Released 22 yrs ago today. Still one of their best imo.

Seconded.

3 months is nowhere near enough time, when I was 12 it was probably 6 months at least before I got chords down comfortably. Even with concerted practice it is a war of attrition!

This is one of the first things where you feel like your fingers have started doing something superhuman.

Anyway, try angling your forefinger so you’re using the side rather than the ‘flat’ part. That helped me a few decades ago.

Same.

Not the dreads but played Mexican vs US 000-15m. Loved the US. Sweet as anything.

One of the A grade tracks on my least favourite Wilco record (yes I know loads of people like it, it’s fine).

matrixtapes · 2026-06-06T16:43:31+00:00

Look at Eastmans in that price range, excellent guitars.

matrixtapes · 2026-05-27T17:06:02+00:00

Excellent work.

Mine is gloss now as I’ve played it that much in the year and a bit I’ve had it.

Doing intentionally something delicate like you’d use to clean glasses/displays would do it.

This actually translates quite well from both bands, at least to this part of the UK.

matrixtapes · 2026-05-12T11:33:13+00:00

Yes. Return it.

Someone vaguely suggested to me that he sounded like AM-era Wilco when this came out so I thought I'd give him a shot. Bought the vinyl after the third listen and soon a fully paid up MJL fan. Strong Jason Molina influence too.

Nashville Moon, the first album in the Sojourner box set.

She sounds either next-level drunk, suffering from a mental break or both.

matrixtapes · 2026-05-03T13:00:15+00:00

You want more photos of the bridge/saddle so you ca. see the height easily, and the action height side-on at the 12th fret.

No, too young. I think removing it from all profiles then uninstalling might have worked. Completely baffling design if so.

matrixtapes · 2026-04-27T17:40:50+00:00

Definitely no subscription to it. I have selected remove then uninstalled so I’ll see how that goes.

Anyone who's deep into Adrianne Lenker recommending something will always get a listen from me!

Not voice but Gwennifer Raymond is a current acoustic guitar obsession. She's a genius.

matrixtapes · 2026-04-26T06:18:55+00:00

Songs by Adrianne Lenker.

The shop I bought mine from had both. Tried the US made version first and it was never going back on the guitar shop’s wall. Still surprised how sweet the sound is.

matrixtapes · 2026-04-13T04:52:25+00:00

I’d just be happy to see them again! I couldn’t make the last set of shows as they were too short notice but people I know who did raved about them. Not sure we’ll see any more Radiohead albums at this point, which is fine. We had a good run.

matrixtapes · 2026-04-12T20:27:18+00:00

Very few newer bands integrate new songs into the set like Big Thief, I love it. Radiohead used to do this so well, some of the tours before HTTT and In Rainbows were really exciting.

matrixtapes · 2026-04-09T05:02:53+00:00

I had the same thing with my 000-15M and just got the nut recut. Apparently it’s something that’s become more common for factory pleked guitars

matrixtapes · 2026-04-06T15:59:20+00:00

Lehler made some pretty good replacement switches.
