  1. I guess I'm back to getting sad faces on all my posts. Who could be doing that?
  2. The funny thing is it's on an Epi and George is playing a Taylor on it. Nice advertisment. That rivals Martin's D-16 with Croz on it.
  3. I troubleshoot and fix stuff. During my time in the Navy and the Coast Guard I went to tons of schools where I had electrical theory shoved in my head, nowadays I have to go on the internet and look into up or to remember that stuff. I hate doing installation and since most of my time as an electrician was on ships, don't even ask me to bend conduit unless all you want is a 90 in it, and even then I'll probably screw it up.
  4. Probably best that way when making a movie in your pooer.
  5. 440 don't play. I got tagged a time or two by it. 277 and 120 too. 400 hz 115 vac once working on gyro. 440 is deadly enough. The guys that work on HV can earn that money. When parts of you blow off and burn when shocked that's were I draw the line.
  6. Yeah don't f with it if you don't know want your doing. Electricity is not picky. It will kill anyone.
  7. This job is so much better. I haven't been to work in 17 weeks. My boss called me today. I thought damn maybe we're going back or I have to go pee in a cup or something. Nope got a 4 percent raise. I'm the only electrician there that doesn't have his master's license. My 23 years in the service and experience paid off.
  8. When I had my BB King it was pretty bad a-ss. All my guitars now have one huge hole in them. Hope they are not broken.
  9. It has to sound and look good. Look good - Not so much. Like the backwards Flying V. Should have given it to Townshend. He would know what to do with it.
  10. We might get a raccoon or squirrel in the building if we leave our roll up doors opened to long. One of the other electricians in my office is an incessant snacker, so he's always got crumbs on his desk. The field mice always s-hit over on his desk.
  11. I got tickets to see him. It was originally supposed to be in April or May, then postponed to September, now postponed to May 2021. So never.
  12. I wanted to stay for the retirement but it the job was not what I thought it would be. I was a maintenance electrician, and where I worked it was nothing but coal coming in from WV, and then it got loaded on to ships to go overseas. The people other than the operators, keep the coal running on the conveyer belts. Management was a bunch of d-ouches. They claimed they are all about safety, but then they just what the job done no matter what. The whole entire NASA facility that I work at is mostly wind tunnel testing. I think there are over 20 on the facility. We have a model in the wind tunnel I work at right now that is way behind the test schedule. It is a model of a rocket that in about 5 years is supposed to be built and go to Jupiter or Saturn. Lot of smart people collect data. I just fix stuff that breaks. Oh, in case anyone wants to know. In the big hanger on the facility is where in '69 they filmed and faked the moon landing. I actually work with people that believe that. I was also in the Navy and the Coast Guard and sailed all over in many oceans and never when over the edge either.
  13. Rap (and I'll use the next term loosely) Music or Hip Hop, whatever it's called.
  14. Remember in case you forgot, Ringo is a great drummer.
  15. That's funny. Go get a bowl of super sugar O's.
  16. I'm sure I am, but I didn't sit on an airplane an let my girlfriend take the rap for my drugs and watch her get arrested for my drugs, while I sat there. Or trade my rare and valuable pre-war Martin for drugs. I mostly say stuff to annoy you.
  17. Here's my take. F pro athletes. Bunch of overpaid crybabies. LeBron James has a high school diploma and if he wasn't skilled enough to put a ball throught a hoop, he would be dropping fries at Mc D Land. Mom I'm not going to college LeBron didn't. Roll model my a-ss. Nice your team took a few.
  18. I worked for Norfolk Southern right after I got out of the service. After a year and half of being on 3rd shift, I had enough. I'm a contractor for NASA now. I maintain and help operate a NASA wind tunnel. This is gonna be week 17 working from home. I could do this till I retire.
  19. On a LP isn't the body attached to the neck. I've owned 4 LP's, and that is how all of them were, at least on mine. Yours results may vary.
  20. I'm sure that was LSD induced writing. The White Album and Yes - CTTE, I could listen to everyday. FZ -Apostrophe too.
  21. I think I just bought a 12'er set and one other coated 12'er set. I'm gonna try their a few 6 string sets when I'm getting low on 6's.
  22. I just read the original post and it looks like the people that did your setup did that. You've got the right to go grab a brick and throw it through their store window.
