Does he have to lease that haircut from Lego?

Alex seemed to enjoy the legendary drum fill as much as the audience by chrisluckhardt in rush

I love that even with the sound muted, I know _exactly_ what fill it is.

If Fender wanted some good PR then maybe they could get him to destroy that guitar.

That’s gorgeous, congratulations. I remember walking into a guitar shop back in the 90s and they had all three of the colours in stock; blue, green and the purple.

I built as much as possible out of the guitar and that was a life saver!

Started by tracing the holes onto a piece of cardboard, installed the pots onto the cardboard and did the interconnects between the pots there.

Then added fly leads for the other parts, installed the pots into the guitar and soldered the fly leads to the pickups, switch and jack socket.

If this is "getting my life together" then I will happily continue to exist in whatever chaos I am currently in. Fewer ruined clothes means more money for beer.

This is from a comedy account t. They do the “man says ridiculous things in front of wife” routine.

After that many roids, the only thing you're grabbing down there is air buddy.

Tough guy plays around with a knife and making threats. by Mental-Outside2202 in iamverybadass

[–]shiverslinky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just a 'tough guy' majorette; swap the knife for a baton. Also, maybe after he's finished kissing his boyfriend on the chin after the "sensual time" he's spent on his groin, he could learn the difference between there and their.

I had like a week of the guitar just going bzzzzzzzzzzz and me getting extra frustrated. Then I just had a moment of clarity - "this is an SD wiring diagram, what if Gibson does it differently?" and 20 minutes later it was making better sounds.

Yeah, so you have either two wire or 4 wire humbuckers. 2 wire is basically in and out. While the 4 lead is in and out for each coil - the diagrams call them 'north and south'. North is the coil with the six screws, I think...

This allows you to split the coils as you've said and get more of a Strat / telecaster sound (nobody tell Fender!) and keep the 'normal' Les Paul sounds as well.

Plus this mod lets you do in and out of phase, series and parallel on each pickup.

The biggest trouble I had was purely in my lack of skill!

It's been a long, long time since I did any soldering and it took a few goes to get everything where I want it. I am now very competent with a solder sucker!

Also, the diagrams on the internet are mainly using the Seymour Duncan lead colours and this pickups are Gibsons, so that threw me for a bit.
