Members Cripes Posted January 25, 2008 Members Posted January 25, 2008 Looks like that width is becoming preferred and if it sells more dreads, why not? I'm sure this has been discussed, but how did 1-11/16's ever become the standard in the 1st place? How's things going, JT.
Members JasmineTea Posted January 25, 2008 Author Members Posted January 25, 2008 How's things going, JT.Going good. Cold up here, 16 below last night. Job's ok, no complaints. Just found a good local bagel shop. Gotta have a bagel now and then. Had some work done on my car, tie rod ends, $200. Word is the band will be playing a monthly gig come summer. I think I've found a girl friend... Hav'nt had anything to drink since Christmas, had a good laugh then, and a good time. You?
Members Cripes Posted January 25, 2008 Members Posted January 25, 2008 Back in the saddle and pretty much the same goes for me, complete with the girlfriend I married 23 years ago. I've been on an English Muffin kick lately. Ever used them toasted as a substitute for hamburger buns? Einstein Bagels is the only place around here with decent bagels. Or, at this point I haven't found a good deli. New to the area so I'll get Jeanie working on it. BTW, I didn't sell the Breedlove. I thought I had it sold but it turned out it was a guy looking for something for his kid and I talked him into doing more shopping. Going to record the band? I would really like to hear it. I heard some of your stuff from way back already. You going to work out some new songs?
Members JasmineTea Posted January 25, 2008 Author Members Posted January 25, 2008 No idea what the band will actualy do. Recording rumors abound, talk of heading to some backwater studio and doing a bunch of one-offs sometime in the spring, putting all that together with whatever's been recorded here and there over the last few years and calling it an album. I think I may sell off some recording gear in order to get some better, easier-to-understand recording gear. That may be happening in the spring as well. If it does, I'll get some tracks of my own done and send something to you. I think the Annex would like a track or two as well.
Members Cripes Posted January 25, 2008 Members Posted January 25, 2008 Well, if you're going to get some personal recording gear would you mind taking a crack at collaboration? I have been writing lately and have 4 songs coming along well and a 5th taking shape. Up 'til about 3 weeks ago I hadn't played for the 3 month stretch I was gone. The jonesing does wonders for rekindling the spirit. Freeman has some of my older stuff for the Annex but I'm not sure what's up with Krash and his current capability to upload with his PC issues and all.
Members kwakatak Posted January 25, 2008 Members Posted January 25, 2008 Maybe they're made for guys with big hands? Seriously, I'm guessing that maybe they see more folks trying to do more runs/slurs and the extra space between the strings helps. I always have trouble doing those kind of things on my dread but not so much with my OM that's 1.75" at the nut. OT...Hey, JT glad to hear things are turning around. When are you getting a new PC? :poke: Cripes, glad to hear you didn't unload that Breedlove and got the creative bug instead. Did you get that email w/ attachment that I sent?
Members Cripes Posted January 25, 2008 Members Posted January 25, 2008 Cripes, glad to hear you didn't unload that Breedlove and got the creative bug instead. Did you get that email w/ attachment that I sent? Nope. My old computer crashed and had a very old email address that I could not set up again via this new PC. Don't know, don't care. I'll pm you the new one.

Members JasmineTea Posted January 26, 2008 Author Members Posted January 26, 2008 That's the nut width I prefer but not for 3700 bucks.Knock something like 35-40% off of that, what a good dealer will do. Kwak, no pc in sight, yet. Still going to the community colledge, library, coffee shop. Strange life, it is... Cripes, not sure about any collaboration. But I guess anything's possible. Gotta get a laptop and I'm thinking of a satalite dish that doubles as a beany hat...
