Cool Jam

[koiwoi]

Good to see familiar faces around.

Turn my back on my guitars for a minute and a jam session turns into a "jam" session...

I don't like it at all, but it's free so I won't complain about it. I don't post now as much as I did on the old HC, and judging by how long topics remain on the first page, many others don't either. The site isn't the dysfunctional mess it had become before the change, but it's basically been 'improved to death' with the reincarnation.

like I said though, it's free.

It's quiet, I can get some well deserved sleep.

JB, go ahead and complain, its okay...I've been complaining up the ladder since before we cut over.  Yes, it is admittedly slow, trafficwise...many people were put off by the sudden changeover [we didn't plan it this way...and it shows], and I can't blame them. We still have a long way to go with the conversion, and it is going to take time.  There are a lot of things I don't like...but it is 'working'.

I hope they get it back to the way it used to be .... and give us some decent smilies ... dang, i can't deal with these lame robot things :cry:

[daddymack]

and he's ba-a-a-ack!

It will never be like it was. But they are working on several pages of improvements we requested....including smileys :wave:

Some day i have also this type of one guiter in my room which impress someone..so what i can't tune it..!!!

[koiwoi]

I respect your opinion on this matter. Impressed am I.

Yo Koiwoi. Just noticed in the pic that your bass has what appears to be a string tree on the 3rd string.
Did you install it and if you did, I'd be interested to hear why?
Cheers.

[koiwoi]

Hi - no, that was on the bass when I got it. Sold it a while back, but still have the others.

that is a common feature on  P-Basses...string tree between 3&4, but the one between 1&2 looks aftermarket.

WTF happened here?  I asked for a password reset for my old username, and it never came.  Is the political forum axed?  This was a pretty cool place to pass time when bored at work for me for about ten years...then my company put on the stupid Barracuda thing and HC gets flagged as "entertainment".

It's been recently unblocked...and I come back to this?

[Scrubby]

Yo DMack, look again old mate, it's on the 3rd string i.e. between the 3rd and 4th pegs.

And I've never seen that before. You have links?

[Scrubby]

Actually the only reason I can think of for someone doing that mod is to increase the tension on the nut through the angle.
Maybe the A string was a bit flabby...!?.

ah, Scrubby, you must count the strings the other way; to me that 'added tree' is on the A (I call that the second string), and yes, that looks aftermarket. The previous owner may have been using extra light bass strings?

[hippydj]

not sure if I like it yet or not. took a bit to get in here. first post ...... here goes .......

[Smilin' Bob]

Yo Hippy! Long time no see!

[koiwoi]

It's a Squire Jazz if that helps. Probably from the 80's.

[hippydj]

howdy, Bob!! Took the wrong exit off the Interstate and found myself in the neighborhood. Looks like they are cleaning things up 'round here. Don't recognize the old place!!
