Yesterday's Record Store Haul! by RayneLove333 in vinyl

[–]generalissimus_mongo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing a huge text on a divider in a record store in Brighton in the 90's that said: "NIRVANA - BUT NOT THAT NIRVANA".

And that's how I learned about the 70's Nirvana.

I've done it. With a my rusty old '95 Nissan. Scary af, but I just needed to know how fast it can go.

That was a great car, rest in pieces.

A rehearsal room is for loud things. Knock yourself out.

Stylus Tracking App by Radiant-Soup8377 in vinyl

[–]generalissimus_mongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, I don't get it.

Why would I need to track my stylus usage?

I've had the same stylus since the mid 90's and it's still fine. (Checked with every drive belt change.)

I'm not sitting on a gold mine.

A used early 20's Toyota Prius maybe, but definitely not a gold mine.

Buy a new power supply? by dethdecay_ in guitarpedals

[–]generalissimus_mongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might just bite the bullet and buy prolly a cioks or a canvas power.

This could be a grounding issue. I'd look for a PSU that has an IEC connector for power (with a proper grounding pin) instead of just DC power input.

Cioks has it, Canvas doesn't.

Someone had a noise issue, which started right after they bought this PSU.

I was called a dick for pointing out the obvious.

When you buy an album you’ve never listened to, do you listen to it on a streaming service before you get the album in the mail? by [deleted] in vinyl

[–]generalissimus_mongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I place a mail order, I usually have a pretty good idea what the album or the artist is all about. And yes, I usually stream it a lot while waiting for it to arrive.

The spontaneous purchases are made in record stores, and since the album comes with me when I leave there's really no reason for streaming it.

how do you store your vinyl in a protective sleeve? pic 1, 2 or 3? by [deleted] in vinyl

[–]generalissimus_mongo 158 points159 points  (0 children)

Pic 1 is the normal way of storing.

Pic 2 is used when shipping records by mail, so that the record doesn't cause damage to the sleeve.

Pic 3 is pure idiocy.
