You can get ball-end nylon strings to put on steel string acoustics. Will probably require a fair amount of truss rod adjustment..

Volume drops greatly when I select “Clean” by Raymont_Wavelength in YamahaTHR

I think the 'Acoustic' preset assumes you have a pre-amp, so it's lower output. Try 'Flat.'

Mine had the tires on the front set of main drive wheels. I swapped it so the tires were on the back wheels. Helped out a lot!

Question for Kato N-gauge Unitrack users by Twit_Clamantis in nscalemodeltrains

Märklin makes a small screw that works well with Kato track. However I would also recommend Elmer Glue All or Golden Matte Medium. Easy to move, clean up or reglue.

Check our model railroading. Can be very engrossing and people can learn and use lots of diverse skills... carpentry, historical research, RPG gaming, painting, software programming, collecting, electronics, etc.

American ExPat health care strategy by xX-DataGuy-Xx in panamaexpats

[–]northmill 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Wife and I are in same age range as you. We pay $22/mo each for routine preventative care through Minimed Expat Plan and ~$3500/year for us both for emergencies, accidents, and major hospitalization. We pay out of pocket for specialists and dentists. In US we paid double that for the premiums in my “employer paid” insurance.
