    Well, if I stole your pun I must be a kleptomaniac who doesn't understand puns.

    I may be puntificating a bit, but really, do I deserve to be punished?  ?

    Isn't punning obsessively enough punishment?

     

     

    That's funny, 'cause the first time YOU posted that pun (see link), I replied that "I" was going to steal it! ?

    I asked myself, but I didn't know why.

    Is it something to do with Lizards?

    I've spent literally months going down all the conspiracy rabbit holes (after I lost everything I had a lot of time to try and find out why).  Each one looked completely bonkers by itself, but most ended up dove-tailing waaaaay too neatly to be coincidence.  I have since found enough proof to satisfy my own doubts for many of them, but I still haven't figured out where that Lizard people rumor started!  That said, I do have a theory, but these threads are bizarre enough without adding this to them.

    I now return you to the distractions that keep us focused away from what's really going on.  What do you guys think of these guitar picks?

    Lovely looking guitar. Gotta love the way sweetwater showcases their guitars for sale. I just wouldn't ever buy a guitar without trying it again. Both my Gibsons I bought were just not my guitar, a songwriter deluxe acoustic and a SG. Great condition, perfectly setup, but ultimately I prefer to play before I pay :). 

    What I thought was most ironic was when I was looking for a new Les Paul a good 15 years ago...  You'd think with that name and branding (and price!) you could expect some quality but, sadly, that was definitely not the case!  I sat in the GC up here and tried about 30 of the LP's they had and almost ALL of them had some kind of (IMHO) major issues like frets that stuck out and cut you, bad setups, tuning heads that weren't aligned straight, etc., etc.  I only found two out of the whole herd that were decent straight off the wall.  (Nope, I didn't buy any of them!)

    As I mentioned above, with Schecter, my success rate was much higher except for the minor fixes with those input jacks.  I ended up with a bass and a baritone which were both awesome:

    There are a lot of very dark spots. I had put a spotlight with the camera but guess what... I forgot to turn it back on after playing around with some ideas.

     

    To be fair, I never saw that since I played the video inside the thread.  All I saw for a description was:

    YouTube can throw up some "interesting" suggestions sometimes. Here's a bit of ... well the title best describes it. On a scale of 1 to 10 it's totally bonkers, but oddly addictive,

     

    Well, I certainly enjoyed it!

    (I wonder if I should try it with the mute off next time??)

    I've never played one but looking at it, it's beautiful.

    If you get it, we all expect a full report.

    No.  This is unacceptable!

    The only prudent action is to buy all of us one so we can provide a group opinion! ?
