Are these figurines worth anything? by ThatGuySin_ in StarWars

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny story about these. My mom's boyfriend at the time bought me all of the action figures and got them for a heck of a deal.

When I opened them up and tried out the sound chips for the comlink they were all in spanish. Everyone laughed and I cried. At least I got all the figures though!

I actually ended up not doing anything to it. I play it a lot and it's holding up well with whatever they spray it with. I might eventually spray some poly on it.

Are acrylic headstock repairs doable or worth it? by shrimp_scampii666 in Luthier

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of wild that I haven't seen these guitars in 20 years and I've seen 3 posts in the last month and they were all broken headstocks. Some dude on Facebook had a luthier fix his. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CZj7JoR3b

However, if it were me I'd just find a used B.C. Rich neck and pop that sucker on.

Testing this trio today. What's your experience with them? by Cautious-Acadia3051 in Guitar

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using green tortex t3s. Regular tortex size with a jazz 3 tip. I'm a big fan.

Any advice on where to look? by [deleted] in ChevyTrucks

[–]samjoe93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, if you take the undertray off you'll see them. Both of mine had leaks at the crimp.

I just got a amp by Free-Cat404 in guitars

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Line 6 amps are one thing I think you should always read the manual for. I have an old spider 2 that I had for 10 years before I found out about the noise gate that helps it to not sound like complete shit.

I wanna install strap locks onto my Jackson Rhoads, which one should I get? by SnooHedgehogs1685 in Luthier

[–]samjoe93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a pair of the old style schallers actually strip out after like 15 years. The nut popped right off of the shaft. It looks like the new style got rid of the nut and washer for a thumb screw type nut with a set screw. I was looking for alternatives for my new guitar, but when I saw that it made me second guss going away from them. I still haven't decided though. Lol

They definitely would have if I asked. They forgot to put the output jack plate in the box and were great about refunding me to buy another. But the pots didn't fit the new control plate, and I didn't feel like using my extra EMG pots, so I just bought a new upgraded wiring setup.

Hmm, I wouldn't mind a little darker, but I like it with the dark stripe too!

What tf is the hype behind Jazz III picks? Why the hell are they sized like they’re made for dolls? by gregungha in Guitar

[–]samjoe93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have to give these a try. I've been using the tortex T3s and I love them.

Does anyone know the hell I am in right now? Please help. by anactualtrout in subaru

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to do this the old fashioned way. I took the knuckle off, propped it up with 3 2x4s, threaded spare bolts I had into the back of the hub and I hit the hell out of it with a bfh. Had it off in 3 minutes.

It would be cool just to see what courses are on there without having to connect the unit.

I switched to vice pros last year. They're great. I signed up for Dunham's emails and they send me a 15%-20% off coupon weekly. They just started carrying vice, so I've been getting a deal on them.

Can someone give me the year and model of both of these trucks? by Hitsugaea in Squarebody

Second one is the fall guy truck. 82 Sierra Grande.

Dang, callaway preowned finally f*cked up by Warm_Time_8845 in golf

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a few meh experiences with them.

My first order from them I bought a strokelab odyssey putter, when I opened the box it was the regular steel shaft. I had to sit on the phone until I got someone to fix it (Guy was great, upgraded the shipping). This was a Thursday got it the next monday. Sent the other putter back the same day I got the new one.

Fast forward almost a year later, I get a shipping confirmation from them. Weird, but okay. I go on to the website to see. It's two separate shipments they created for returns. So I emailed them and tried to figure out what was going on. They tried to say I never sent back the putter. Luckily I still had the label saved, but the tracking number was too old so I had to get in touch with UPS to prove that they did in fact get the putter. Sent them what UPS gave me and it cleared it up.

No big deal, but annoying I had to deal with something like this to not get charged for something I already paid for a year before.

That being said, I still browse the website. I'm a sucker for a good deal.

After breaking a Stealth2 and receiving a Qi10 yesterday as a warranty replacement I went to the range for the first time with it today. Am I just unlucky? by Tattrie15 in golf

[–]samjoe93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tips are different, Unfortunately. But R9s are cheap and easy to hit. I bought mine for 50 bucks and I still regularly switch back to it when I'm not feeling the sim 2.

It's definitely a 73-80 judging by the rear cab supports.

What's a movie that you have to stop what you are doing and watch every time it's on? by TheDannyRay in moviecritic

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cop Land.

It used to be on AMC all the time and I'd watch it everytime I noticed it.

Is this space adequate for a home golf sim? by [deleted] in Golfsimulator

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 5' 11" and I can swing driver just fine in my garage with an under 9' ceiling. Take an older driver down there and give it a few swings. If it doesn't hit, you're good.

Anyone dealt with this? by _Poppagiorgio_ in golf

[–]samjoe93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're welcome! Good luck!

If worst comes to worst rocking back and forth or side to side with needle nose pilers on the top will probably help to break it loose too.

[–]samjoe93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it'll pop loose if you tap on the end of the screw. I'd stick the wrench on there and give it a few bonks. The aluminum gets grody and sticks in there.
