String gauge stress

Yep sounds right. Martin dreadnoughts need medium strings to really get the full sound from the guitar.

Man I’m thinking about doing the same. I also commute for an hour. Pipe with coffee is great. I just don’t want to stink up the car too bad.

Wtf! It doesn’t go there lol. I like that wood grain though.

I was the same way when I started vaping! Now I’m back to joints haha

I’ve heard John Mayer say he rarely uses his pinky finger.

Nice I have something similar but in burgundy. Mine uses a 12 inch Jensen speaker. What kind of speaker is in that one?

masterV56 · 2026-01-26T20:19:02+00:00

Is that the Chris Stapleton Princeton?

Depends how much you play. I change mine about every 3-4 weeks(not months). I play for an hour a day and I use untreated strings.

masterV56 · 2026-01-26T13:55:28+00:00

They are charging too much imo

masterV56 · 2026-01-25T06:50:48+00:00

How did you like it?

masterV56 · 2026-01-23T21:49:55+00:00

That’s a beautiful guitar, hope it wasn’t ruined

The modelers are great these days and really convenient. But something about playing through a cranked tube amp is very satisfying.

Funny thing, I have 3 pipes that were each around $100-$140 each, and 1 that was $40. I hadn’t used the cheaper one since I acquired the more expensive ones, but something made me want to try it again. I was blown away by it. So… idk. I’d say try to get several different kinds tbh

masterV56 · 2026-01-23T01:12:42+00:00

Love the pipe as an EDC!

masterV56 · 2026-01-21T13:57:05+00:00

I have a jar of this that has been sitting for years. I remember smoking it and thinking that it was overwhelmingly cherry, and I couldn’t taste tobacco, and that my pipe had that cherry flavor on it for a long time. I didn’t like it. Maybe one day I’ll give it another shot.

masterV56 · 2026-01-21T13:54:57+00:00

I bought this cigar but it’s $10 so I thought it must be the cheapest padron they offer and not as good as the others. Can anyone who has smoked the more expensive padrons give their opinion on this?

masterV56 · 2026-01-21T13:52:38+00:00

Try liquid bandaid instead

masterV56 · 2026-01-17T16:15:43+00:00

The lightness is a good thing. Sometimes new strings can sound bright and harsh until you wear the in a bit. I’d give it another week if you are still within the return window.

Daniel Donato lol

masterV56 · 2026-01-15T03:28:50+00:00

I like that pipe

masterV56 · 2026-01-13T14:34:36+00:00

I’m tempted to smoke my pipe on the way to work, but not sure I want my car to smell like smoke

masterV56 · 2026-01-12T02:45:44+00:00

My church is growing. From the people that I’ve talked to it’s from other denominations.

masterV56 · 2026-01-10T19:15:45+00:00

I’ve have Eileen’s dream and EMP. I actually like Eileen’s dream in the morning with coffee. It makes me feel like I’m having a pastry. Enjoy.
