  1. Seriously, though, I would ask him if there is anything I can do for him...
  2. If I were the hating type, I sure wouldn't waste my time hating John Mayer...
  3. Get a hand job. Oh boy... You want tough hands? Drop out of college and become an electrician and carpenter (or other trades, this is just what I did)... You will have asbestos hands in no time...
  4. My palm is very lightly sitting on the bridge, always ready for muting, but not really anchored... More like a feeler... My pinky hangs down and and lightly feels the guitar, but isn't anchored... It moves with my hand and is relaxed... So, my palm and pinky are like depth finders, not anchors... Years ago, my palm was much more anchored, but over time I learned that it was limiting my fluidity...
  5. I think the Rondo pink is for guys whose ass is available...
  6. 1970-80s Overrated: Neal Schon Underrated: Lindsey Buckingham I agree that Lindsey Buckingham was underrated... However, in the early days of Journey, back when they rocked, so did Neal Schon, and he was underrated... Fast forward to the Journey pop days, and the whole band was overrated, even though they wrote catchy hooks...
  7. Aaahh yes... In the summer of 1981, almost 17, I drove to a music store and bought a $70 POS... It really sucked... In fact, I have a good friend who still has it as kind of a joke... Well, in 1985, I found a barely used Washburn Falcon, made in around 1980... That is still my one and only electric, and I still think it's a great guitar... So, my first good electric guitar has been my only good one to date...
  8. after 7 pages of this thread, i have come to the conclusion that i don't need to be so nitpicky to really give a {censored} what people say, whether a 0 is an O, if it's its or it's, if it's two to too, if it's their they're there, or whether it is I, or it's me...
  9. "i'd like to thank the academy..." just about every freeekin hip hop phrase in existance! "whatever" said in a stuck up valley girl voice... also, most that you guys have already mentioned... but, i really enjoy being on the job and using every single stupid phrase i can, all day long... but, this is just to drive everyone crazy! oh yea... "wuddup dog"
  10. quick note, though... when it comes to stuff, i love getting rid of crap... but my tools and materials will never be downsized... finally my wife realizes that every surface in the house doesn't have to be a place fo hundreds of knick knacks!
  11. well, i currently live in a 1300 sq ft house on a tenth of an acre... i will be downsizing to an 1100 sq ft home i recently purchased... but... it is on 10 acres! all i want now is to convert the 400 sq ft work shop to my studio and build a 1200 sq ft barn! screw downsizing! well, actually i will have a smaller mortgage, and that is the kind of downsizing i'm into... paulski
  12. well, a new guitar and nice tube amp would be cool... a new computer and a nice converter... couple more basic mics... new bass and amp... pretty much would like to set up a decent computer daw for tracking my stuff so i can take the tracks to ustads for improvment!
  13. i commented earlier on the band not sounding like 20 year olds, and held back my mixing comments as i am not an engineer and don't always trust my ear... however, as was mentioned by someone else, i was really impressed with the whole package as i listened through computer speakers... obviously a talented group with a talented producer... by the way, i am learning the engineering aspect of things for my personal projects, so maybe one day i'll have some real comments on the mixing! it's kind of like fine wine... i am no expert, but i seem to like the good ones... paulski
