Make sure you bring your guitar hero

I'm interested, but my time is pretty thin on the weekends. Lots of Pi practices going on at the moment.

Try going 8 guitars with that opening riff, half clean/muted half distorted. Mindblowing!

you have been a part of said enter sandman wankfest? how does that work?

so, what does everyone "jam" on, Darkside?
songlist?

ah.....so, it's a jam of jam band material.

i'll, um...pass. sorry.

Unfortunately, all I know is the opening of Metallica Enter Sandman, so I will pass

I always did enjoy a good jam session while I was in Ames...had some pretty good shit come out of those sessions...it was always strictly original stuff though.

That being said, I've play my Strat twice in the last two years, and I don't think the commute would be worth it...

what year? american standard? reissue?

the jam sounds fun. i'm just being a dickhead.

cool. i have a red mexi-strat from around 98 or so.

the bridge on my strats/squires are all pasted to the body with 4-5 springs in the back as i never use the tremelo anyway.

there's some slight intonation that you may or may not have to do if the string action drops too low.
otherwise, works great.

Yeah...I bet that never happens to the red button on guitar hero

I have two half stacks, four guitars, an bass amp and a couple bass guitars, and a full drum kit at the digs. No Guitar Hero, unfortunately.

So, joking aside,

Does anyone want to jam?

There's not setlist per se, but the most recent list looked like this: Bad Moon Rising, Bouncing 'Round the Room, You Don't Know How It Feels, Character Zero, Uncle Johns' Band, Yer So Bad, Blister, Silent in the Morning. so when we cover that's kind of where we go, Phish, Dead (not to be confused with dead fish, or as we called that in Hish School, Debbie) Petty, the like. We've got some origninals. Low key. Not metal. Chillaxin.

funny stuff. alright. here's my advice. 1. slacken the strings a bit. 2. paste the bridge with one spring first. It should stay, but you might need another. 3. retune the guitar. 4. play it. 5. hear how it "sounds." if it's good enough for you, then the intonation is fine.

Nothing fancy like that Doug...just your run-of-the-mill Standard Mexi-Strat...had it for probably five or six years now...the only thing I don't like it the bridge...squeaky, and I never use the tremolo...next Strat will definately be a hardtail.
