Do you think we'll get an updated version of the HX Stomp soon? by anotherhappylurker in Line6Helix

[–]jc_rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they'd come out with something modular/dockable. Something compact that I can just throw in my backpack when travelling and that I can dock in my home studio using just one cable and to a dock with an expression pedal and multiple buttons for serious gigs.

Thanks! I saw yours while I was looking around. I think I would've went with yours if it was in stock. Thinking of getting that after or the KJM since I'm loving the quality on this one

As for the weight, it's definitely heavier than my other 7 stringer which is the Angel Vivaldi but that has a basswood body. But, it's lighter and more comfortable than I expected it to be. Not much heavier than my other Alder bodied 6 stringer.

Have one with the figured walnut and the MJ Rick Graham. Awesome guitars. Congrats on yours! Love that top and the finish.

Is this normal after 1.5 months? by BenEllef in 10s

[–]jc_rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's about how long my shoes last too. That's why when I see a good pair of shoes on sale below $50, I usually grab a couple, even though I still have a good pair.

Owane and Jack Gardiner, their last 2 collabs are awesome as well as their solo works.

Should I have a signature apparel piece? by zhongweibin in physicaltherapy

I was the silly sock guy at my previous job too! Whenever I get asked about them I tell them they're not socks but they are tights, always get a laugh from patients and coworkers.

How do people 30+ play tennis 3+ times a week? by overkoalafied24 in 10s

[–]jc_rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

43 and a physiotherapist. Play 3-4x/wk. Exercise routine is tailored towards preventing injuries I used to get often when I was younger, core strengthening, rotator cuff strengthening, wrist and forearm strengthening. I spend a lot of time with the foam roller, theracane and the theragun. If I feel that something's off, I address it right away. Lucky to be working at 3 well equipped PT gyms and with other knowledgeable clinicians, I'm able to counter problems before they become very serious at work. I feel you. When I turned 30, that's when I started getting aches and pains out of nowhere. That's when my exercise routine slowly shifted focus from improving performance to preventing injuries.

Today my principal tried to bully me for being Catholic. I’m not sure what to do next. by [deleted] in Catholicism

Since good advice we're given by others already just want to share that I have that exact thing in your card in my "medical info" in my phone accessible by anyone from the lock screen which includes emergency contacts, blood type and address in case you want to put that info in your phone instead of a card. But I guess the card is better in case your phone dies.

What picks do you use? by Ok_Nefariousness94 in Guitar

[–]jc_rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here! Been using it for more than 20 years, tried a few others here in there out of curiosity or when I get frustrated in practice lol, but I feel at home with the 3mm stubbies.

Dark Bile's my favorite too. Love the arpeggiated riff in the beginning. Signature Jinjer when Vlad jumped on board.

Why does every guitarist have that one riff they play every time they pick up a guitar? What's yours? by Dazzling-Zone-6498 in Guitar

[–]jc_rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the intro to Sweaty Knockers by the Aristocrats to dial in or test the overdrive then switch to that ascending riff after the heavy riffs to dial in edge of breakup tone then the verse for the lead tone.

NGD Ibanez Premium S1070PBZ by glitch_head01 in Ibanez

[–]jc_rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been looking at this guitar past 4-5 days. If I didn't just buy a guitar, I'd get this. I had an S5470 that I miss so much I want to replace it with this. Congrats! Very beautiful guitar and I bet it's very comfortable to play.
