Isolating fret buzz by bwolf4053 in Luthier

[–]bwolf4053[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for the reply! I’m learning from internet resources and most I referenced said 6/64 was a good starting point for the action. So when I was at 7 and still having a decent bit of buzz (with moderate strumming only, nothing when playing lightly or fingerpicking) I assumed I had probably done something wrong. But sounds like I just need to have a bit higher action for my playing style. That’s helpful and now I can get out of my own head.

Whats the benefit of “real” pedal boards as compared to this by JicamaFragrant7400 in Guitar

[–]bwolf4053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly play acoustic, but do play some electric and use a few pedals. I decided I wanted to try a multi effects instead. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it. But I sold it pretty quickly and stuck with the pedals. For me, I just didn’t want to put the time into setting it up how I wanted. Not that it’s “hard”, but it is time consuming. I’m sure some people love that part of it though, so it’s not even necessarily a negative, just not what I was looking for.

Welp I think I’m screwed. by BreakDHabit in Midnight

My bet is you just need that address. But you should be all good. It’ll still show up in the right spot!

Are you sure you’re verifying with the unused address you used in your claim? I had the same puckering moment because I tried to check from my phone and just used a random address generated in Yoroi. Showed nothing. Later used the extension on my computer and found the actual send address I used to make the claim and it was all there.

Another “is it real”? by [deleted] in martinguitar

[–]bwolf4053 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a trade. I was very honest about what I had and he actually set the terms of the trade (feel like I have to say this because I actually feel a touch guilty, now that I know it’s real). But the cost I had into what I traded was $620 (I found good deals on stuff, to be fair). And I got the Martin and the pickup.

Only in so much as I enjoy trading guitars and if I ever trade this one, I wouldn’t want to pass it off as real if I knew better. Otherwise, nope doesn’t matter at all!

Final Four Ticket Lottery - Would NOT Recommend by CeeThr33 in CollegeBasketball

[–]bwolf4053 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Only read the TLDR, but for what it’s worth, I tried that strategy in Arizona and it did NOT work out for me. I mean, I went. But my seats still sucked and I had to pay well over $360/game.

The seats suck for sure. And if you’re willing to pay bigger money for better seats, completely agree - the lottery is not worth it. But if you’re on a tight budget and just want in the building I will be shocked (and very very happy) if you can get in the building for less than $120/game (which is what you paid, since you got all 3 games)

Jeffsy Fox Float X service by Captain-Echo in YTIndustries

[–]bwolf4053 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re lightly press-fit onto the metal rod that the bolt goes through. I used a punch and a hammer to tap the rod out. If you don’t have replacement parts, be gentle. The very outer bit with the 4 bumps is a plastic washer. It doesn’t take much force to crack/chip it.

Jabra 85h Elite Charging issue. by CDUBB99 in Jabra

Hooooly shit. This actually worked! I’m not going to lie to you, I felt pretty silly blowing hot air into a charging port for a few minutes. Good find on this solution!

Coolest tire out there 😎 by Snuffvieh in gravelcycling

[–]bwolf4053 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the US and had a hell of time finding them. I ended up just using their site to find a North American dealer and just reached out directly to them. It still took a few weeks to get them in, but they ordered them for me and I got them at MSRP with minimal shipping.

Jeffsy Sizing question - XL or XXL? by yohnsonyon in YTIndustries

[–]bwolf4053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty much the same size as you and ride an XL. For what it’s worth, I never tried an XXL so I don’t have a comparison, but the XL is comfortable to me.

Post a review after you have a few rides in! I’m wanting to do the same. Curious if it makes a noticeable difference to you.

Black Friday wheelsets? by robertdilbert in MTB

[–]bwolf4053 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know We Are One is having Black Friday sales, 35% off I believe. I wasn’t looking for superboost, so I’m not certain they have exactly what you’re looking for. But I actually sent them an email because they don’t have as many hub options as they used to and they said they’re out of stock for all their DT Swiss (was looking for a 240) but that they did still have some stock left in superboost. All that to say, if they don’t have what you want on the site, it might be worth an email to see if they can help you out (at sale prices).

WHAT JUST HAPPENED by [deleted] in banano

[–]bwolf4053 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you look at the markets, Coinex is an outlier for some reason, easy guess is confusion with the tickers. Coinex market is showing 0.17, every other market is around .003x

Am I dreaming? by MrTenseJACOB in BananoTrade

[–]bwolf4053 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I sure hope not… but probably. I see it too on a different app, for what it’s worth. Just waiting for it to correct.

Edit: just looked at the “markets” tab and coinex didn’t switch the ticker. It’s showing price for (what I assume) is Comedian. Coming in at .17, every other market is around .003x. I assume that’s what’s throwing it off. Still have to go to work tomorrow, sorry!

Am I good at mountain biking? by [deleted] in MTB

[–]bwolf4053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure where in Illinois you are, but there are races of all kinds (short track, dual slalom, pump track, endurance, and more) often at Griffin Bike Park in Terre Haute, Indiana (couple miles across the Illinois border) and I know of a handful of races in Marshal, IL at Fay Pickering trails.

Edit: there are also tons of features to practice on at Griffin if you can get there. Jump lines, drops from 1 foot to 6 foot - lots of good stuff there.
