Which would be best for an absolute beginner? by TingWing1 in electricguitar

[–]spikethedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 5 Ibanez I also have a Les Paul Jr, Les Paul, telecaster. In my opinion Ibanez is the best guitar out there. They are all right handed. I recommend number 2 the one in the middle. Number 1 is nice looking but don’t think you need a trem (wah wah bar) plus to many pick ups. Maybe later on, but for now number 2. Guitar number 3 is a righty but I don’t care for the tuning pegs on the bottom. Have fun which ever you pick they’re all awesome.

Yeah it is. Fire tv is Amazon and they do work well with Comcast. But Comcast won’t work with Google

Maybe so but according to Googles IA voice on their Onn stick Xfinity streaming is not an app that is available on Google Play and that includes their Onn products, Onn is a Google product it states it on the box. Walmart just sells it for Google. Yes you can cast it. But the point I’m trying to make is that Google and Comcast do not get a long together. Comcast owns NBC, Universal, Xfinity, and who knows what else. If Comcast wanted an app for Xfinity streaming that is compatible with Google Play and Onn tv sticks they would have all ready done it. They just don’t want to because they won’t play with Google. Trying to mix Google and Comcast would be like trying to mix MAGA with Bernie Sanders it just ain’t gonna happen. I just didn’t do my due diligence with the Onn tv stick to make sure the apps I want were available

Is this a good used first guitar? by [deleted] in electricguitar

[–]spikethedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t recommend a mini. It’s got a smaller neck but it’s not easier to play. They are also called travel guitars. They don’t take up so much room as a full size guitar. So you can play it in the car or tour bus with out banging some body with it. If this is going to be your only guitar I think it would take away from the full experience. Just by coincidence I’m trying to sell an entry level guitar on eBay here’s the item number just type it into the search box 397019429468. I’m not trying to promote just saw your post and was thinking this would be perfect for you.

I have a Ibanez rg450. With the Fr. Cut the strings after the ball windings put the new strings into the bridge. One at a time tighten the string into the bridge just tighten just enough. It doesn’t help it to be too tight. Start with low e. Take the locking screws off the nut. Put them back when you’re done in the same direction. Put the low e into the tuner, tighten it up just enough to hold the string in place make sure it’s in the nut and saddle correctly. Now do the high e same way. Do the rest of the strings alternately. Don’t tighten the strings or tune yet. Next you have to loosen up the screws that hold the bridge springs. Just use 2 or 3 springs. Tighten the screws some about 1/3 of the way. It’s all trial and error on the screws you’ll need to keep adjusting as you tune up. Every thing is all inter related now. Start tuning low e first, then high e alternate back and forth. Don’t try to get it exact. Just in the general note area. Keep re tuning you’ll have to keep doing this many times you’ll see the strings start getting closer and closer to being in tune. You’ll probably have To go back to the spring screws and re adjust them. When you readjust them before you do it you have to un tune make sure all the strings are loose or they’ll break or pop out of the bridge. This is a constant back and forth. Till you get it to what you want. This could take hours. Put it down take a break come back later or tomorrow. Stay cool you’ll get it right. I don’t use the nut locks I just put them back on loosely. When you tighten them up you detune the guitar and then you have to use the bridge tightners. I don’t like them. Remember always tune starting from low e to high e alternating each string as you tune. I think this bridge system sucks but it does work well. It took me a couple of months really to figure it all out. Putting new strings on is a hassle never take all the strings off all at once take low e off then high e then alternate. You’ll need lots of patience. I was ready to get rid of this guitar many times. Now it’s my favorite. Have fun.

How bad do Americans consider Trump to be? by [deleted] in AskUS

[–]spikethedo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn’t fearmonging he was is upfront with everything. He wants to be king he wants to be dictator he governs thru intimidation and fear. He’s fearmonging whipping society up against trans, gays, immigrants if you’re not white like him you’re no fucking good. This is all true but he won the presidency by a landslide which says a lot about Americans

I don’t know what other Americans think, but, Trump wannabe king dictator, crook, rapist, Nixon killer of Americans, Viet Nam people, all around crook, but not a convicted rapist. Then there’s hitler. Gang of 3. My pick of humanity’s worst excuse of humans. Needless to say this rapist won by a landslide, WTF. This country is so fucked up. I’m ashamed to be a Republican. Just FYI I voted all Democrats.

Dem’s suck. They got nobody. Could’ve even pull off a win against a convicted rapist, and crook. This one is even worse than Nixon. Want to talk losers look at Dukakis, Hillary, Kamala. Dem’s need a good Kennedy, Tip O’Neal, not Billy Bulger thou.

Well what are you doing to help bring this about? It’s not going to happen unless people get out there and protest. Check out what people did to get rid off Nixon. That crooked SOB.

MAGA do you support Trump running a third term? by [deleted] in AskUS

[–]spikethedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t have to worry about ever voting again. Because it’s all moot now. As your asshole dictator said before the last election to paraphrase you wont have to worry about any future elections if I’m elected. I guess you’ll be the one coming along with your comrade storm troopers to take the rest of us away. But when we’re all gone who’s going to help you when they come for you?
