I restrung my electric guitar last night. This is a big deal because it signifies my passage from mellow acoustic ben harper cover guy to hardrocking drug AC/DC rebel. My next big purchase will likely be a 4 star guitar amp with pure testosterone effects, ear busting distortion, and rock my foot in your face volumage. It will come included with a bunch of guns, STDs, and a hefty dose of smack. Yes, I may be a mild mannered engineer by day but when the sun sets you best hide your daughters, because mike d restrung his electric guitar.
I also finished up my laundry last night. I think I may need to get some dryer sheets. My socks were full of static cling!
Static Guard spray makes a most excellent potato cannon propellant!
You ought to check out this bi-month’s issue of Make magazine, they have a huge article on how to refurbish old guitar amps.
Is this the guitar that had the burrs on the frets? And if so did you take care of them? It would seem silly to restring a guitar over burry frets just to have them break
Burrs? Like the kind you get walking through the fields outside of the Worcester Airport? You could probably just brush those off, you know. They don’t have to break guitar strings.
actually yes, it is the same guitar. I sanded the small metal burrs down a bit after removing the giant golf ball sized ones with a brush. hopefully we’ll have a fresh start with this new set o’ strings.
I’ll have to investigate Make mag. Maybe I can revamp my current amp to dangerously new levels.
For miked’s about to rock
We salute you
Heh. Okay, so my comment wasn’t Terribly exciting, but does it deserve such a “brush-off”?
I like this Ryan guy.
We always stuck with ol standby: Aquanet.
Mike: I have guns (only 2 but after the first paycheck it’s going to be 3. I’m not living w/o a handgun for any longer than I have to), and enough STDs to go around.
I can’t help you with the smack, but I’ve found that the right combination of vodka and more vodka will screw you up as much as you could ever need. Or choose from the following available options:
A) a diverse supply of OTC medications
B) a friend who works in a vet’s office
C) no qualms about putting down my mom, a high tolerance for getting hit in the face, and adequate medical insurance.
Oh man, it’s 2:13am
