  1. That sucks BL. This guy is in DFW, but generally has a ton of parts if you are tracking anything down to repair it. http://www.4runnerhouse.com Joey owns and runs it and he is great to deal with.
  2. Thank Reagan1K. I registered and started looking at GB sold prices, fees etc. It is going to take awhile to pick through, but the completed item search engine really helps. It looks like my 10mm/.45 ammo may be worth more that the Glocks/Sigs/H&K's that goes with it.... breaking up ammo and magazines may be better than the package deal I was thinking with everything initially. Things have certainly changed while I have been out of the loop when you used to just throw in a box or 2 of ammo with the sale. Not to turn this into a sale post, but if any Surly DFW regulars are looking for a murder/felony free FTF, PM me. Would want to sell the guns with or before clearing out the ammo. I can list out what I have, but don't want to hijack this thread.
  3. Looking for a little help with determining firearm pricing and the best place to list/sell. Long story short: was super into collecting for a while, have been totally out of the game for a while other than range time to keep up my personal proficiency. I have several items I just need to clear out and put the funds to better use. It's all modern no vintage stuff. Gunbroker? I am open to suggestions that don't involve me getting murdered in a parking lot.
  4. The plaque for the alternates is down in the ladies room.
  5. https://www.musiciansfriend.com/stupid $299.99 today
  6. Sorry to hear that Sandman. My sincere condolences to you and your family.
  7. I don't name my basses. However, I did get word that they named me. Stone Hands.... Those fuckers.
  8. NAMM starting to crank out the new models for 2021. Never good for my wallet.
  9. Actually, he is going to Alamo, TX in the RGV to celebrate his wall. He is not going to "The Alamo" in San Antonio. However, given the whole Four Seasons mix up, who knows....
  10. That looks great AUTF! I am definitely on team Fender pastels. Regarding the belly cut, I thought all you guys just played like this to avoid any issues.
  11. I know nothing any of us say will help ease your suffering, but I am so sorry. It's absolutely terrible. Prayers to your entire family.
  12. Are you driving or flying? If flying, the best advice we ever received for Spring Break Skiing is Jackson Hole. Everyone driving sticks to Colorado/Utah/NM and they are stuffed with people. Jackson was not crowded at SB in any way. The instructors are incredible. No one in our family had skied before, but by the end of the second day they had us on some easy blues and feeling pretty good about it. Everyone goes to Jackson for the big stuff (Corbet's etc) up top, so the greens and blues were wide open and really fun. As a novice family, we had a great experience there. We stayed in town, had a ton of restaurants and shops to walk to and then shuttled to the slopes. If you don't want to ski the whole time, we did a snow shoe guided hike in the Tetons and took a snow cat out to Yellowstone for a couple of days to recover from skiing . We had Old Faithful literary to ourselves at the end of the day. Disclaimer: all of my advice is pre-Covid. Fly at your own risk. Get vaccinated. Or put this information to good use in 2022.
  13. If you go the leather route, consider going with natural vegetable tanned leather. It will age so much better over time. In the beginning, it may look pale, but over time it will darken up especially where your hand contacts the guard. Eventually, it will look bad ass. You can condition it and stick it out in the sun in the beginning to get it darker and not so pale at the start.
  14. You answered your own question right here. Go take some for a spin then post pics after purchase.
  15. NowThis?
  16. Replaced it with a 2019 version of the same thing. I wanted to get another manual transmission Taco before Toyota discontinues them forever. Long trips in the '93 had become a bit of a beating.
  17. Sold it this year. Kinda miss it at times.
  18. Holy crap. Heal up soon man!
  19. Four more hours.
  20. Is anyone else having trouble? Pics aren't showing up for me.
  21. It's a big wonderful world out there Mr. Fuck. I drive about 40 minutes to get to Wicks. He is a transplant from Austin, if that helps. For Dallas, I would probably look at Dan McCarthy, but I have no personal experience with him. http://www.dallasguitarrepair.com
  22. Wicks Guitar in FW is my go to guy. I have not used them, but hear great stuff about Lambs as well. They are an authorized repair and service center for Fender/Taylor/Gibson... https://lambsmusic.com
  23. User name checks out.
  24. Wrong again! I hide my crappy guitar playing by playing bass instead.
