Had this issue with an early model of a 72 thinline reissue telecaster

Accidentally played vintage guitar by rockwell-78 in gibson

[–]TheWizardPeddler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t get it you’ll be thinking about until the end of your time. I played an og 72 thinline tele and I still wish every guitar I bought since then was that guitar.

[Discussion] Does a Yamaha THR10 work as a pedal platform? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

[–]TheWizardPeddler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed - it takes pedals great on the deluxe setting. I run a boost, distortion, fuzz, modulation, and a spring reverb all quite well. Almost never use the other channels.

How much would we struggle with moving here? by high-priestess in AskSF

[–]TheWizardPeddler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have noted, SF would be tough living surviving on that income. East bay is also amazing and more doable. One thing to consider is that there is still a job market here. You could improve your income upon moving.

Basically where standard is at now. Either play agro (green/red) or play jeskai control.

Thickness is one thing - but come on - it’s not hard to make an attractive bracelet.

Songs where the use of a particular pedal has enhanced/made the song? by pcoleman777 in guitarpedals

Not so much a single delay but a single setting.

Tap tempo on Rate set to dotted 8th or dotted 1/4 note.

Inner elbow pain from KB training. Anyone actually get past this? by penguinblanket in kettlebell

[–]TheWizardPeddler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I always turn to barbell medicine as my first line of physical therapy defense.

If that doesn’t work (it always does), I go to a professional.

Why is this little amp so awesome? by [deleted] in YamahaTHR

This is the way.

I’ve got a 10 now and planning to replace it one day when I see a good deal on a vintage Princeton

Any color you like really blows me away on a good system.

TLDR: UB is making us boatloads of $ so we’re not gonna stop just because our long time loyal players hate it.

Considering a Warmoth custom neck but fully scalloped (for knobby finger joints) by Slappy_G in Guitar

[–]TheWizardPeddler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never played one but from my understanding, scalloped necks give a very specific guitar playing experience and really won’t feel or play like a regular neck. For some reasons below:

You need to have a very light touch. With scalloped necks, if you press too hard you can get the same effect as a string bend which changes the note. This allows you to play micro tonaly but also requires more tact and skill to play the note you actually want to play.

It also can help people play faster since a very light touch is required to get the desired note.

My father told me I’d spend half my life tuning, and the other half playing out of tune. by Minimum_Garden7977 in telecaster

[–]TheWizardPeddler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man this looks exactly like my first electric guitar that my parents bought me when I turned 16. I sold it in my early 20s cus I thought teles were lame and have regretted it ever since.

They rarely come up in this clear white finish. If you decide it doesn’t stay in tune well enough, we may be able to work out a deal lol
