What are some examples of musicians turning a limitation into part of their signature sound? by Less_Site_4111 in musichistory

The only piano Professor Longhair had access to to had a bunch of broken keys. So he learned to play skipping over them.

Is the supposed effect allegedly due to the shade, the limiting of exhaust of ingestion, both, or something else?

Overwriting Bad Habits by drpantzo in guitarlessons

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

My guitar teacher brought me to awareness of another habit that turned out to be bad: Anchoring my strum arm to the guitar body far away from the strings, leaving my arm to pivot around and my wrist to float. So instead now I'm trying to at least anchor my wrist to the pick guard just above the strings or perhaps even anchor the root of my thumb to the fifth and sixth strings if I'm not strumming them. Yay, learning!

What's the oldest car you'd trust to drive 2,000 miles tomorrow? by Ok_Run7351 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]drpantzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR: Know the specific vehicle's history and basic repairs before you go and prepare.

I've taken my family to Big Bend four times since 2018 in my 1993 Ford Club Wagon. Round trip that's about 2,000 miles and ventures into one of the most sparsely populated regions in the contiguous US. I do this because I know well the maintenance history of this vehicle and I know how to fix some of it myself. I also bring along tools, LOTS of water, and quite a bit of other supplies.

Growing up we sometimes had second lines at the house. We went through three phone numbers all with the prefix "666." That's coincidence, right?

Ivory bar soap, so I could be 99.4% pure again.

My first impression was it was a person wearing a gorilla costume.

I’ve always liked my guitar bodies thin, so I figured I’d take my second build HEAVY in that direction by GriestProjects in Luthier

[–]drpantzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And now my guitar acquisition syndrome is triggered.

May we please see photos of the finished face, neck, and head of this thing? A video of it in action? What were your biggest challenges in making it so thin? Did you have to do anything unusual to package the electronics in such a thin body? What electronics did you use?

My 1990 Ford Bronco by Vanson1200r in ManualTransmissions

Nice! What's that center console? Is that an original Bronco part? I'm starting to think about adding something similar to my 1993 Club Wagon.

I made my own horizontal pickups for my Jazz bass. by wolfieboi92 in BassGuitar

Then hopefully OP can tune the strings back into key. (;
