now I just need a good mandolin. and maybe to replace my 61-key keyboard with a full size piano. and of course a bass amp and electric amp instead of using this headphone amp. and...

one of the selling points, besides filling out my ability to play whatever i want, is how light it is, given how my back has been bothering me lately.

with the boomers getting out of the way, i guess we'll have to start saying "okay Xer" instead.

i really need to find a place that will convert my mandolin book into a comb-bound book

why do any of these books come in editions other than plastic comb bound???

@davepolaschek Yeah, that's the thing... they used to, do they still? But I should give it a whirl, what's the worst that could happen?

gzt,
@gzt@hulvr.com avatar

@davepolaschek exactly, they've all seemed to be shifting more toward self-service, print-on-demand, etc.

@forensicgarlic yeah that's what I'll try (well, FedEx) unless I find a real local business that does this stuff, but print shops in general seem more B2B...

@Stacky cool I'll try once I'm back in the saddle

sometimes my coughs resonate with the mandolin, which is cool, I guess?

This is an angle I didn’t expect. Instead of Tesla being investigated for misleading consumers by naming its features AutoPilot and Full Self Driving, it’s being investigated by prosecutors for misleading investors.

That actually has more teeth in America given that while consumer protections are week, the US doesn’t play around when you screw investors. Just ask Elizabeth Holmes or Martin Shkreli.

I got my old acoustic professionally set up in the fall and now that it's spring it's time to do it again myself. Action and neck relief seem fine but I have a little buzz on the D and G strings from frets 3-7. I haven't measured the relief but when I test it it clears the frets with a small gap, so it's not bad. I'm trying to figure out what to adjust. Does that sound like a neck relief issue, an action issue, or a fret issue? Or an "acoustics can have a little buzz as a treat" issue. #guitar

@ambergrey I did change the string but the buzzing was when I fretted a note, so lubricating the nut is irrelevant
