  1. I just remembered, Badblueplayer here has a recent SG he was talking about selling, maybe drop him a line.
  2. When you go to clean out your Spam folder and there's an email with the header Dementia Project. No, I am not kidding. P.S. Never did find that pair of socks I'm sure I brought downstairs with me.
  3. My SG Standard is a 2019, the neck is similar to a 60s profile Les Paul or Les Paul Jr. Not super skinny and not really fat, either. My old 2005 SG Classic had a neck on it like a classical guitar but it did sound good. If you can find one of these alpine white with the gold hardware they're just about perfect as far as necks go if you have big hands- not as fat as the 50s ones, fatter than the usual 60s profiles. https://reverb.com/item/4791525-gibson-sg-standard-2017-alpine-white-w-gold-hardware I don't know who adjusted the pick ups on mine but they had the bass side way too high, it sounded awful when I first plugged it in.
  4. You know how they change neck profile on the SGs all the time, my recent Standard has a neck shape more like those older Faded models. My '61 Reissue has a thin, flat neck, it's not my favorite.
  5. A Standard should have a more substantial neck if that's what you're after.
  6. My Visa card will be safe with that one.
  7. When you actually know the answer to why do old men develop bellies. This stuff sucks.
  8. Thanks for posting that, she's really good.
  9. Now the wormy Mr. Waters is saying that his CNN interview was edited in such a way to make him "look like a prick". CNN responded by saying you can see the interview, in its entirety, on Youtube and that nothing was edited in such a way as to make him "look like a prick". https://www.cnn.com/videos/entertainment/2022/08/13/smr-waters-vs-cnn.cnn
  10. The old buzzard rolls off the tongue easier. Mine is Spanish and Costa Rican, her dad was partners with the mafia in NYC, you can imagine what that bunch is like.
  11. They are bad ***, all right.
  12. Maybe he went back, decided to ride a cow across India and that tiger got him while he was eating an infected critter purchased at the local market. I shouldn't say that, I really liked him but never heard back after that one last time when he said he was going back out again after a brief stay back in the USA.
  13. He didn't say anything about herds of wild cows terrorizing the place. He said he was tired but he was only back in the US for a little bit and then he was off again and that was the last I heard. He REALLY hated being a lawyer!
  14. We can expect more of these things. Note to self: pass on the Shrew Shishkabobs next time, Better late than never, I hope. https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/12/china/china-new-virus-disease-animal-spillover-intl-hnk/index.html As an aside, I had a customer who quit his job, sold off his belongings and set out to walk the planet. I heard from him about a year later and he said India was just eerie as he was out in the woods and there were no animal noises at all, they'd eaten everything.
  15. It's a hangover from the last century that'll last at least as long as we do. Instead of sucking it up and dealing with it you leave your motorcycles parked because it's super hot and humid out and take a nap, instead.
  16. With a gig bag, no less. They were $1200 when new.
  17. That was a big flap on the audio sites a little while ago. After t'ousands of posts attacking MoFo, the original poster, subsequent posters, other poster's pets, etc. it seems like the answer is MAYBE they were up to some sort of chicanery, MAYBE they weren't but it seems whatever they did was a bit misleading. I only have one MoFo album, Magical Mystery Tour. It doesn't seem to be anything special that I could tell.
  18. You buy a really nice Stetson homburg and a girl at work asks about your hat. You proudly show it to her, describe a few features and say it's probably from the 1940s and she sweetly says, "Oh, is that where you're from?" A wisenheimer.
  19. You see a photo of Ian Anderson and go NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! All of the old rock stars lost their hair, when did that happen?
  20. I remember when that came out, I was looking at them and going yes, no, yes, no, yes, no... Glad I decided NO.
  21. When you get distracted while getting dressed, find yourself struggling and realise that you're trying to put a pair of underpants on your foot.
  22. Mr. Waters and Seagal are backing the wrong horse. The Russians are engaged in genocide. They is idjits.
  23. I was overthinking it. Not only do you need the Firebird V but you need barbacue sauce on your right hand, hot fudge sundae chocolate on your left hand, that is the key to the illusive Steven Seagal tone. NO vibrato, down strokes only with your thumb. Genius!
  24. I've been practicing all day to nail those same 2 1/2 notes on my Firebird but it's just not happening. Maybe my thumb isn't fat enough? I'll be back tomorrow, I'm off to buy a week's worth of Happy Meals and a bag of Three Muskateers.
