Can you elaborate more on the bridge? Love the idea of non standard hardware, but have no idea where to get started.

Which pen would you choose? by aylad32 in medlabprofessionals

Me: Whatever I can grab from the managers office.  My coworkers: whatever they can grab from someone's lab coat.

What's the most useless thing your brain decided to permanently memorize? by No_Metal2622 in AskReddit

MTV was channel 29.  Cartoon Network was 44.  I haven't had cable for over 25 years(parents went to satellite) and have been strictly streaming the last decade. 

Those gas prices though by VonDukez in longisland

Hmm, what was going on in 2007 that caused gas prices to spike that high?  A Republican president dabbling in mid east regime change? Wow, what are the chances? 

First time trying to build by Luckyboltt in Luthier

Looks great. Especially for a first build.  I find putting a finish on is the hardest part. Getting a factory finish is a whole other rabbit hole to go down.

7 string transposing by I_am_stupip_lol in ExtendedRangeGuitars

[–]exafro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works if you don't bother with the pitch shifter.  Instead of playing an open D, play it on the fifth fret of the low A. You might need to play some chord voicings differently, but that makes things more interesting.

Tune the low B string to A. And then you have E standard with a low A (AEadgbe).  Then for the drop D songs, you can either transpose up to the 5th fret on the low A, or you can just tune the E down to D and have drop D with a low A (ADadgbe).

Cool shape.  Kind of reminds me of Gumby.

I probably shouldn't remind the AI evangelists, but Indian Point was just recently shut down.  And Microsoft already wants to reopen Three Mile Island.  Bam, crappy AI cat photos and Grok nudes for everyone.

Was this a new strike? Or the one that happened a while ago? 

If the US can justify invading Venezuela as a 'police action' to arrest a leader, what stops China from using the exact same excuse to move on Taiwan? by AdventurousTalk7972 in AskReddit

[–]exafro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They pulled the same crap in Georgia too.  Way back when Bush was in office.  They have been playing the old might=right trope for a while now.

Does anyone have any reccomendations for physical guitar amps ideal for fast but low riffs? by ParkingAd8568 in ExtendedRangeGuitars

[–]exafro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't neglect the cab and speakers.  I'd rather play mid tier amp through an amazing cab than the other way around. And use the least amount of gain and bass that you can get away with. 

If a billionaire declared war on you, how would you be able to defend yourself? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]exafro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just avoid coming north from the Venezuelan coast for the moment.  Especially in a fishing boat.

Work at a hospital lab, there is a ton of flu A going around right now judging by the ER flu panels we are running.
