A little more into the Phlorescent Leech and Eddie years, probably because I was at the Pauley Pavilion the night they recorded Just Another Band from LA. But the Cheaper than Cheep band was hot! t

These Grover-Mini-Locking-Rotomatics 406 Series 33Tuners Not sure the screw hole lines up exactly. I bought a DGT SE from John Mann and got a set of his MannMade SE USA Locking Tuners They work fine, but the big screw on the top I find distracting. t Back in the day I was not taught the "luthier's knot"; I was taught the first wind goes over the string and, of course, the rest go under. Never had "issues" once the string is stretched...

? I don't think so, much enjoyed Wooks! t

Listening on cans in the office so reluctant to comment on the low end. Doing a little work on the video monitors in the studio or I would take the wav out to studio... As always, much enjoyed the listen. 👍's 👏 t

It’s always “salt to taste”. Certainly not objectionable, but overall it just seems a bit too much to my ears. my nickel98… t

Liked , commented, et cetera over at SoundClick; have you? Great performances Mark. As I noted over at SC, IF I was mixing I might roll back the verb a notch... 👍's 👏 t

There ain’t no place like this place! So, Welcome Back! t

Much enjoyed David. Keep pressing forward. t

As always, first class writing, performance, and production! 👍👏 t

I think Makke put up an all synth tune once before. 👍 👏 t

Luck!

I did NOT develop vertigo as I listened, so am assuming the drummer did just fine. 👍's 👏 t

No, I think this is "modern" 2-way (or not, see below), it uses a hex key and these don't come apart (I think). Its just "stiff". I was able to get some relief in the neck (and then of course, I tightened it back up; I like my neck pretty "flat") So the Double Cut sets up and "plays". The intonation is good up and down the neck. The IPF-300 TSB arrived yesterday: This one the truss rod was "loose", so maybe they aren't "2-way". Tightened it up, and it plays just fine. 6 pounds; amazing. If I was "playing out", this is the guitar I would take. Anything happens to it, who cares; $206.72, lunch money! t

The double cut junior has arrived. Weighs in at 5lb 12 7/8oz. I guess that's the basswood. Quite a bit of back bow in the neck. I've let the truss rod off well over a quarter turn. That's put a "tiny' bit of relief in the neck; capo at the first fret and string held down at the 22nd. I tuned her up a half step, hoping to help her relax a bit; can't tell if this is a "vintage" truss rod or a "modern" two way. When loosening a vintage truss rod, it should get easier to move. This one remained "tight"; hence tuning up. 9's on these? I play 10's so that should help a little. As to the nut, the high E and the B are maybe a little too low, but I got to get the neck "straight"! Boy is it an ugly yellow! stay tuned... t

There’s always that! As I said above “what could possibly go wrong?” I picked up a PRS DGT SE recently. On sale from John Mann, $653. Fit and finish on a par with the PRS “core” (as they refer to USA built now), thought that was a “DEAL”. (btw, been a PRS player since ‘94, I might own one or two more than I need) Anyway, I’ll post pics and review as soon as the IYV’s arrive… t If the nut is a bit high on the neck thru, no worries as long as the spacing is correct, and the E’s are where you want them. Nut files are a bit pricey, but if go slow and careful, it’s not as intimidating as you might think.

@mettelus dam you, curse you! Is this what you wanted to see! I grabbed the double cut tv Junior ($150) and the semi hollow (I think it’s semi hollow) at $223 (includes CA sales tax). what could possibly go wrong? 🙃 t

How many of those are forum members? It would be nice if the community was a little more supportive. I’ve tried to lead by example, I’ve tried cajoling and tried shaming. The limited time I’ve had of late, I don’t review those who post a song and never reciprocate by reviewing others. Seems somewhat “selfish” to me (and folks you can read this as “totally self possessed”, y’all know who you are…). Nick I totally respect that you come back week after week, even though the community is pretty much unresponsive. Rock on! t

Probably not a bad idea! t

Big fan here so what more can I say than Brilliant! t

NO! Not without a paid membership. t

@John Vere this is one of those things you just have to “wear and own”! t

👍's 👏 t

@Nick Blanc just a “heads up”, this is the “Deals” forum, not “Songs”. rock on my brother! t
