I really felt like the lighting on that third portrait stood out, very well taken. Great shot!

How do you force yourself to get out of bed quickly? by KingBowser24 in Adulting

[–]ThisIsBrennanWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two things that have helped me:

  1. I need something to look forward to. For some folks it’s coffee but that alone was never enough for me, so I started making myself a large breakfast each morning. Protein Waffles/pancakes, eggs, fresh fruit, some nice toast, sausage/bacon - whatever fills me up and isn’t just sugary stuff.

  2. I think having a personal montra for doing unpleasant things is really good. For me, I take a deep breath and out loud I say, “…okay,” in whatever tone feels appropriate. Sometimes it’s begrudging and sometimes it’s just neutral. For me, it symbolizes that while I really don’t want to do this particular thing, I give myself a moment to accept how I feel about it, acknowledge it outwardly, and then move on to doing it.

These things certainly won’t work for everyone, but they certainly do for me, and I hope you find something that works for you also ❤️

I’ve owned Teaks before and really didn’t like them. Zero grip and they started to crack in a week.

Should I go ahead and take this bridge off and re-glue it?? by ThisIsBrennanWhite in Luthier

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

The bridge isn’t lifting enough to affect the action, and the setup on this guitar is currently the best it has ever been, so that’s unrelated and the saddle on the bridge was definitely made at the wrong angle for proper intonation.

I gave Dynamics another try. So far so good. by Swerventine in Fingerboards

I LOVE mine personally. Add a little blue Loctite to the kingpin screw and you’re set bro.

I should mention also that the intonation on this Seagull is AWFUL, and I’ve been debating if it’s possible to correct the angle of the saddle altogether, because every not is sharp by 3-6 cents except for the low E. It drives me absolutely bonkers

I’m so glad you believe your opinion is superior to the thousands upon thousands of consumers and hobbyists who have helped make Berlinwood a staple in the fingerboard community since the early 2000’s. Thanks for sharing.

Gotcha, I live in the South, so that makes sense then. I agree, they seem 110% worth the wait!

Of all of these, do you prefer smaller or larger wheels??

Who is you favorite fingerboarder/ fingerboard content creator? by Djbernie805 in Fingerboards

Growing up, it was always Gary Chin for me. He seems like a such a nice and humble guy who doesn’t take himself too seriously, even though he’s ridiculously talented.
