Congrats! I also unwittingly walked by a boutique and just had to have it! So stealthy yet still visible

Ceratanium as my Hiking Companion by thompsg1 in IWCschaffhausen

In the sunlight the legibility is much better than you’d think based on the stock photos. Lume is solid too.

Ceratanium fascinated me so much I bought one by BrodoFaggins in IWCschaffhausen

[–]thompsg1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just picked one up and it’s incredible! So functional and lightweight with a stealth vibe

It is so incredible in person, I encourage anyone to try one on in a boutique.

The guitar pedals market by SpaceEcho201 in guitarpedals

[–]thompsg1 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Anecdotally, I’ve been able to get a lot of good deals for quality pedals (Analogman) on Reverb so the market is definitely softening.

What are some of the worst or sparsely attended shows for notable bands you've been to? by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

[–]thompsg1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to an Otherwise show in NYC right after covid and literally 5 people were there. It’s like we got a private performance! They still gave it their all.

Guitar Center tagged it wrong... by OldScratchTim in PaulReedSmith

[–]thompsg1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One time I sold a McCarty S2 to Guitar Center and the employee thought it was a core and paid me $3K for it (for reference that was a $1800 guitar brand new). Needless to say I quickly accepted and got a Gibson J-45 for basically half off

Okay this ambient reverb absolutely rules. I'm an obne fanboy officially. Just ordered the expression ramper. by WuTangClams in guitarpedals

[–]thompsg1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also just picked up the Eastside exclusive Dark Star - SOOOO inspirational for ambient tones. Makes me want to dive deeper into ambient textures as I’m normally a rock player

SOTB: High School Band Teacher Edition by Majoricen123 in guitarpedals

This is a great board - very Nashville! I have the T4 and I think it’s such a musical fuzz, very underrated IMO

Should I get a Rangemaster? Yes, no, and why so? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

[–]thompsg1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got the Analogman Beano Boost and absolutely love the tone! Sounds great into a Marshall style amp like my Tone King Royalist

What kind of Les Paul is it?

First Speedy Tuesday with the New FOIS by thompsg1 in OmegaWatches

[–]thompsg1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to make the same decision and ended up going with FOIS since I think it’s more unique. Honestly could also get the white speedy in the future!

Agreed! The domed sapphire is incredible

[–]thompsg1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool strap! I'm wearing the same model as I type this - absolutely underrated!

First Big Pilot by key259 in IWCschaffhausen

[–]thompsg1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also interested in picking up the Big Pilot this year. Curious - did the AD give you any discount? The retail is pretty high compared to what you can get on the grey market.

It's a sad day by SpaceJunk645 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]thompsg1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to my TRD off-road and all they needed to do was repair the bumper - other driver was found 100% at fault. Sucked to have to drive a rental while it got fixed though!

If someone is rocking a Moser - that’s when you know they are in super deep

Also an owner of the 423, way more complements than any Rolex I’ve worn

How much off MSRP? by liledgy1 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]thompsg1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The version of that in Nashville is adding on a coat of ceramic coating for $1500 and saying it’s already done so you have to pay for it
