How much time do you gain flying east half way around the world? Has to be atleast 6 hours of time travel...
You land when you take off more or less.

That's piss poor time travel. Spend all day to end up at the same time. Is a start I guess.

BIL leaves tunes playing in his garden 24/7. The girls seem to like it!!

In particular if it is classical. :P

Classic rock. It does make you think somebody is in there if you don't know any better.

So after all these years of maintaining my 4runner, I realized I never changed the power steering fluid.

The Seymour Duncan's are a huge improvement, the actual Floyd Rose has a whammy bar that doesn't piss me off, and the sustain rocks.

Playability is improved as well. My tone is tighter, fingerings better, harmonics more natural and less muted and the detail is better across the strings.

Looks like she plays like a raped ape. Just shocked that is the Floyd Rose, as I had not seen a chrome one.

Great snag Sean!!!!

List price as configured is well above $4k. smile.png Definitely a real Rose. Not sure the real Rose is as good as the Schaller though. Mostly in the threads.

I went back and forth on the chrome. Configured nearly exactly this guitar at the Custom Shop...but obviously wouldn't spend that on an axe. Decided the chrome looked the best with the MOP and frets. Black is too boring on the transparent blue body.

All valid points Sean. The most important thing is that this guitar works for you!!!

Walk behind mower is throwing a hissy fit; carb probably needs a rebuild. Damn near 20 years of service with only routine maintenance up til now, gotta love Toro.

My parents bought toro when they first bought their house 30+ yrs ago. I finally bought them a new self start toro because they couldn't pull start anymore. Damn good machine!

That feeling when you buy power steering fluid and realize you need ATF fluid instead.

And yeah, the Jackson is sweet. WAY easier to tap on as well. Didn't realize how much easier Eruption/Hot For Teacher and such would be. I actually get good tone now!

Of course, I need my fingers to speed up as I can't play them to speed yet. sad.png

Saw it on the news tonight here.

Really doesn't make sense to me.

Not sure exactly how it works other than as an additive.

New fad I guess....lol
