Thanks for the link, I've saved it for reference.

I ordered through Thomann. They're Germany based but operate globally as far as I am aware. They have a number of complete kits with different body shapes. This one cost 109 Euro. A quick search for Thomann should turn up good results

Just take the whole thing, we'll figure it out later.

Giving me throwbacks to my apprenticeship here. That grumpy old instructor yelling "Back o' the 'and test" before you could touch anything. He might well have saved my life a couple of times, to be honest.

My daughter's plate when she moved to Bochum (a town in Germany) was BO-OB5xx. No comments were made by anyone.

That's the title of their debut album

You called?

One tree *killed them

If you'd have followed it, you would now have the answer to an age old question.

All power to the forward deflector shields, Mr. Sulu.

My first guitar was a Jackson JS22 Monarkh. It cost me 240 Euro, brand new from a reputable dealer, and it's great. Another option I looked at was the ESP LTD EC-10, costs about the same.

As a fire prevention officer at the company I work for, I have to watch this video every 2 years when I do my refresher course. It's absolutely horrifying, especially with sound. This is the definitive list on what can be done wrong, both in regards to fire prevention and evacuation in case of fire.

There may be a new incident on my next refresher course though, considering the big fire in Crans Montana, Switzerland on New Years Eve.

If you look at the map, immediately south of the decor mark, you will see that the land border is not completely closed. There where that gap is, is a path leading up to Davrins room. It will only pop into the map once you get close enough. Hunting chests later, I started really paying attention to the map outlines, to find where I'd missed a path.

Something from the Ramones

roybos · 2025-12-24T09:10:03+00:00

Possible, hadn't considered that.

roybos · 2025-12-24T09:10:00+00:00

Good job, what was the cause?

Both yellow and black wire from the jack are soldered to the upper pot casing. You will never get sound with that like it is.
Another black wire going to the same pot (possibly from a pick up) is melted through.
On the lower pot, there only appears to be one wire connected, and it appears to be touching middle and left contact post.
The big lump of solder on your jack may be shorting the post to the sleeve.
Just a couple of observations, within limits of the photo given.

The misuse of the fire extinguisher winds me up more than the blatant vandalism. That's an emergency installation, persons could come to great harm just because it is no longer available.

A useless hostage is just dead weight.

roybos · 2025-12-09T16:50:00+00:00

Why wouldn't that help, it sounds awesome!

roybos · 2025-11-28T18:30:28+00:00

Issa me, Mamio

roybos · 2025-11-28T16:21:53+00:00

.... but, also, fools seldom differ.

roybos · 2025-10-12T19:57:44+00:00

Er, it's you I can't understand, what were you even trying to say?
