That move is called a dead hip. And it was flawless.

I was in section 1 and the real MVP of the day was this 70yr old man that was making out with a nice looking 18 year old chick
Army Brat fucks.
So does Caden MF Sterns. -

noharley, that is one sexy ass Strat.
Chad, I personally prefer dots but that flame is sublime. Gorgeous. Can’t wait to see the finished product. -

Achilles over Hector. Texas over Trojans. Why the hell not?
I’m here for you, Snacks.
Edited to add I’ll have what EtOH is having.

Liquor in the front, encryption in the back?
That’s what she said. Sadly... -
I would like to inquire about this sexy secret society of squirrels.

Sweet...
Yep. That one right there. Retro sexy. -
Sorry I haven’t had time to play this preseason. Really appreciate the effort. Love the old school stuff. Henry James doin’ work.
Can’t believe they kick off Saturday. Holy shit. Almost time boys and girls. Get that beer on ice. \m/- 1

I just got my LPB Bullet. The thing beautiful and the action is perfect but man you weren't kidding about the frets being rough. Woof. I'm gonna have to play the shit out of it to make it more playable cause I don't feel like taking the strings off.
Try the fret dressing technique I posted earlier. If it’s a maple fretboard just cover the board with painter’s tape to isolate the frets and go to town with that steel wool. And cover up those pickups with said tape like I described in the subsequent post.- 1

If I run this into that Magic and dime the amp, will I sound like Neil?
I have that exact stomper. Not quite as pretty as that one but it still works like a champ. -
I’d like a date with that nasty girl at COTA.

I just checked some video -- looks like it was #20 in the film?
Yeah, my bad. #20 is a better number anyway. Just ask Earl. -
Number on the pickguard?
#2 like Mcqueen’s 917K from Le Mans, of course.- 2

Oh, pro tip: cover the pickups with masking tape so the magnets won’t attract any loose steel wool fibers. Those fibers will cause them to corrode. Always wipe down or vacuum the board before applying the oil.

I just don’t like how rosewood gets dry.
I got you. Remove the strings. Use 0000 steel wool to dress the frets and fretboard. Then apply a light oil with said steel wool or a rag if you prefer. Use the oil sparingly and let it hydrate the wood before wiping it off. Personally I prefer mineral oil. Some use lemon oil, linseed oil or even olive oil. There are products out there from Dunlop, Seymour Duncan, Planet Waves, etc... but most are made with a mineral oil base according to the techs I know. I do this once a year for all my dark fretboards.
I think Planet Waves even makes a fret dressing kit if you wanted to go that route. Again, my opinion is that it’s unnecessary. -
Imaging staging that photo shoot unironically.
Art Director: “What’s cooler than a white Bentley with suicide doors?”
Stylist: “A FUCKING TIGER!” -
No ragrets.

Oh, shit, DougO. That may have my name on it. If it was a rosewood fretboard I’d’ve already bought it. What sucks is the blonde and the brunette are both calling my name... I LOVE the black one (yes, I can and have gone back... ), but the blonde is so iconic.
-
Duncan ‘59’s and L’il ‘59’s are some of the most versatile pickups made. I’m with Buzz. That’d be a great choice.

That pic is awesome. Like circa 1968 straight from The Ed Sullivan Show or the Smother’s Brothers.

Yup
Played it last night after letting the strings “stretch” an extra week.
It started out of tune as expected, but stabilized a bit. Still went out of tune after playing for 10 minutes
The nut is properly lubed with graphite, and the tuners aren’t slipping. Pain in the butt.
That said, the second position sounds amazing.
I’ve always used the EVH method to stretch strings:
Starting with 1, hold the string at 15 and pull three or four times ‘til you feel a bit of give. Then move to 12 and repeat. Repeat at the next marker all the way down to 3. Rinse and repeat for 2-6. I think Eddie used to add at least one handle of Jack and a half dozen Marlboros. Pretty much optional.
Take care though. A knockoff Rose can have ridiculously sharp saddles if it’s not meticulously maintained.
Hope this helps.

The “100” helmets for the 100th Anniversary of college football were from 1969. Any Longhorn who dislikes these helmets is a blasphemer.
