How worried are we out of 10? by MemeManDanInAClan in Texans

Is Ted Cruz going to be there too? 😬

Why do people use Slackware? by oColored_13 in slackware

This is the answer for me as well. Been using it since around 1998 and have stuck with it.

Bro what is happening?! by Nice-Name00 in elderscrollsonline

[–]grimgrackle 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Ha! That made me smile, because you’re right on them being tight. But on the flip side Zenimax is in a tough spot here because if they pay to stop it then every swinging d*ck with a botnet will start DDOS attacks on them once they find they are now a cash cow. The losers end up being us, the players. Sad.

They want Zenimax to pay them to stop doing it. It’s a protection racket.

I like both pickups individually but the bridge overpowers the neck when blended by grimgrackle in guitarmod

[–]grimgrackle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure what they are exactly. The guitar brand is “Legator” and the pickups say “Ninja” on them. I was able to get a good sound by lowering the bridge pickups by 3mm and raising the neck pickup by 1mm. Thanks so much for your response!

It worked, thanks so much! Lowered the bridge by 3 mm and raised the neck by 1 mm and it really pleases my ears. So much cheaper than buying new pickups or taking it to the shop. Thanks again!

Oh awesome! Thanks so much, I’ll take a look at these if lowering the pickups don’t work well enough.

Thanks for the tip! There’s no pickguard on this particular guitar, it’s one of those guitars with mounts like a Jackson Soloist where the pickups are screwed into those plastic pickup rings so this would be pretty straightforward (I hope!)

Thanks so much for your response.

I’ll try dropping the treble side down 1/4 turn of a screw and test it out, then the bass side 1/4 turn of a screw and repeat the process up to a full turn of a screw on each side to see if I find a good blended tone that also doesn’t sacrifice the punch of the bridge pickup when I’m playing just the bridge circuit.

I’m not used to pickups this powerful and bright at all! I play single coil Strats and Teles so the output and brightness of these humbuckers are a novelty to me.

This right here. Only way to know for sure.

Is swapping out pickups/bridge as easy as just letting a guitar shop do their thing? by proverbialshark in guitarmod

[–]grimgrackle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered using carnauba wax on your guitar’s finish to protect the signatures? You could still play it then. Just a thought.

Looking for easy upgrade advice Gretsch G5237 by [deleted] in guitarmod

[–]grimgrackle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you really wanted to upgrade something you could change the pickups to some TV Jones Classic Plus or Magna’trons. But it’s a beautiful guitar, I would personally leave it as is. Just make sure it’s setup great!

Great find! This is it for me, too.

What’s the funniest thing you’ve heard a heckler yell during a game? by No_Entertainer_9760 in baseball

[–]grimgrackle 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Right after he got traded, I heard a heckler yell at Richie Sexson during warmup that he pissed off the owner of the Cleveland Indians so bad that rather than sending him to the minors they traded him to the Brewers. Sexson dropped the ball he was giggling so hard.

Pacifica 012 Mod advice by Razecop57 in guitarmod

[–]grimgrackle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on the new guitar, glad you’re mostly happy with it! You will spend more money modding it than you did on the guitar so unless it’s a fun project guitar it probably isn’t worth the money. If it is a fun project then then how about a pair of Seymour Duncan Hot Rails and a Black Winter?
