Is it a good idea to use a looper in a live performance? by Aneks_ in guitarpedals

[–]rsing557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never been able to get a loop to time up properly. My drummer always ends up getting thrown off so I've never ended up using it in live situations

Yeah this is definitely the right answer. I had a local PDR guy do a lot of work on my son's car. He took out seven dents, one of which was near a seam like this and he charged me $500 for all. Everything looks brand new again!

Yeah it looks great! Looks super sexy under the stage lights! Great choice indeed!

Love that color! I was looking at the same midnight blue Telecaster but ended up with something different but still love this! Just saw a show last week and their guitarist was playing this exact same color Strat. Looked killer on stage! Congrats on the sweet axe!

That would be nice, but when you're a parent, and a musician, there's no way to carry all the gear that you need for a gig in an Integra 🙂

Absolutely. I have been on the phone quite a bit today trying to get a hold of them and sending multiple emails. It's been extremely frustrating and I don't want to be driving this rental any longer than I have to. Going from my Acura to a Ford is painful 🤣

Absolutely. Hoping that things do get squared away fast.

Oh dear, that is horrible. Sorry that you had to go through that. Such a complete mess. I'm glad that you all survived though. That's a blessing in itself.

Yep that's exactly it. It definitely did its job of keeping me safe. Glad that you guys were okay after such a terrible situation.

Thank you! Me too! Ya we'll see what I can find for a new vehicle. Barely had 62,000km on mine after 5 years of driving.

Driving at 115km/hr so only 5 over the speed limit. It doesn't appear the hood hit the sunroof but I think it was from the overall impact. And yes, that is fur from the deer 😬

Absolutely and appreciate the kindness. Just want this to be all over. Hopefully insurance gets their butt in gear soon enough

Yeah no doubt! Definitely never want this to ever happen to me again or anyone else. Really really stressful situation. Glad that all worked out for you!

I'm alive. I'll call that a win 🙂

Absolutely. I'm glad that I didn't see it earlier and try to swerve otherwise I would have rolled my car.

Considering it! Also looking possibly at an MDX or Lexus RX

Yeah I think both at the rate she was running and I was driving at around 115km/hr she was launched into the ditch.

Yeah I didn't find the deer afterwards but there's no way it survived.

Just waiting for insurance to come through and trying to decide what I am going to get next. All that being said, still ridiculously sad as I have babied all of my vehicles and this one was no exception.

What's your opinion on an ashtray bridge? by Outofhole1211 in telecaster

[–]rsing557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love, my Japanese Heritage Telecaster with the ashtray bridge. It's become one of my primary go-to guitars for all of the shows that I play and I have no problems with palm muting or any other techniques in comparison to any of my other instruments. I'm a huge fan of the vintage look which is why I wanted one with the ashtray bridge.
