  1. For 11s you'd want to widen the slot a little bit. Try putting a little relief in the neck, it sounds like the truss rod is too tight.
  2. I just read this, holy hell. Your entire family is overdue for a mountain of good fortune. Here's hoping they're okay and the invaders can f**k off as they say.
  3. None of the fonts look different, from what I can see, from that old Gibson legacy page. Vintage Richlite and I'd say C- for cosmetics, it wasn't pampered but if it's cheap enough it might be worth getting.
  4. Nothing looks really strange other than it lead a pretty rough life. Plastic bobbins are different and gold plating on this one: http://legacy.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/2016/Custom/Les-Paul-Custom-Axcess-Stopbar.aspx
  5. You can loosen the strings up all the way and see if a crack propogates. I wouldn't keep it no matter what.
  6. A subwoofer really helps round out a system, hope it works out for you.
  7. No guitar, just a bunch of weird memorabilia? https://www.gibson.com/en-US/Gear/Sister-Rosetta-Tharpe Where's my Sister Rosetta Non Fungible Trinket?!?
  8. That would class it up, that white didn't really work on that guitar.
  9. My Reverse Studio is a physically smaller guitar than the Firebird V and VII, I don't know if that's the case with the non-reverse. The case is shorter and narrower as well so it's easy to pick out in a line up.
  10. What a great find, congratulations on that one!
  11. Zigzag, Heal up! Undergoing a week's prep for surgery next week, fooling around with stereo gear, guts are waking me up at 3 in the morning every day. Old age ain't for sissies!
  12. I was hoping you'd come to your senses and buy it.
  13. Good game, Matthew Stafford deserved it. The Magic 8 Ball says Baby No. 5 coming up soon at the Stafford household.
  14. ...and ate her burger in a dark alley way. The End.
  15. I have one of those with P90s, it's a lot of fun to play. Enjoy it!
  16. Yes, thank you. I had a fellow from Sri Lanka recommend a tea called Samahan so I've been drinking 2 cups of that a day. It certainly helps bring up the crap in your lungs from my experience.
  17. No, it's not the flu as the symptoms are quite a bit different: heart, lungs, joints, beady little eyeballs and then hock up globs last on the list. I sold a stereo amplifier, waked fairly rapidly up a ramp and some steps with it and I just had to freeze in place for a few minutes as my heart was going berserk. That's not the flu. Life seems to be work, sleep, play guitar, buy stereo gear, repeat. A yanked tooth shouldn't bleed for long at all, you'd better get with the doctor about that one.
  18. Well that tears it, I'm going to buckle down and learn the intro to Whole Lotta Love if it kills me. Later!
  19. I think it's Claymation although her pants may have finally fallen apart and she was arrested on obscenity charges and hauled away.
  20. At first I thought she had a thumb pick like Johnny Winter used to use but then when she's getting in touch with her inner whammy bar you can see she's gripping a pick. It looks like she hasn't been heard from since 2016 for unknown reasons.
  21. That young girl just demoralized me so much I sold them off and bought a nice leather mask with a smiley face done up in pointy chrome studs and they threw in a matching choke collar.
  22. Would I put it on ? No, it would have to be recorded differently. She has a bunch of Youtube videos and they're all basically the same: incredible guitar playing in the same basic wall of soup. Reading the comments below the videos she disappeared so maybe she'll resurface with better production.
  23. Okay, so I won't sell anything and might buy something. I would like a wine red ES-335 with a trapeze tailpiece. That might make me feel better about how good that young girl is and how bad I am by comparison. And maybe a white Firebird V that doesn't cost $9000 and look like it was dragged behing a pick up truck in a swamp.
  24. I agree, it's hard to listen to due to the terrible mix but can she ever play. Oh, please, everyone knows grumpy old Brahams is where it's at. "If I missed insulting anyone tonight I offer my apologies!"
  25. Isn't that incredible? When I first started watching it I didn't think it was real, nah, it can't be...
