  5. ghost_of_fl, I usually buy my Velcro from a fabric/ sewing supply, so I doubt that it is industrial strength. I applied the adhesive-backed stuff I had to the flaps of a pouch in my hockey bag where I keep my supplies (tape, laces, etc,), and found very quickly that every time I opened the pouch, the Velco came off the two sides. In the end, I sewed both ends of each piece to the flaps and the problem was solved. Obviously won't work in a guitar, where a stronger adhesive for the Velcro is required. RBSinTo .
  6. It obviously needs to be welded I’m place. That or nuclear fusion.
  7. I would take a look at your battery connections and see if they’re corroding because once a batteries in there for a long time it gets yucky.
  8. So the US was the only country to ever have slavery? Not by a long shot. I wonder what the Egyptians who built the pyramids for the Pharaoh were paid? Oh, that’s right they were slaves they got nothing. .
  9. It is being reported that the "race baters" are now starting to question Francis Scott Keys legacy as they are bringing up his families ownership of slaves as well as remarks he's made about the inferiority of blacks. It sure didn't take long. How unfortunate that people can't let things be. It wasn't problematic when they originally built the bridge. Now, it's an issue.
  10. Yeah, I'll bet they could create a pedal with a rotary switch that engages the three main designs. From what Fuller says in his interviews, he originally had one germanium diode wired in and going to I believe V-Reference. as opposed to ground. Now he's using two Ge diodes and both go to V-Ref. instead of ground. I'm sure he's thought about it.
  11. Ha@ dem00n. Yeah, I remember him.
  12. If a bad person wants to do something bad, they will find a way, they will not come to a guitar forum, and read a post by a guy from California to find out what steps they need to take.
  13. I think it’s not who you are, but it’s what you post.
  14. I think you can get trinkets at the Gibson Gift Shop with those points!
  15. In the 1960s an LG-0 cost about $20 less than an LG-1. I never owned an LG-0 but did score a 1955-1959 LG1 in the early-1970s for $150 . But given my rather limited income in the 1960s, about the best new guitar I could aspire to was a Harmony Sovereign. The mail order catalog version would set you back around $55. I do still play a Stella but it dates to I assume 1940 as it sports at the least an Oscar Scmidt-made neck which was part of the leftover stock Harmony acquired when they purchased the guitar building end of the Schmidt company in 1939.

  17. And the companion to that model, the John Lennon Revolution Casino. Perhaps that is what the OP is referring to. If it is a poly finished Inspired By, no change should occur to the finish. But you would expect a nitro finish (as on the JL Revolution and JL 1965) to sink in time, which indeed might make the top feel rougher. In any case, I would use Gibson Pump Polish on it. It won't make the top feel too much smoother, but it is an excellent cleaner and polish. Red 333
  18. I was mostly wondering about the adjustable bridge. And the neck. This one has its share of dings … but the price reflected it and I’m ok with that. I think it has a tusq saddle. Wondering what changes bone would bring? anyways I’ll put it through the paces this weekend.
  19. Many think the terrorist already figured it out! Isn't it strange that this is almost the EXACT scenario described in the Obama produced film, "Leave The World Behind"? Even the same bridge!
  20. I actually thought the offending comment was when I said something about my sphincter getting a work out whenever I crossed a bridge from now on! Then, wouldn't you know..... ABC News publishes a story that only 36% of the Bay Area bridges are rated as in "Good Condition"! https://local.newsbreak.com/california-state/3383667284103-how-strong-are-bay-area-bridges-heres-what-abc7-i-team-uncovered?s=dmg_local_email_bucket_4.web2_fromweb
  21. The thread had the current president and how terrorists should attack a bridge and you guys can't figure that out? rct
  22. I haven’t been to your house so I’ll take you at your word you have that.
  23. Wraith, none of those apply to either Murph or me!
