I was going to ask if that was a Tweedy (which I’m sure I’ve asked before). Love that guitar.

I’ve decided that I like monel strings on my dreads. Specifically, I bought a set of Martin Tony Rice retro acoustic strings and then realized they were still on my hd28 and feeling fresh and sounding nice a year later despite heavy play. I feel like every time I pull my j45 out, whatever phosphor bronze strings have gone dead, so i put a set of those Tony Rice strings on it and it has been sitting out getting all the love for a month.

Curious if anyone else has the same growing string drawer problem that I have.

It’s a Tweedy and I love it, as does Chad Jr who of his own accord just learned his first two chords. He has a serious CCR addiction at the moment so that’s an easy place to start. He also lusts after the SG and I’ve advised this one can only be used under adult supervision as it’s pristine. He’s already looking for a players SG.

It has the wider neck that was widely derided in the 2015 era. I’ve come to appreciate it. What I absolutely hate is the vibrato. The G string is always going out of tune. I’ve gotta find a fix for that. Also like other SGs it has a tendency to neck dive. I know I need to add a bag of shot to the electronics cavity, I just haven’t gotten around to it as I don’t play this one out and usually just rest it on my leg sitting down.

Every time Musicians Friend does a stupid deal of the day on D’Addario XL electric 10’s, I buy a box.

I load up all the D’Addario Players Circle reward points into my profile and later buy something off their site using points. But the real plan is to have enough strings stocked up that in retirement I never have to buy strings again. )

I also bought a box of GHS Boomers, which are the stupid deal of the day today, coincidentally.

All of my strings and some other guitar stuff is in a Gregory Alpaca box under the bed in the guest room/turning to music room

I’m interested in those monel strings mentioned above. Think I’ll get some for my next acoustic string change.

I did drive down Monel Road in Dow Plant “A” in a former life. It makes you think.
