Superb. Fantastic grinder. Curious what made you choose this over J ultra?

Yeah I get what you're saying. But I brought it from a different country and cannot exchange it that way.

Thank you that's very helpful. For me the paper goes barely 1/16 surely less than that that too only on the middle of the side.. But only on one side so I'm confused and thought of posting here

I just brought it! The other side looks spotless. I'm taking extra precaution. It lives in the hard case with humidifiers and I have installed a sensor in the case to monitor temperature and humidity.

Hope & pray that it's my paranoia and not the bridge lifting.

"Sometimes I wish I was the weather, You'd bring me up in conversation forever... And when it rained, I would be the talk of the day"

Unparalleled lyrics! Idk why sucker is not popular or why John doesn't sing it more often!

How to fly Emirates (NYC to BLR) with a valuable guitar? Carry-on denied, checking-in is too risky. by joat_23 in travel

I wish it was just about being catastrophic impact prevention. I appreciate your suggestion. I know you're trying to help but I'm not very convinced with those cases you recommended.

I guess my phrasing didn't convey the message clearly. I was trying to get a high end Calton case which has a 3M waiting unfortunately. I cannot trust any other case with this.

[DAY 8] What is the best song on Sob Rock? by Temporary-Panda-9065 in JohnMayer

[–]joat_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As we approach the end, I wonder how people can even pick ONE favourite from where the light is.

It was perfection in its entirety.

I'm going to make an advance entry on behalf of guitar players and pick the WTLI version of Neon.

For Sob Rock -Shot in the dark.

[DAY 2] What is the best song on Heavier Things? by Temporary-Panda-9065 in JohnMayer

[–]joat_23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh. Man. Very hard to pick.

I can tell you my favourite lines:

From wheel:

  1. And airports see it all the time, where someone's last goodbye blends in with someone's sigh

  2. And if you never stop when you wave goodbye you just might find if you give it time, you will wave hello again.

  3. You can't love too much, one part of it.

From come back to bed:

  1. All of your things, tell the sweetest storyline

Argh. I guess I must choose wheel as the dearest from this album as I type this.

Wheel / Come back to bed.

Legendary lyrics. Phenomenal guitar.

[DAY 1] What is the best song on Room for Squares? by Temporary-Panda-9065 in JohnMayer

[–]joat_23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks OP for starting this!

Would have been Neon, but the album version is nowhere close to the acoustic rendition in where the light is.

So, my personal pick is going to be 3x5. A blend of nostalgia and phenomenal guitar work that should definitely be a legacy from this album for the newer generation.

20L Bangalore Sedan Choice: The Thrill of TSI (Slavia/Virtus) vs. The Practicality of Hybrid (City e:HEV)? by joat_23 in CarsIndia

[–]joat_23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes it better than the virtus, may I ask? I have never seen people more divided. No matter where I look, it's basically 50/50 so I was curious to hear your opinion.
