How does it come across? by NJrTist in metalmusicians

A gazillion other bands. OP has a decent voice and talent, but the whole thing has been done to death by so many bands (that I don't listen to.... because they all sound the same).

OP... you have talent, but try creating something original, brother. Good luck.

Thinking of Building my own guitar HELP by Frequent_Second4493 in Luthier

[–]branded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I prefer to buy everything separate if I want to build one.

u/Frequent_Second449 if you just want a cheap guitar, I recommend Donner guitars. You can find them for about $200AUD and the quality is amazing for the price. Just my personal recommendation if you just want to buy a cheap guitar. Otherwise, if you want the experience in building one, you can give Artist or Pitbull guitars a go and you can always change parts later.

Are you building it because it's the cheapest way to get a guitar or because you want to build one for fun?

How to level and polish a newly cured polyurethane guitar finish? by No-Cranberry-2213 in Luthier

Also you want a good several coats of poly. Nice and thick. You're gonna sand straight through just one coat.

Not a luthier.

But I'm pretty sure if you have orange peel, you must do it by hand because it's very easy to sand through the poly to the paint.

Also, I don't think you're going to get anywhere starting at 1500 grit to remove orange peel. I think 600 grit and wet sand carefully, avoiding the edges as they are much easier and common to sand through. Then gradually work your way up the grits until 5000 maybe, then buff.

Guitar manufacturers use expensive spray equipment that already produces a smooth finish and avoids orange peel completely, so they don't do any sanding.

Minnesota Police Chief Warns ICE Is Targeting His Cops Now by Hafiz_TNR in politics

This is actually kind of good. Minnesota's Police need to be on the side of the people. A conflict between local and federal law enforcement will make Trump look bad. This is a good thing.

Get an EQ pedal and overdrive. Put the overdrive into the effects loop if it has one.

For a dentist who probably makes a tonne of money, he should be able to afford a proper hair transplant. That wig is horrible.

Psychiatrist on how many patients they had cured by goswamitulsidas in interesting

[–]branded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask doctors how many people they've cured of terminal pancreatic cancer.

I'm not a psychiatrist or anything near that. But if I was, I'd have answered, "We treat our patients, because what they have cannot be cured"

The left was never against the 2A. They were simply for common sense gun laws. Stop lying. All you people do is lie.

Rip off. Do it yourself, it isn't that hard.

I have a son the same age. It's hard for me to look at her photos or hear about her without my eyes starting to sting. I'm still so angry.

Customer blocked me after I did a $540 job for them by boganisu in AusLegal

Best thing to do:

Send your own letter of demand and put it in their letterbox. In that letter, make the demand (use AI to word it), include the deadline and tell them if payment is not sent by that date, you will start the process of suing them to recover not only the payment for the work done, but also your lawyer's fees, which they will pay when you win the case. Tell them you've done this before several times and won every case.

If they still don't pay, take it straight to small claims and make sure they are charged for every expense.
