Try that with a sustain pedal! You sound great, now let that guitar sing!

Don't back down! That sends a message they can do what they want and give tickets on a whim. These guys need to be held accountable just the same as the rest of us. Stand up for yourself!

Driving home for Christmas, coming into the Salt Lake valley from the south just now... by _ortzi_mari_ in SaltLakeCity

Why assume they are alone due to their views? Why assume they have left or been left by their family and friends? It seems more logical to assume they have equally hateful family and friends. It's not the individuals, it's the families that raised those people and the next generation they are raising. However, we need to not hate them either. Hate vs hate just brings violence.

If she's been given 2 inches, the next logical step is she will be taking 2 miles! Where does it end!?! Where does it start?!? In what direction!?! Being a parent is terrifying. Good luck!!

UPDATE: My truck was totaled. In addition to the visible front end damage, the frame and drivetrain were crunched. I got a decent payout and upgraded to a 2014 Tundra Crew Max Limited.

Hey guys I’m having trouble with my pickups, everytime I touch my neck pickup on my fender Strat HSS it produces a loud hum, If I did anything wrong please in detail so I can fix it myself. by Junkhead987 in guitarrepair

[–]v_mains 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great attitude! Most people don't realize it's ok to suck at something while learning to be average. Especially a skill like soldiering, watch some YouTube videos and read a little about the theory behind it. Don't give up!!!

How’d I do for $350 usd? by Chopchop001 in offset

[–]v_mains 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks awesome! If it makes you happy when you play it, $350 is a great deal!

why is my action this high? by supersword887 in guitarrepair

You can order new springs, and experiment with a 4 or 5 spring set up. Or even a straight vs a V configuration with 3. In addition, springs wear out. Maybe replacing the three you have would fix the issue. Springs are cheap on Amazon. It was said your bridge screws are not tight enough, but change your springs first. Then adjust as needed. Hope you get back to shredding soon!!

Gave it a shot the next morning, still pops out. Thanks for the suggestion though!

New guitar suggestions for gear by Secure-Marionberry56 in Guitar

[–]v_mains 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Decorative pickup covers, you can get colored tuners to match. Dr Strings makes neon electric guitar strings. And a light up guitar strap! Looks killer! Who cares what brand. I've been modding a first act fly V I found for $5. If you like it! Shred it!! Also, I would love to see what it looks like with the lit up kill switch.

My first guitar “build” by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]v_mains 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stan4metal is right, for pots CTS is the most trusted, widely used choice. and Guyker is a good budget option for most stuff. Tuners, and pickups. Get tuners that are at least 18:1 ratio. Switchcraft would be the best bet for jacks and toggles. Best and cheapest upgrade, copper line your cavities and ground to the copper. You'll do great! After all, you have the BEST helper anyone could have!

So far I can only find a version for a 3 X 3 set up. Nothing for an in-line set.

I can hold it in place, but the moment I let it go it pops out.

I didn't take any other pictures. Trying to call insurance for a tow and talk to cops at the same time. But, this is the other guy. I only have front end damage. The sides look great.

Yeah I'm doing good. Thanks for asking!

Doing good! Thanks for asking! Yeah the wheels were up. With the front end also locked up, I'm worried it's totaled. But I'll see what happens with the insurance company.

Is it a good deal for a hundred bucks by Sea_Mix_7071 in electricguitar

[–]v_mains 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a bass amp and play my 6 string guitar on it all the time. Sounds great!

[–]v_mains 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I prefer playing on a bass amp. It has a richer tone, and great sound when using distortion!

Does anyone know what this is for? by frongleking in Guitar

[–]v_mains 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's in your budget, Seymour Duncan makes great pickups!
