The mother of all capos. Tremble in folksy fear, down-tuning ath-holes.

Apologies, meant to post on MarceauSludge, the web’s premier board for miming enthusiasts (this side of KissFAQ).

Dirty Laundry? Just consistent thoul? Weigh in peeeeeoooople:

Are those proportions wrong, or are you getting a mandolin? Fuck that, get two. https://i.ibb.co/w7tsn3s/IMG-0241.jpg I’ve been on a kick since picking up the cheapo Loar on the left. The slightly less cheapo Eastman on the right I can’t put down. Changed the strings on a uke to GDAE so I can take ...

I just saw something on TV while channel surfing. A country artist was singing while playing an acoustic with a capo. He had a tight band. Near the end of his song, it modulated up a half step. While the band played the first note of the modulation, the guy moved his capo up a fret, then fell back ...

This is the one with “Old Glory Robot Insurance” right?

Ace is looking like a slightly hotter Wendy Williams these days.

Ace is crap and he (and/or his melodyned Weekend at Bernie’s corpse via generative AI) told you so.

Back to Mono!

What’s on Ultraphobic?

Or, if we’re sticking with VH1 mom jeans rock, how about that Del Amitri song?

Bought Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Psychocandy” on cassette at a flea market and was initially convinced the tape must have been corroded by mothballs or the like.

. . . Oh, also cool. In an ugly sort of way.

Like the Criss-clit of guitars, if you will.

Never mind the bollocks above. The JM middle position is a thing of beauty. Nothing at all like a quacky Strat 2 or 4 position. Everybody rips out the rhythm circuit (or jams it with an eraser). Yes, it’s fucking stupid, but how much more stupid than marketing dummy neck pickups in EVH branded jacka...

You ignorant slut.

My question: Has anybody had experiences with or know of a brand of good replacement pickups that give a vintage-y medium to low output signal? That's another problem, I'm pretty sure this is a high output pickup, which I've never liked. I don't like having built in gain and fuzz. I like to dirty i...

It really needs to be the 56th point of inspection.

I believe the full name is Keaton KeatonOn. But that might be a call center thing.

Did they really do that? I honestly don't know it you're kidding or not, but it sounds like something they would do.

Not kidding at all. Ask for Keaton.

No one errs on the side of customer service more (nudes notwithstanding). I made a snarky reply to my rep about the quality of the candy in my last order and just received a shipment of fucking Tootsie Rolls.

Honestly, unless you can hold a guitar before buying it, there are no guarantees of quality. I've played fifties Fenders and Gibsons that sucked ass. A name is just lettering. No doubt. All I'm saying is when buying online it becomes more of a gamble and anybody with common sense is either going to...

The only Japanese guitar I’ve ever owned was (is) a Fender Japan Jazzmaster from the early aughts, before FMIC started to reissue the offsets in the States. Fit and finish were shit, and I ended up spending more on the (then brand new) Mastery Bridge than on the guitar itself, just to render it play...

I just bought the little lady an el cheapo Chinese made Hofner Ignition series violin bass. Took a while to source a sunburst one after the post-Get Back nostalgia boom in a pandemic shipping context, but was worth the wait. Per expectations, it was unplayable out of the box and I'm not even sure th...

Kerry Keane, Head of Christie’s Musical Instruments department, and guitarist G.E.

Very brave of him to presumably be boycotting Guitar Center appearances due to mask mandates right now.

Did he sign the pickguard? Maybe get a thin, clear pickguard made, and screw it down over the original! If it's just the pickguard I would look into the same type material used for cell phone screen shields. You could probably get a big sheet of it and cut it to fit. Good call x 2. Beats fucking wi...

Any of y'all clear coated over a signed pickguard before?

I was just gifted a CJ Ramone signed bass and would like to show my sludgeworthy support for scabs the world over by actually playing it.

Gabba Gabba, in advance.

Well, this has been a LEGANDARY thread.
