You never seem to contribute anything to what this forum represents. You just appear to have a boner for Sgt. Pepper. I have nothing more to say. I'm just hasd to ask... 1 hour ago, jvi said: yes Bill, I do play.have for near 50 years, have owned most brands and models. I listen to hours of music a day, play most days.That said a certain persons rude comments do bug me, your support of him is odd but par for the course these days. IMHO, Big Bill is one of the coolest MF'ers on this forum. anyone or anything that's par with him is a good thing ... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rct Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 They are now, yes. I don't know for how long. The name just came back last two years or so. 25 sets under 50 bucks. I'm sure that value won't last. rct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rct Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 For a handful of electrics that get strings fairly regularly I couldn't pass up the bulk price. I don't think I'll be a user past this batch I have right now. They are just ok feeling to me. rct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Pepper Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) I have 11's on all my acoustics except the 12 string it gets 10's.

I have no issues with that. He needs to dress like a fruit loop to get attention and say look at me. He tries to look fabulous, but his music is an absolute joke like 98 percent of the other so called country music out there. Him and Billy Ray Bob Miley Cyrus are the reason we have Covid. They with their terrible song and lame dancing did this to us. you guys support this kind of talk? shame on you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess its 1984 and you are Big Brother telling us what we can say and do and think and post. I guess I'm a Double Plus Bad. He does dress like a Fruit Loop. Case in point here he is as Nicki Minaj for Halloween and his normal day dress. Looks like a Fruit Loop to me. Edited November 19, 2020 by Sgt.

zigzag Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) The Nudie suit always looked like Liberace to me, so yeah, western wear has always looked gay to me ever since. I've never had much use for negative opinions about bands or people for that matter. I've always been a live and let live kinda guy. I've posted here only once in the last six months or so. I check in occasionally mainly to see if this place has changed, and it hasn't. In this thread, there have been at least two rules violations, and it seems the moderator(s) has, again, decided to take a vacation. Ten years ago, the ban-hammer would have fallen for some of these posts. For the most part this place still sucks, but it was my first guitar forum, so there is some sentimental value that draws me back. Like everything these days, people on all sides are outraged by, and overly sensitive to, anything that doesn't fit their own agenda, or anyone who disagrees with them.

I came to the realization a while back that gay and lesbian couples should definitely be allowed to marry and be just a miserable as us straight folks and should pay alimony and child support too. And before you chime back in Canadian that is not a joke or a slight on the gay and lesbian community although you will turn it into such. So save you f-in response stalker.

This outfit is not as sweet at Nas X's. I've read post from the old legends that this forum used to be the Wild West? This is the guy Keef Richards says he was scared to take drugs with. I saw that suit at the Country Music Hall Of Fame. It was in the Austin Outlaw Country Exhibit they had a few years back when me and my wife went. Edited November 19, 2020 by Sgt.
