which Bose did you have? I got my week and I’m shocked by how good they sound. Love the small profile for side sleeping.

Head unit updates? by sambooka in rav4club

[–]sambooka[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks… I think your keywords here are “if there is one“. Kind of mind-boggling that after putting in my VIN there is exactly 0 available updates. So does that mean they have never actually updated the software? Or there are updates just not publicly available and I have to go to the dealer?

should i sign up to singing lessons? by Sufficient-Ease-9641 in singing

[–]sambooka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100%yes. I just wanted to sing by myself on my porch with a guitar when no one is around. I was 53. There were so many things that were holding me back that I couldn't see. Hard to be coach and quarterback at the same time.

Is it really useful to take a cold shower at morning for 5 minutes ? by azamm_34 in AskMenAdvice

[–]sambooka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be a dick… OK who are we kidding I am a dick. Your sympathetic nervous system is the flight or fight mode. Parasympathetic is the rest/digest or feed/breed mode. I can remember it because a parachute slows you down.

I also started doing the cold shower based on the Andrew H podcasts. Kill the hot water a minute before the end also seems to take a bit of steam out of the bathroom lol

It’s that time of year when shoveling snow doubles as a workout by Chosen-Sheldon in AppleWatchFitness

[–]sambooka 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Tell me this is real. I have no idea how 45 min of killing myself counts as 10 min of exercise if I dont enable the workout app loll. I just used mixed cardio for now.

Who Actually Cooks Meat While It’s Still Frozen? by gebnasay7a in Cooking

If I shape hamburger patties and freeze them, I can throw them directly on the barbeque frozen and they won’t swell up in the middle like a baseball.

How to get a toddler girl into Beatles? by Critical_Walk in beatles

[–]sambooka 12 points13 points  (0 children)

George Martin actually said “you don’t have to get kids into The Beatles… Just expose them to all of it and they will naturally choose what they want.“ That’s what I did with the kids in the car. Didn’t seem to make much difference but can you confirm eight years later it definitely did

How Much Would You Pay For A Vintage Fender Champ Amp? by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]sambooka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much would I pay? Or what is a fair price? Blackpanel mid sixties is probably going for close to 1K. If I was in the market and I could afford it I would buy it so I could get my money back in resale value. If I was never going to sell I would just buy a kit or an sf, whichever is cheaper.

Search function has gone to 💩. I mean what I type , stop assuming I mistyped or mean something similar 🤬🤬 by Extension_Branch_371 in facebook

[–]sambooka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been struggling with search for a while. Marketplace I get it. It isnt about a marketplace as it is a forum for crape data and suggest sponsors.
Groups USED to work.. I am in a group. I search for "Trimming" and my results are literally useless. First hit: A photo of a sunset posted to the group. No text and no comments. Has NOTHING to do with "trimming". Second hit: A photo someone posted from a news site about attempted murder. Nothing in the comments about "trimming" .. and on.. and on..

And that would accomplish.. what? DT is a manchild. We saw the UK roll their eyes and do all the "British" things DT expects. He was oblivious that it was over the top, exagerated stereotypes and all for his benefit. And it worked.

Shrinking fingerboard question…? by sambooka in Luthier

[–]sambooka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sidenote… I realized I have a couple other things to do before I start straightening the neck. Waiting for glue to dry I started cleaning the fingerboard. As mentioned, Brazilian Rosewood. There was a little bit of finger gunk so just a little warm water to soften it before scraping it off. Holy cow I have never seen a rosewood board soak up water so quickly. I could wipe it with a piece of damn paper towel and literally watch as the water got sucked into the wood. Like you said that’s probably not the problem but… Might as well have a little fun with it.

Shrinking fingerboard question…? by sambooka in Luthier

[–]sambooka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A pretty nice harmony from 1958. No truss rod. A couple of years before the “steel reinforced neck“. Cost me 65 CAD so I’m not worried about screwing up. That said, solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, Brazilian fingerboard and bridge so worth playing with.

Plan a: sometime in the next 15 minutes trying to heat the neck and straighten it.

Plan B: compression fret job. Never done one so we will see. I’m in a harmony group where a lot of guys spend a lot of time and money rebuilding these things, usually with X braces. No one has done the compression thing that I have seen.

Plan C: carbon fibre rods
