ugh, all week I have been dreading today and basically not getting anything done, just because I have an appointment later this morning.

ain't horrible and it ain't great but it only cost $20

people who say shit like "i can smell that rig from here" or become a screaming piss baby when a guitar gets a chip in the finish are the biggest fucking losers imaginable how about you work on your writing instead of keeping everything showroom fresh, ya bitch ass.

the worst part when painting a guitar is waiting for the paint to fully cure. i didn't even use fancy paint, i used $1.25 a bottle acrylic and it is still gonna take at least a few days. booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

got like 10 or 15 compliments last night on my bass tone pretty amazing what you can get with just two pedals and a Pbass (the superior bass)

do people generally like/enjoy the level of customer service Sweetwarer provides? personally, I find it very annoying I don't mind some quick communication to tell me my item is in the mail, but unless there is a problem of some sort, leave me the fuck alone

pointing out right wing hypocrisy is not a winning tactic these people know they are inconsistent because the fact is, they believe in nothing focus needs to be on how we can take direct action against them

after 4 or 5 attempts to get into Hollow Knight, I finally finished it and I am glad I did, it really took away any guilt of deleting it from my PC again.

Nirvana's success is a direct result of great songwriting and perfect cultural timing I very much doubt Kurt fussed about the pedals and amps he used nearly as much as fans fuss about it Practice writing good songs, quit tone chasing

lmao, listening to media coverage on Trump v Escalator and you would think it was a Rambo-esque chain gun toting maniac that had busted into the UN and shot at him and tried to rape Melania at the same time.

damn, was really hoping the Metroidvania feed on here was gonna provide some insight into some cool games outside the mega popular ones but it's just the same Hollow Knight/Silksong glazefest that's on Reddit and a couple of mentions of Super Metroid.

heritage foundation is now urging the FBI to make trans individuals and their supporters listed as domestic terrorists. cis people need to actually be allies now more than ever, even if this fails to go anywhere www.erininthemorning.com/p/republican...

Five games I wish I could play for the first time again 1. Knytt Underground 2. Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus 3. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night 4. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City 5. Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

youtube guitar channel evolution is always the same> 0-5k subs: "let's look at this cheap piece of forgotten gear and see what we can get out of it" 10k-15k subs: "follow my affiliate links to get the gear from today's video at Sweetwater" over 15k subs: "today we're chasing the [band name] tone"

decided to rebuild my pedalboard (it never ends) just the essentials this time boss supremacy

decided to try my hand at modding my "Plexi" by adding a PRE phase inverter master volume the amp came preloaded with a post PIMV but it added some uggo fuzz to the signal referenced a youtube video that came out recently that had a great suggestion, this MV acts like a volume pedal in the fx loop

in 2025 we still have people arguing that the true antagonist of the Alien franchise is the Xenomorph and it pains me to no end.

I always forget what kind of spoiled brats are in the guitar community until the discussion of learning how to do a basic setup comes in and the time in which a player should learn how to do it, if at all. it's not as pathetic as people who can't/won't change their own strings tho.

as the headstock on my guitar says, eat shit www.youtube.com/watch?v=roRQ...

any liberals being like "we should have remorse for Charlie Kirk" are immediately getting the block fuck you, you fucking clowns. discussions of repercussions is one thing, acting like there was a chance of "both sidesing" with Kirk and his ilk is idiotic. they go low, we go subterranean.

Miller's Crossing is easily one of my favorite gangster films ever The romantic tale of friendship is certainly gripping and fun but I also adore the cinematography, lighting choices and sound design Those production choices give it an almost warm or cozy feel for me like a warm glass of cocoa

when you know your shit take is a shit take so you disable quote posting and comments pro tip: just use a drum machine and your imagination you fucking loser IDC that he says that the AI was used only to gauge his ideas and that a real drummer is the way to go, refer to previous point

I really think every electric guitarist should play through a cranked Marshall Plexi (or clone) full stack at least once. It really is a life altering experience It's also a really good way to see where your guitar skill lands as it is not a forgiving amp (this is how I know I suck)

I burnt and cut the roof of my mouth last night while eating dinner and now I cannot enjoy my coffee while it is still hot without an immense amount of pain. why do you mock me, lord?!

I did the unthinkable (for most) today... I traded a perfectly functioning and moderately valued tube guitar amp (Crate Blue Voodoo 120) for a perfectly functioning low value solid state amp (Marshall G100RCCD [MG predecessor]) and I am very happy with this choice.

if you ain't blasting this at the orgy your shit weak as fuck www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6Iu...

I saw Unsane in Seattle just before their renaissance in 2009 or 2010 in a dive bar for $10 I also saw Dick Dale in a tiny venue in Tacoma around the same time for like $20

nothing quite like the relief after playing a show where your rig was acting up and it turns out to be the pedalboard being a problem and not the amp that you love like crazy.

a music video some kids made using someones door camera is making the rounds and it reminded me that I made this 4 years ago with free stock footage and a $40 smart phone in my bedroom enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIaO...

I can't comment, so I shall share, but this is correct. The only pedal better is the Proco Turbo Rat, but that is splitting the finest of hairs. The tubescreamer can eat shit and rot in hell.

anyone saying Alien: Earth is good is lying their ass off

my industrial metal band finally dropped a new demo after over two years. if you are really nice to me, I might tell you what effects pedals I used for everything. holzindustrial.bandcamp.com/album/demo-v-2

a billion snare samples for me to choose from and they all sound like shit.

one of my favorite bass lines. the groove is 🤌🤌🤌🤌 www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLmK...

are people really going cookoo bananas over the JHS 424 pedal because of the Mk.Gee guitar tone? like, what? it's not even that interesting. OOOOOOOOOO, lofi guitar with mild saturation MYSTICAL I wonder if this is going to become as stupid as the old David Gilmour tone forums.

top loader pedals are annoying as fuck (including one of my faves, the Rat) and it is even more annoying when the power cable jack is nestled between the in/out jacks. the next worst power jack placement is on MXR pedals. just separate the placement, it only requires a bit of wire. UGH

i hate when i wake up thinking i am hungry, only to eat and feel like dog shit immediately afterward. and it's family function day. ugggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh.

"you just don't like fun" is the weakest fucking defense for gimmicky/poppy music in the history of the universe

"wahhhhhhhhhhhh, look at me, I'm a gamer who bitches that an indy game from a small dev team costs $20 and only took 8-10 hours to beat. all games should take 50 billion hours to complete the first act or it is a rip off. wahhh wahhhh wahhh" fucking grow up, ya piss babies.

I just adore this way more than I should. 10/10 no notes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4Sn...

amp companies, start putting the fx loop jacks on the front panel so sick of wiring up my pedalboard and then having to fumble around behind my amp on a cramped stage just so my signal flow is right

a while back i posted about how i had to learn a full set of songs in like 2 weeks to fill in on guitar with a black metal band. i ended up playing quite a few shows with them over the last few months. this is easily one of the hardest tracks i had to learn. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HGg...

if talking music and i mention Nausea, i ALWAYS mean this band from LA. not the NYC band. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgzB...

digest this and don't be a bitch about it www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8mE...

string mutes are lame. quit being a bitch ass.

when you get to the gig and all the other bands drive cars manufactured within the last ten years and at least 50% of them have broccoli hair...

man, JQ psychos are about to cream thanks to dumbass Nancy Pelosi calling the Epstein files a "distraction."

if you are in a band that goes out of its way to make it so people have to use your gear or you NEED to ALWAYS use other peoples gear, i need you to know that i fucking hate you and all the music you make. learn how to setup and tear down efficiently, it's not that hard.
