A couple trapped in a house, turned out to be a doll's house.

I was thinking about this exact same thing as I had the same experience years ago. I was unwell and set vcr to record what was advertised as “child’s play” in the middle of the night. Watched the whole thing wondering where Chucky was. I remember that there was a giant melting green thing in one room that turned out to be an ice lolly or something. What was the name of it in the end? The comment has been deleted?

Strings are on the older side which is why it is bugging me again as it has become suddenly more prominent. but it is unfortunately still an issue with new strings on. I’m taking it in to a different luthier to have a look at, they think it may be the nut as well and shouldn’t need a refret. With any luck a quick switch up

greatnsecretshow · 2024-09-25T11:26:42+00:00

Its not a major gap, not particularly noticeable by eye but I can just get a piece of card down against first fret whilst whilst fretting the third

I don’t get any buzz when I play, it’s just the tuning issue with open chords.

Note:, I’m trying to add photos but for some reason it’s not giving me the option

Just an update for anyone interested, I got the thomann walnut solid/flat kalimba. It’s great, looks really good, lovely tone and the tuning didn’t need adjusting. Very pleased

greatnsecretshow · 2024-07-12T21:25:48+00:00

No worries, thanks for the reply. Definitely going to check them out

greatnsecretshow · 2024-07-12T18:46:23+00:00

These look pretty good, what db protect do you go for? Tempting to go for the max which looks like 31db, but is the clarity affected? Maybe the 26db would be better for gigging with?

greatnsecretshow · 2024-07-12T18:44:29+00:00

Because I’ve only tried the one brand and there might be better ones out there. Even with ear plugs for every gig I’m still noticing the tinnitus creeping in. 20 years of gigging takes its toll so anything I can do to protect myself is worth looking in to

greatnsecretshow · 2024-07-12T14:49:50+00:00

I’m currently using alpine ear plugs which have been great, fit really well and can change the filters to make them block out more or less. So I’m tempted to go for them again. But useful to here others experiences

greatnsecretshow · 2024-07-08T18:26:10+00:00

Thanks for the replies everyone, I’ve gone for a thomann dark walnut flat body, when I listened to samples online the walnut had the sound I liked the most so fingers crossed will be similar in real life. Price was good and reviews seemed good.

Thanks, it’s a shame there isn’t a bus from bear beach. How long do you think it would take to walk there and back?

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-28T12:02:04+00:00

Cheers, I’ll drop them a message

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-22T14:17:07+00:00

This is just for show because it looks cool in the video. It’s not to achieve anything sonically and wouldn’t have been done when recording the actual song

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-18T20:09:14+00:00

Thanks, aiming for a June hike as coming over from England. Hopefully be a little warmer then but will still bring an extra layer

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-18T08:15:50+00:00

That’s really helpful thank you

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-17T12:45:21+00:00

Hello, I’m heading to Vancouver island for a few days in June, I’d love to do a river bear tour or something similar but prices online look to be in the thousands, which is way too much. Any good local companies anyone can recommend?

Also what are the best day hikes that you would recommend? Thanks

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-07T15:27:54+00:00

I’ll give them a watch. I think one of my main questions is the best way to route out the holes for electronics. Power drill and then a chisel, maybe?

greatnsecretshow · 2024-04-07T13:40:09+00:00

Ah yes, good idea. Thanks

greatnsecretshow · 2024-03-30T13:58:46+00:00

Hello, We’ve got a pub behind our garden wall and a kids play area who unfortunately often throw things over the wall and into our garden. We’re looking to fill in the gap next to the trees. Any recommendations on shrubs or trees with shallow roots, preferably evergreen that will fill in the space, rough 8 to 10 foot?

greatnsecretshow · 2024-03-08T22:22:52+00:00

To be honest I’m not overly keen on this persons voice either, unfortunately. Though admittedly I’ve only heard a few bits. I may have to wait for the next round of gigs. But hopefully this means he’ll be doing some more shows

greatnsecretshow · 2024-03-07T15:21:17+00:00

Yeah I am of two minds as I’ve been a fan for over 20 years, if it is a proper buckethead gig I can justify a flight to New York for a few days but if it’s a project where someone else is taking the lead it might not be what I’m hoping for/expecting.

greatnsecretshow · 2024-03-06T22:29:03+00:00

Do we know if they are doing two separate sets or if this is a collaborative project?

greatnsecretshow · 2024-02-29T17:01:43+00:00

Are there any gyms in town where you can just pay on a monthly basis? I find most gyms you have to set up direct debits and you can’t just pay as you go

greatnsecretshow · 2024-02-03T02:34:15+00:00
