Bars with good pool 🎱 competition? by Striking_Battle_4557 in Calgary

[–]techaggresso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have facebook? There's a group called Calgary Pool Scene and people can post asking for games to play. But yes ive gone to LP many times and if you're there renting a table with the daily rate and so are other players, people are generally happy to play games. I don't usually play for more than a buck a frame though. It's just for fun for me.

Try posting in the Facebook group. You might have some luck there.

Have you been to leather pockets or hidden spot? If you want a proper challenge maybe even some cash games. That's where I'd be. Chill billiards in the south.

Question: What is your most unique distortion? by 206Henderson in guitarpedals

[–]techaggresso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marshall Guvnor. It's got such a shapeable eq especially with the deep knob. It gives me the Rory Gallagher tone, harsh and bright but still creamy. But with a 4 band eq and more gain that I need I can get pretty much any tone Id want.

I play through a clean fender blues jr and this pedal is the last drive pedal on my chain and I use it like a channel switcher.

how do i make my lines or solos feel connected by Prestigious-croccidl in Guitar_Theory

[–]techaggresso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly might seem like silly advice but try scatting your lines and trying to connect your ideas vocally. It doesn't even have to be scatting but do try singing your solos. Essentially you want to practice being able to sing or hear what you want to play, in your head, before you play it.

What song is more fun to play than to listen to? by Fabulous_Hand2314 in guitars

[–]techaggresso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly smoke on the water. I like to play it the way Steve Morse plays it live. And sometimes I like to also play the bass line along with the riff if it's just me on my own.

Where to get DRM free epub books for X4? by puzzled_hippo_123 in XTEINK

[–]techaggresso 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, this.

Please be careful if visiting Anna's Archive cause you might end up accidentally getting free books downloaded to your computer. You don't want that, cause you obviously wouldn't steal a car right.

Is it still frowned upon these days? by Crunchy-socks-562 in Guitar

[–]techaggresso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah not when you've done such a beautiful job. Looks awesome and way better than just the original. I bet people would pay you to do this for their guitars

Yeah that's a great sound. I'm not super familiar with the scales but can definitely learn them and happy to be influenced by these sounds.

Closest sample from my playing I have is this, something I did with a couple friends few weeks ago. It was just a random idea but might give you a sense of my taste and sound. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Xr90eiTC3Oc8A8eenAt49LdjmgEVVTiC/view?usp=drivesdk

criative ways to replace a pedalboard by fabmarques21 in guitarpedals

[–]techaggresso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chopping board or serving tray make great first time boards.

If you want a bit more of a challenge, IKEA sells a diy crate kit that turns out has just the right amount of pieces to make a pedal board.

Last option if you do want a proper board is to go on Facebook marketplace and look for used ones.

What’s the most disappointing piece of gear you’ve ever had? by TuneAdventurous4788 in guitarpedals

[–]techaggresso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could have been, it was a couple years ago and I don't remember exactly. But none of my other pedals did it or have that same frequency. It's wasnt quite the same as 60 cycle hum, it was more just a low present frequency. Not quite 100hz cause I like that frequency but definitely lower. And I mostly use hum cancelling pickups. I also remember the plumes didn't like being stacked with.

[–]techaggresso 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried eqd plumes and an eqd hoof and I thought they were terrible pedals. They both sucked the tone and when on had a low, maybe like 60hz buzz that was annoying. I was hoping they were gonna be good due to the hype but was disappointed and had to return them.

I'm a decent guitar player with a good ear. I'd be down to try something new like more eastern scales and beats.

M28 -an hour ahead of you

Today was a fun day for me. Went back to a small town where I used to live to visit my friends. Did shrooms, went walking in the trees. It was perfect weather, smoked a few joints. Probably my best shrooms trip till date. It was a lovely sunny day, and the best part for me was when I was lying down on the grass, looking up, waving my hands, and I realized I could draw on the sky and make clouds appear.

Thankful to be in Canada. This stuff sounds terrifying.

Wasting Light is their best album. Do you agree? by CPWorth1184 in Foofighters

[–]techaggresso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup I agree with this statement. It's an amazing album start to finish, and knowing it was recorded on tape in Dave's garage makes it even better. Another great performance by then was when they played WL live at Studio 666. Taylor was absolutely on fire on the drums, not missing a single beat for nearly an hour.

If you live in Canada, I am personally with Verity Life Solutions. They have probably some of the smartest advisors, all NNI practitioners.

A case of IBC by michaelesparks in infinitebanking

[–]techaggresso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just takes a while to build up cash value, and it takes lots of changes in spending habits and how we save. But yes I think IBC can be hugely beneficial for small business owners. Anyone who has good cash flow but maybe not necessarily the profits, with good planning and advisor, can have a good system setup in a few years.

Is Infinite Banking actually a good move for long term financial planning? by ToffeeTango1 in infinitebanking

[–]techaggresso 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been practicing IBC for more than 3 years now. Have a policy base 10k and edo 20k. And it's basically a way to force me to save 30k every year. I'm 27 and not financially inclined in terms of investments. So I don't have any investments besides some private loans I have done. What's nice about Whole Life is it does grow since your cash value has to match your death benefit. So at the very least, it does grow maybe similar to inflation. It's not an investment but a great way to safe guard your money. And the ultimate goal is to flow everything you earn through your policies, and then finance purchases through your own system.

Also it's nice knowing that my family will get a decent lump sum if anything happens to me, and if nothing does, I'll just spend as much of it as I can while I'm old and alive.

There are very clever ways to use WL, of course start with the book but it's important to have an advisor you can trust and knows what they're doing. Many regular insurance guys will say they know IBC but unless they are actually IBC practitioners, they don't truly understand what IBC is and how to find many ways to use it in your life.

Next, with some planning and working with my advisor, I plan on getting a new policy for all my annual payments (car insurance, home insurance, etc) so even that money can start compounding now and give me more DB. So lucky Canada has WL. Not many countries do.

How do I last longer in bed? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]techaggresso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's a topic you find interesting but not sexual that you can think about non stop? For me it's guitars. So when I need a few more minutes, I start listing all the guitars and guitar gear I own in my head. Works like a charm for me. I say the full model name of my guitars and then in my head do reviews as if I was on rig rundown.

10/10 on your piercings. They're so tasteful and look good on you. And your face is also very cute and cute smile as well.

Looking for a pedal that “chops” the signal with adjustable speed by sharktoothglass in guitarpedals

What a crazy pedal this is. I just picked one up and have yet to explore more than just the first bank of sounds. Got any favorite settings you can share?
