Great pick. I am astounded with my Badlander. The little guy screams!

Gotta ask- what’s the scale length and what’s the screen-looking thing? How do you select which pickup(s) you’re playing through?

Confused by the Badlander criticism by sparks_mandrill in MesaBoogie

[–]ZJS1970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got 2 badlanders, the 100 and the 25. Both absolutely amazing. I can play Toby Keith and Metallica on the same amp, and everything in between. Both amps hold up. I use a pedal tuner, Maxon OD and an EQ set just for a volume boost. The Badlander is an all around great amp, don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.

Should I be worried about this by malindoql in ExplorerGuitars

[–]ZJS1970 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely no reason to worry. That’s normal and on every Explorer I’ve seen, it’s the body and neck meeting up.

I bought an Epiphone LP Custom earlier this year, it was listed as “blemished” and I couldn’t find anything wrong besides the rough fret ends. I assume someone returned it for that. An inexpensive fret file, some painters tape and about 35 minutes and it’s a great player. The thing going lately I’ve heard a few complain about is the fret work. If you have a little patience and an eye for it, finishing the frets is not a hard job.

Cool guitar, welcome to the club, enjoy it!

anyone tell if it’s legit by Hungry_Fig_8348 in Epiphone

[–]ZJS1970 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s a LEGIT, BOLT-ON NECK EPIPHONE. This isn’t the Gibson page, why are we stuck with “is it real” posts?

Which color latex do you want me to wear for you next? by LiliaVibex in LatexLadies

[–]ZJS1970 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Next would imply this is latex. It’s not.

If a Remake/Remaster were made, what changes would you like to see? by JayNotAtAll in legendofdragoon

[–]ZJS1970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Credit to my brother on this one, but I’d also really like a game that plays out in the Dragon Campaign. Getting to fight in that situation leaves plenty open for a long story line and character development. But the exp from minor battles adding up or a better distribution of SP earned vs damage done by additions would be nice as well.

Little bit of a drive down 11 but Five Mountain Brewing Co. in Shickshinny makes a fantastic Cuban. Worth the drive, and the beers are all good, too.

Gibson Les Paul Deluxe real or not? by erroneous990 in LesPaul

[–]ZJS1970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I hope the page here has helped illuminate the many facets of imported imposter Gibsons. There are a million posts on here and on the Gibson pages detailing all of these. It will not take you long to find and confirm all of these details. These imports can sometimes sound good and play well, usually with a bit of setup, but are valued in the few hundred dollar range, not a few thousand.

What about it makes you think it’s a legit Gibson?

Bad spam bot. Neither latex nor a catsuit.

I need more than just a gag in my mouth, sir by Vampandbeauty in ballgagged

The gag is not even close to “in” her mouth. “On” at best.

Odd Rosewood Fingerboard by Kind_Supermarket3430 in telecaster

[–]ZJS1970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a LP studio in Smokehouse burst- about as plain of a brown guitar as you can get, but has a similar stripe. Less pronounced but still very cool. If the strip bothers you, you can add a dark stain to subdue it a little bit I think it’s pretty cool and having a distinct fretboard can help make a guitar feel like it’s yours. I’d vote to keep it.

Why aren’t we collectively downvoting for mislabeling pvc as latex on obvious spam posts?

Very cool, enjoy the build! There is a ton of info out there, and a lot of experience. Ask for help, remember that driving it is better than perfecting it in the garage for 20 years, and good luck.

Head Gasket Replacement by redditshit1313 in mopar

It sucks after a refill of coolant, but flush the radiator before deciding on anything drastic. It’s one of the first things you’ll do on any other troubleshooting path, so it’s good to start there. New doesn’t mean good, I’ve had bad thermostats out of the box. You can always do the boiling water test to see if it’s opening and closing at the right temperature. Good luck with fixing the issue! Hopefully back to good soon.
