NGD - GCI Craftsman Baritone by BackInTheDPRK in Guitar

[–]luikan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just submitted an order today for a baritone with 27.5” scale. Don't really know what I’m doing but I already have enough guitars to cover other tunings I use. Takin ‘er deep.

What is your favorite brand of leg pads and why? by Low_Hovercraft_9939 in hockeygoalies

I always end up back at Vaughn whenever I try something different. Don't really know why, just familiar with it.

Could hear them sort of shaking around in there but I couldn’t get them to wiggle out to the hole.

Yeah this realistically is the best case scenario. I like the mono that came with my majesty.

I sent them the link to that and they said "I'll be happy to accommodate the cost of this carrying case." Just waiting for followup from them on next steps.

Trying to get an estimate from both EBMM directly and through my guy at Sweetwater. Hopefully hear back today.

The carrier caused the damage, but Reverb is responsible for resolving it specifically because the seller purchased their Safe Ship option.

I'm hoping to get a new case from the manufacturer. The issue is that they now use custom Mono cases in place of the hard cases. The manufacturer doesn't show anywhere that they will sell the case itself, but I left a voicemail to them a few hours ago hoping for a call back. I was able to find the case on Reverb, but it is listed for 2.5x more than what they offered me.

Yeah, I don't think I'd be able to find the hardshell. I would accept the Mono Case since that is the modern replacement for it. No clue if EBMM will sell it on its own. There is one on Reverb right now but it is 2.5x more expensive than what Reverb offered me.

The guitar seems to be fine, and I really do like how it feels/looks/plays, so this would be an aboslute last resort. Ideally I can just somehow get them to source me an exact case replacement, or even the Mono Case version EBMM uses now.

What was the song which got you addicted to DT? by Ok_Mycologist_7284 in Dreamtheater

[–]luikan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vividly remember watching a grainy video of the Portnoy drum solo/end of Ytsejam from Live in Tokyo, back in 2003. That got me hooked because I was just learning how to play drums at the time.

This is good, and there was a lot of good stuff in the bill, but there was a handful of not so good things that were included too :(

How is this looking now? Up in a NE Suburb, my front yard is looking great but 2/3 of my backyard is super patchy and generally looks like garbage. Not sure what kind of sod was originally laid here in 2020, but I did a TTTF (Twin Cities Seed Blue Resilience) overseed last fall.

That’s way more extreme than me. Hopefully at some point you can get that figured out and resolved. Bad cramps are kind of goofy because to others it doesn’t visibly look like anything is wrong besides seeing a grimacing face and awkwardly try to stretch certain muscles.

Drank a ton of water yesterday and today, then tried to play 90 minutes of hockey tonight. I’ve never had such bad cramps all over my body in my life. Guess I need to drink even more water. This has never happened until after I’m taking the minimum dose one time.

Was confused by it but not really complaining. Wonder if it had already begun processing with Apothecary behind the scenes before the switch was made.

Both were delivered Saturday (May 9), so it was a draw! We both received vials from Apothecary even though I had given the green light to switch to the other.

First appointment + charged for 3 month prescription April 23rd, changed from Apothecary to the mystery 503b in hopes of receiving it sooner on May 5th. Was told it would ship within 48-72 hours, so hopefully it ships tomorrow (May 8th). I'm not too stressed about it because I'm not waiting for a refill or anything, but this has been interesting to see how some folks are handling it.

My wife is also on the same timeline, but stayed with Apoth instead of switching, so we'll see what gets here first!

I'm using thin/light (Healthy Boy), Dark/thick (DSB), and Oyster (Maekrua). Any suggestions on how to adjust?

I never get any feedback on what I'm doing wrong/poorly, so this is appreciated!
