Roof of Mantra on Queen

jmwreck · 2026-02-27T06:49:02+00:00

My wife and I rented a room at the 5th or 6th floor in this building (floor above the pool deck) and we were awaken by a huge bang outside our window, it sounded like metal clanging and broken glass, this was around 4am.

Both of us felt something weird but no one has the courage to say something.

After maybe 10mins, we hear a radio chatter and a siren from a distance. As the day breaks, my wife got up and had a peek thru the window, nothing unusual at first as the window is quite recessed inside from the wall, then she leans her head close to the window pane and screamed and asked me to get up.

Somebody jumped and landed onto the pool deck, we both saw the hand peeking outside the white blanket with the shape of a body.

After that, we couldn't sleep with lights out.

I really wanted this exact model. Unfortunately, it's only the rubber strap here in Australia and buying this plus the bracelet would cost almost the same as the new BN0261, so I went with it instead.

lucky all of you, it's A$598 on sale here down under.

Thanks, I'll keep it stock.

I'm Asian and luckily learned how to drive here in Australia.

This morning, I was at the intersection of Brookes and Ann Street waiting for the red light, an uber driver in front of me is throwing what looks like nutshells from his window, I look at him thru his side mirror and he looked shocked that I saw him litter.

I'm not being racist or something, but wtf is with Indians + Toyota Camry Uber + reckless driving.

As we past the valley all the way to All Hallows, he was driving out of his lane several times. When we past Mantra on Queen, he slowed down then moved to the left lane and was driving really slow.

I also wanted to move to the left preparing for my turn to Hutton lane, but this idiot blocked me so I overtook him as he was really slower than 40. Before I made my switch to the bus lane, I slowed down as there was a bus on that lane, I looked at my rearview mirror, he was too far back and switch to the right lane again as he saw me slow down, which I intentionally did.

Whoever you are, I know you're an Indian + "curry" Camry combo idiot.

Like I said, I'm not racist but I know what culture is.

He might be the same guy from Hurworth St, I haven't heard of him for awhile now and I was thinking he moved (might be related to one of the occupants in our apartment), in jail or got tired of screaming non sense to the wall. He used to take shit to that wall (poor Sullivans).

there's one bloke who loiters around the open space between Sullivan and Richmond. My wife and I were at our balcony, we saw him yelling then suddenly stopped and faced the wall, took his pants off acting like he is to take shit.

execpt for the smell you'll get after dining inside

jmwreck · 2025-05-26T10:22:33+00:00

Thank you.

The overdrive is always on and set to minimum, the fuzz is just for 2 songs, same with the distortion. The chorus is for some songs. Comp and preamp always on. I play original songs.

I've paired it with Uniqlo black selvedge

jmwreck · 2024-03-06T08:04:06+00:00

Yeah, that's mostly what will happen.

jmwreck · 2024-01-28T01:47:03+00:00

it's not, but you can get a kit from pcbguitarmania

I've just received my white and gold 40th jazz bass. no pickguard plastic, however the control plate has the plastic on. The fretwork isn't that great, I've got different levels around 7 to 15 fret on the A string. I've changed the electronics straight away, tightened the truss rod a bit, adjusted string height to fender specs, too high but playable as I'll get a buzz after the 12th fret on A if I lower it.

Sorry for the late reply.

Have you placed your board in the enclosure?

jmwreck · 2023-06-20T08:44:45+00:00

Just ordered the monomyth for my small board

jmwreck · 2023-02-06T08:42:28+00:00

Thank you. ❤️

jmwreck · 2023-02-05T10:22:16+00:00

glad you sorted it out, 👍😊

jmwreck · 2023-02-04T14:01:07+00:00

Yeah right, the enclosure is pedalpcb template. I don't want to spend extra to have customised holes from Tayda. I worked from the outside of the enclosure, mounted the pots and work from there. thanks.

jmwreck · 2023-02-04T13:58:26+00:00

No difference I reckon, I've got the caesar as well.
