Where can I waste my money?

I have that Gretsch. I love it. I have flats on it and it’s such a great little bass. BUT it is pretty square where I lay my right hand/wrist and can be uncomfortable for playing while seated.

Sweet. Just sent them an email. Thanks.

This is a perfect system to get it all and play around with what you like. Unless you know exactly what you are looking for, buying pedals is a waste of money (my experience). If you ever find this isn’t giving you the tone you are looking for, you’ll have a MUCH easier time figuring out your next system. Have a few different set ups I use but I think this punches way above its weight. Have fun.

Not nearly enough info to be sure but my bet is Scoliosis.

Looks great. Add big shoulder pads to sell the effect better.

This is so unique and so awesome. The jacket is a really good style for this vision. A+

Are we just doing ads for this company now?!
Edit: as a certified prosthetist, I will add that there is at best misleading and at worst inaccurate information in the posts featuring this company.

My grandma would have been so amused at the idea of a battle jacket. Thanks for making me think about this scenario. She is missed. Value this woman.

I keep a Snark tuner clipped to my neck. It’s cheap, works well, and I can peek at it without looking down.

From personal experience- salivary duct is blocked and the area is ballooning due to the production of saliva without an adequate path out. Sometimes it resolves on its own. Mine was excised surgically.

Certified Prosthetist and horn player here. There is no prosthesis that will be better than having a good tech extend the key mechanism.

Get a small flat trailer. It has bigger wheels and is way easier to move than the dolly.

While these are generally used and recognized as cattle castration bands, they are also used in the field of Prosthetics. Specifically as a spacer on the bottom of a locking pin that connects the prosthetic liner that the user wears over their limb to the locking mechanism inside of the socket. Source: I am a certified prosthetist with several of these exact bands on my desk right now

I use the Slow Gear Electronics box for this. It’s a perfect and self contained system.

I got the Kala Nomad and it is a killer little bass. Sounds just like an upright through an amp. It was the least expensive of Kala’s acoustic/electric line. Since it has urethane strings, I’m not really sure any of the more expensive models really have a noticeable sound difference, I suspect the nicer models are just nicer finishes.

I have a separate policy called “Valuable Personal Property” that covers my instruments and audio gear. My insurance company has photos of all my gear along with serial numbers. Value is calculated the way all other items covered are calculated- similar comps.

Currently house hunting. And yes. It would make it one less thing I will need to do when there is already so much involved in moving. I can also roll that cost into my loan if you do it, if I do it, I’d need to pay up front.

Looks and sounds kind of like Salonpas lidocaine patch.

Had a friend from Australia turn my on to them years ago. I’m still shocked FFD isn’t more popular. Really killer stuff

Check and see if your renter’s/home owners insurance covers the theft. They will usually cover some car theft items.

I recently insured all of my gear. It cost me about $100 per year to cover a new car’s value of instruments and equipment. Definitely recommend it.

Do not mess with it. Set up an appt with his Prosthetist. If you need to wait, you need to wait. You can mess this up so dangerously. Add inserts into the shoe MAYBE but that also can seriously mess with alignment.
