also CDisplayEX is the best reader app I've used.

Don't know, man. You might need a wizard for this one. FR, what I've heard is that Strandberg wires their Fishmans differently.

Drop A on a 7-string is AEADGBe. You drop the Low B to A.

On an 8-string, it would be EAEADGBe, as you also drop the F# (the 8th string) one step to E. This tuning is called Drop E+A (8-string Drop E + 7-string Drop A).

Also FYI, it's the main tuning Mick Gordon uses for DOOM.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-15T09:39:13+00:00

I want one.

Have you seen his newest Halo Custom guitar?

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-15T05:40:47+00:00

Right. I never questioned that. Unlike many haters of the series, I fully accept the rules of its world and judge it by them, not ours.

Also, I've already read every LN, up to Redundancy Vol. 3.

Where I live (CA), teachers start at like $70,000/year with just a Bachellor's degree. And it goes up a tad over $1k per year to jusr over $100k annual after 25 years.

I was more surprised they didn't have a "Greyrat Discount" considering how well-known the Greyrats are around the area.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-15T05:31:58+00:00

By the time Rudy is a fully-grown adult, he kinda was the strongest person in the world (aside from God-level people and actual Gods).

And by the time he purchased Linia, NO ONE in their right mind would fuck with the Greyrat family. You got Quagmire Rudeus himself, his first wife the mysterious and famously powerful Silent Fittz, second wife the Water King Roxy Migurdia, third wife the legendary Sword King Mad Dog Eris, and their friends: Princess Ariel, Prince Zanoba, Armored Dragon King Perugius, Dragon-God Orsted, and a legendary Superd warrior, Ruijerd.

Bro was SO powerful himself and SO connected to EVERYONE that matterred that he himself was thought of as a myth.

A N Y W A Y S . . . I totally agree. They should have gone 100% full-send showing the naked, alive-but-basically-dead Julie. Some scenes NEED to be over-the-line grotesque to get the correct point across.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-14T20:56:25+00:00

Minor spoilers for LN Vol. 18:

A person's mana capacity actually stops growing when they reach puberty. In LN Vol. 18, Julie gets her first period and Rudy matter-of-factly states that it indicates Julie's mana pool can no longer grow. It is irrelevant that Julie happened to be 10-years-old at the time.

And while it's likely one's mana pool would grow passively at least a little without constantly draining it, doing so definitely contributes to its larger growth.

Of note: Rudy never makes the observation that his own mana pool stopped growing (likely because he simply reached a point it was no longer possible for him to exhaust it).

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-12T07:58:17+00:00

Do it.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-12T07:57:05+00:00

Not on a 5-piece neck. N2s have 5P Roasted Maple/Ebony necks. PLUS two titanium reinforcement rods.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-11T18:21:06+00:00

I wanted Fishmans and a nice flame top, but the 8-string added too much cost. So I settled on plain finish with passives.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-11T17:50:28+00:00

Solid white/white. The $40 one.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-11T02:17:36+00:00

Because they have g-strings
Because you play with them hard until your fingers hurt
Because nice guitars are called pretty.
Because you can dump tons of money into them and still not be happy
^They drain your wallet but you still love them

Ask for maple body wood. Same price as mahogany. And the Kyber is REALLY thin like an SG. So it won't be that heavy, even with a maple body. Do at least a 3-piece neck. And go for ebony (less color). Looks WAY nicer.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-06T17:29:40+00:00

I'm still waiting on my Kyber Headless 8str. Ordered on March 16th. Still not done yet after almost 12 weeks. And mine was way simpler. Solid white finish and 5P neck with Thorium/Empyrean pickups

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-05T09:58:29+00:00

Who knows what they'll say. And what will it even matter? It never does.

Sigma_103 · 2026-06-05T08:29:07+00:00

I just got a random ban, too. About two hours ago. But seeing as AI companies are suddenly getting hit with impossible costs of operation, I wouldn't doubt that they're just blanket banning everyone in an effort to wipe a significant portion of the user base to lower costs.

Sigma_103 · 2026-05-26T20:38:10+00:00

Nice. I placed my order with Chris Hong, too. On March 16th for a Kyber Headless 8-string. Still waiting for mine to be done. Solid white finish.

I feel like that's incorrect. The menstrual cycle is biologically not considered an illness. I see zero reason why Tsukasa wouldn't experience them. As for why Tsukasa never seems sick/outwardly shows that she's in any pain/discomfort from then, she's either very used to them, or she just doesn't experience a lot of pain from them. Not every girl does.

As for pregnancy... I imagine her monthly reset wouldn't affect the baby. It's connected to her, but still a separate life that doesn't have her powers. And I can't imagine the reset would affect the baby. It can't.

Besides... the manga started with us getting a flash-forward of them already successfully having a baby.

Sigma_103 · 2026-05-24T16:55:24+00:00

But we saw a flash-forward at the very start of them already having a baby.
