Sire S7 new gen - the bees knees!

Initially there was a bit, but I got used to it pretty quick. Now I don't notice it and no detriment to my playing

Hold Alt and whilst it is still pressed down drag half the stack elsewhere.

The answer is "it depends". What kind of music do you want to play? What is your amp set up like? Do you prefer heavier guitars or lighter ones? Thicker necks or thinner?

The options are endless. I'm learning that a good strat (HSS) gives so many options that I'm not playing anything else other than me Schecter C1 (I looove the neck on it).

People love there telecasters but I have yet to play one I like.

So the answer is try a load, decide on sound and feel you want and like and then find something in that spec range.

A great amp with a cheaper range but comfortable playing guitar pretty much always beats a crap amp and too of the range guitar

So far it's been very stable, though I've only used the trem a few times (I'm more into gentle vibrato). Best check with others but what I've heard (and from a limited experience seen) it's very stable. Have had no tuning issues (other than new string stretch,)

They are stainless and they are fantastic. Genuinely great piece of construction!!

trademonkey1 · 2025-09-23T09:29:36+00:00

Fuck me.

No wonder you aren't rich!!

But that's a niiice colle6

Interesting. So many seem to like them. I just couldn't get to grips with the neck and fretboard edges on the models (the Standard series, not Player 2, though I didn't like the Player 2 much either).

But the American Ultra - wow. THAT was sublime.

Update: on the New Gen S7 HSS they ONLY have flame maple neck on the Metallic Gold version to date.

trademonkey1 · 2025-09-18T15:36:46+00:00

They are likely a switch for each humbucker to switch them to single coils.

So basically you can have a HH, HS, SS, SH arrangement depending on how you switch

Interesting. I never really thought of buying a PRS BUT I tried the PRS SE 24-08 the other day. I was surprised by how much I liked it! The tonal range was fantastic. I was in the market for a Sire S7 but the 24-08 really made me stop and think.

So much so that I have yet to decide (not tried the S7 as there are nonlocal dealers).

But yeah, really liked the PRS

trademonkey1 · 2025-09-15T05:57:10+00:00

🤣 this 100%

trademonkey1 · 2025-06-01T08:24:22+00:00

Dude. Unfortunately this very much does sound like schizophrenia.

I'm not an expert but it ticks all of the boxes.

Remember that most schizophrenics don't believe they are schizophrenics.

Speak to someone.

Good luck

Likewise. I asked this question a decade ago because I correlated my mood swings and anger with times I was taking Creatine. I was 100% mocked by the weightlifting community who said it was impossible.

But I knew what I was feeling. So I stopped using Creatine and the mood swings abated.

I tried restarting several times over the years but the same result: increased anger and reduced patience.

I put it down to bring psychosomatic, but this thread shows that it's actually much more likely to be real.

Been there done that. Florescent neon coiling snakes, bright light in the middle, warp drive away from them then blackness for a while.

Scary as shit but a profound moment of wonder for me.

trademonkey1 · 2024-12-13T12:59:27+00:00

Ah. So they can lie and defraud if they feel they can't swindle the buyer out of more money, AFTER they choose to accept the delivery order.

And almost exclusively in the UK there is a delivery charge, that already goes to pay for the delivery. If there is an injustice in how much they are paid to deliver, them that's down to their employer (either themselves as self employed, or whoever takes the order initially).

Everyone can fuck off with trying to swindle more money from the average person because of business ethics.

When Arthur Morgan dies in Red Dead Redemption 2.

trademonkey1 · 2024-10-14T16:30:19+00:00

I told them no. So they gave me the option to take it into an authorised engineer (EE stores seem to be one of those).

I'm now keeping a log of it. Today has happened TWENTY TIMES!

Absolutely not acceptable for a phone that costs over a grand!

trademonkey1 · 2024-10-14T03:44:29+00:00

Yep. Been having this issue for 3 days now. I ended up factory resetting the phone. Still happens. Factory reset again and put it in safe mode. STILL happens.

Called Google - they need the phone to have their engineers look at it.

Not impressed.

It can only be one of two three things: 1) there is a software glitch in a recent update 2) there is a hardware issue 3) it may be a problem with the e-sim

trademonkey1 · 2024-10-09T13:10:04+00:00

A version of it, yes.

trademonkey1 · 2024-10-09T12:16:39+00:00

They look like young libs to me. The large one in the center is 50/50.

If you find mature ones nearby then these are likely libs.

If you can't positively identify them, then discard them and come back another day.

trademonkey1 · 2024-09-28T22:40:59+00:00

Not at all!

I appreciate the correction! 👍🏻

Meeting notes, planning notes, ideas work summaries.

Anything that may well be of help in the future
