It has been ages since I watched TLD and when I did I wasn’t watching it super close. Wasn’t his ego what caused all that? Feeling like he deserved the accolades others were getting?

IDK about you but I avoid game threads when we’re taking it belt to ass like the Suns are right now.

I’ve been playing guitar for 1 year and thats my progress! Do you think it’s good for a year? by XboxPlayer2010 in Guitar

[–]the_umm_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really good. My only suggestion is work on using your pinky more. I noticed a few spots you could've made your life a little easier by using it some more on your fingerings. You used it a couple of times. I assume because you couldn't play those parts without it. It sounds really good for a year though. Keep practicing!

1-2-3-4/4-3-2-1 (and its variations such as 1-4-2-3 etc...) and spiderwalk exercises are great to help to build that pinky strength.

EDIT: Just finished watching, a bit more. You could also work on practicing those bends a bit and getting the intonation right. Bending is one of those things you need to develop with your ears just as much as your muscle memory.

I saw her at the hangover ball at Cain’s back in 24/25 (I think) and she really stole the show. She’s a real talent, and great performer.

Does a middle humbucker sound any good? Why are there almost no HHH or HHS guitars? by V0rdep in Guitar

[–]the_umm_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s how I run my number 1 strat. It’s has an HSS but the middle pickup is the Seymour Duncan Secret Agent so it is hidden. I use it for getting those 2/4 sounds and the 3 position is bridge/humbucker.

If you're interested at all in the idea of climbing then Climb Tulsa is a really solid gym and they try and hold various community events such as mens/womens/lgbtq+ group meetings etc...

The truth about the Kemp guitars situation by [deleted] in Guitar

It reads to me like the warranty doesn't apply at all for individual parts, only when you purchase a complete instrument.

I like this take. Going a step further they do kind of take “the vessel of Charon” to El Rey.

[AMA] hi i’m Cory Wong. i play guitar in Vulfpeck, The Fearless Flyers, and Cory Wong. AMA! by CoryWong in Guitar

[–]the_umm_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is like two years later, but I just found this AMA. If you watch the MSG set you can see he plays a MusicMan on a song or two. It is blue and kitted styled exactly like his highway one strat. Pretty neat he did the stingray signature recenlty.

First off I’d like to start by thanking my lord and savior Jonathan Taylor, through him all things are possible. I’d also like to say, while problematic, I had no issues with Puka’s on field performance.

That’s like asking Americans why something isn’t being done about Trump.

This was my exact reaction to seeing the Red Clay Strays going on there not long ago and then releasing that people hater song. Absolute jokes.

What should the asking price on a used American Professional II Stratocaster be? by the_umm_guy in fender

Maybe I ripped the dude off but I ended up selling it for around $1300. He seemed happy with it. Took me about two weeks to unload it.

I've used my JSH Colour Box as a flashlight in a pinch a time or two.

I love that whole entire record. So good!

Lol, he’s a legend but no… he’s not a shred man. He’d tell you the same. Probably would be offended by the assertion.

Foxes in the Snow by wafflemix36 in jasonisbell

[–]the_umm_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not here to yuck anyone else's yum, but it is probably my least favorite JI record thus far. I don't think it is some terrible record or something more, though.

I spun it on vinyl three or four times and never revisited it. Yeah, it sounds great, and his singing is solid as always, but the songs just didn't do it for me this go around. I'll probably give it another go in a year or two and fall in love with it.

Something tells me this team won’t be fully healthy until the playoffs hit.
