  1. Is that why the neck pickup is not as bright. Good call Rudi.
  2. They had to put it somewhere. They originally tried the back of the guitar but there wasn't an amp with enough watts to amplify it.
  3. My trick is I purposely spell stuff wrong if I don't know how and let spell check correct it. Its why I only have a Liberal Arts degree.
  4. The Guild I had was an '81 I think. Haven't seen a new USA one in ages. The foreign ones I have, and they look and sound cheap.
  5. I do it. My wife scoffed at me. Had a bite, now she does it. Women. I usually just put a little bit on the side, not all over it, so I can just dip a fork full as needed. I loved fresh cracked peppercorns on Mac N Cheese too. Makes it fancy. I put ketchup on hot dogs too. Now my wife does it to. She told me not to tell her brothers she does it. I ratted her out. Women, again. I know I'm a 5 year old. I do mustard, kraut, relish too. Now this is nasty and my 5 year old self did it and I would never do it now - Mayo. I loved it as a kid on dogs.
  6. I smelled them at every Dead show I went to. I loath the smell of patchouli oil.
  7. Get on the Let's Talk Guild forum and guess what your answer would be? You have a D-35, not that a D-28 is a step down, but the main difference between the two are the bracing thicknesses. 28 has 5/8ths and 35 has 1/4. Yes the 35 has the 3 piece back, and neck binding, but do those contribute to tone? Seems the 35 top should vibrate more with thinner bracing.
  8. Do you know how many stinky patchouli smelling hippies could use that for housing?
  9. That is some rich Dead Head's mansion. They had to sell a lot of tie dyed t-shirts to afford that.
  10. I certainly hope you don't have first hand knowledge?
  11. I do think Doves and HB's are sharp looking guitars. I am not a fan of the P/G. I just like a boring old black one. I just don't like to looks of slopes.
  12. I had a Waverly built Guild JF-30. That thing could stop a charging Rhino in its track if smacked in the horn. Built like a tank. Heavy has hell. Maple neck, back and sides. I didn't dig the maple tone. I like Hog and RW. It played great and had killer action.
  13. There is, but like any one of them they want a cut of your cake. Reverb was great for a while till they got bought out by Etsy. They fees went up and up and up. To me its about the same flavor, just a different brand.
  14. I listened to an entire live show of his the other day.
  15. He was 77. It was mentioned in the Eagles last tour thread yesterday. I cranked Take It To The Limit last night. https://apnews.com/article/eagles-musician-randy-meisner-obit-b4f9bdabdc17f8e789262fb8023c5f7d
  16. Unless it has cheese on it. Then its Mac N Cheese.
  17. The Italians call Gravy what us 'Mericans call Pasta Sauce. Ever see Goodfellas when Ray Litotta's character is going to go pick up a bunch of Coc, and he tell that kid keep stirring the gravy.
  18. Damn just saw. He Took It To The Limit.
  19. A university funded study must be done to weight in.
  20. Your not gonna find a variable resistor in a passive guitar circuit. There what 10 to 15 bucks. What you think Gibson is paying for a crate of them? It’s like digital stuff in chips it’s easier to use NAND Gates and make it simulate other gates. Then the program only has to make one gate. Better Faster Cheaper. The dumb stuff I remember.
  21. I guess you would have to tap the ground off the jack’s ground. So how are are the other acoustic/ electric’s doing it then?
  22. Oh I thought this was an expensive Gibson. Carry on.
  23. I don’t ever remember simulating getting underway. We pulled in the mooring lines and off we sailed.
  24. You talking about Langley the city, or the AF Base. Langley AFB is in Hampton, VA next to NASA. Langley the city is by DC, I believe.
  25. I lived in Newport News, VA from 2002 - 2019 (retired form the Coast Guard in 2011). I loath VA. Especially that area. The closer you get to the shipyard by the numbered streets the worse that area is. Richmond has fun stuff to do, but its just another big-er-ish city. Williamsburg has lots of cool historical stuff. Yorktown to, but try to afford to live there.
