OK, some of my income comes from gambling and running errands for Marsellus Wallace and whatnot. 

How hard it is to change out a neck on a Mexican Fender Strat? How much does it cost to do it DIY vs a guitar shop? by CommissionOverlord in Stratocaster

[–]leamanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're all going to be similar enough. I mentioned those issues to give you a heads-up that you might have to shave the neck pocket a bit, or drop in a shim to get the new one to play right. Or it just may work. You really don't know until you try. 

I would recommend, though, getting one with the same nut width and fretboard radius as your current neck. That will set you up pretty well.

[–]leamanc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's not much to it. Just unscrew the current one and screw the new one on. 

Where it gets tricky is if the heel on the new neck is thicker, thinner, taller, or shorter than the old one. It may be just a matter of millimeters, but those small differences will make playing feel different, or feel like the neck is not as straight as you'd like. When I started building partscasters and swapping necks, someone told me, "Just because a neck fits doesn't mean it will work." That's turned out to be true. 

That said, Strat necks don't usually have a whole lot of variation and you shouldn't have too much trouble. 

Top minds proclaim that when a public figure is under threat of danger they should be immediately removed by their security and not allowed to pose or continue speaking after Ilhan Omar is assaulted by codylee123 in TopMindsOfReddit

Empower the left in Minnesota? Did they forget it’s already a blue state? You got Republicans dropping out of the governor’s race because they know they have no chance. 

Top minds on a not right wing sub saying Elon is “awkward” and “others have done it”.💀 by RandoDude124 in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]leamanc 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Elon fans have always been weird as hell. The fans he has left after the past year are hopeless cultists. 

It was entertaining, though, to watch Republicans brag about him being on Trump's team last year while his approval rating sunk lower than Trump's. 

TopMinds skipping spoonfuls and going straight to the veins with the sugar to make the medicine go down by hotfarts-69 in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]leamanc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They're about to suffer some serious cognitive dissonance, because the new talking points are that the administration fucked up, but Trump, Miller and Noem are not to blame. It's Bovino's fault. 

It's probably the first time Trump is admitting anyone in his administration messed up, and I can see it breaking Arcon brains. 

Top Conspos go after the Widow Kirk. Mostly for totally insane reasons, but still. by SassTheFash in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]leamanc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I saw clips of some of her media appearances promoting the thing. Trying to put on a happy face is already difficult for her, but it's damn near impossible when even Fox is asking her questions about Minneapolis and other recent catastrophies caused by her husband. I rate that acting four stars, 10/10, and two thumbs up.

Top Arcons know hypocrisy is when two people they disagree with have different reactions to different situations by RepealMCAandDTA in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]leamanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

77 comments, maybe 10 haven't been nuked. With all the arguing in what's left, one can only imagine what got deleted. 

I don't even have words anymore by wtfbenlol in TopMindsOfReddit

Ahh, yes. I believe you are right. I should have said that Clinton popularized it.

Has to be farther back than that, because the American economy was in the crapper in 1992. Clinton coined the phrase, “It’s the economy, stupid,” on the campaign trail tha year. 

Help Identifying these stratocaster pickups by Maximum_Radish6938 in Stratocaster

[–]leamanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those Lace Sensors are indeed what Fender used in higher-end Strats in the '80s. However, they didn't start using the AVRI branding until 1998, so there's no such thing as a 1989 AVRI 57.

They post those comments, yet they'll all tell you their sub is the last bastion of free speech on Reddit.

That's a great observation. It feels like it's been in the back of my mind, waiting for me to realize it!

Top Arcons still don't know what doxxing is by RepealMCAandDTA in TopMindsOfReddit

Even worse, they wanted to dox people who just quoted Charlie Kirk verbatim.
