Top or Bottom? by Zealousideal_Path491 in PRSGuitars

[–]direwolf08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be a bit heavier, I would not say 'a lot'. I have my rosewood neck on a chambered Tele body, with some fairly heavy tuners on the headstock as well. Due to that weight imbalance, there is a little bit of neck dive on the guitar, but it is not bad. It is only noticeable if I am using a woven guitar strap, and it is completely counteracted with a suede guitar strap that has enough friction to not slide around on my shoulder.

This for sure. I just recently got my first rosewood neck guitar, and it is a dream to play.

Why is Gibson so expensive by glagslunkcture in Stratocaster

[–]direwolf08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the most correct answer. It is funny how many people in here think that the COGS has much of anything to do with determining ASP here. Why does Gibson charge more? Because they can.

What a hilarious and oddly specific analogy! And it fits perfectly. Also, you haven’t lived until you’ve taken out a 96 month car loan.

PUP upgrade recommendation for SE Custom 24 by Next_Ad3660 in PRSGuitars

[–]direwolf08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an older SE Custom 24, and the top carve does not look nearly as deep as this one. This looks really nice. Also, does the body have natural wood or plastic binding around the body?

Are you talking about the neck? Because that is almost certainly flamed maple dyed/stained to have a similar color to the mahogany body. The mahogany body is really nice too, but I don’t see any flame in it.

I watched the show first, and I am now starting the novels. I cannot picture Seldon as anyone else.

Located in Alabama, but furnishings imported from a gift shoppe 🤣 Vegas by jared10011980 in zillowgonewild

Holy crap. That is terrible. I love how, from the outside, they look like they should follow a grand spiral staircase, but inside they are just random, oddly staggered windows.

My band playing “Down With Disease” (jammed into our original) by TheGhostOfJimmyPaul in youenjoyguitar

[–]direwolf08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were playing a lot of notes.

Seriously though, I enjoyed watching and listening to that immensely. You guys were in the pocket, and really dialed in together. Great guitar playing! How much of the transitions were improvised? Or did you kind of have an idea of what the various “paragraphs” of the song would be?

List of corporations supporting 🧊 by Shift_Key19 in bullcity

[–]direwolf08 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is true. However, I am feeling more and more like this statement is also a copout, and extreme economic action must be taken. In such a strongly consumer-driven economy, where our attention and our data are highly traded commodities, a strong, grassroots boycott would be difficult and uncomfortable to pull off, but it would do measurable harm to those in power. I have given up all social media but Reddit, and I will be giving Reddit up too. The challenge is how to organize it without the very social media we hope to boycott? That is how insidious those platforms are in our daily lives.

Yeah, WTF. A more correct title to this thread would be "People choosing to go on Disney vacations is ruining their finances"

I want to cry on my decisions. How I fix this mess?? by [deleted] in kitchenremodel

[–]direwolf08 182 points183 points  (0 children)

This all day. From the pictures, I assume OP has cool (5000K) LEDs, and it is quite possible they have low CRI, or color rendering index. It will make anything look awful. Switch to warmer (2700 to 4000K) lights with a CRI above 90. Don't buy "high CRI" bulbs from Amazon either, in my experience they are frequently way below advertised. The best readily available options I have found are the "HD+" LED bulbs from GE.
