Always a fan of mushrooms but I finally got to try some different fungi today. The wife and I took a trip to Myco Terra Farm in South Deerfield, MA today. We picked up some Blue Oyster, Shiitake, Piopinno and Lions Mane. Made ramen style soup with the Oyster and Shiitake. We pan seared the Lions...
I saw in a video of someone using a clear “aged” tinted lacquer to discolor white plastic knobs. I couldn’t determine from the video if it worked. Would this work or are there other methods of tinting a white plastic to appeared yellow and aged?
Despite you’re thoughts on Qatar…..
This is has been a great tournament so far. Great matches and plenty of upsets so far (Argentina vs Saudi Arabia, Germany vs Japan). I’m thouroughly enjoying the matches.
Of course I’m rooting for USA but I’m always rooting for France as a Frenchman
USA...
The American Dream baby!
6 years ago someone broke into my house and stole my Taylor 110 amongst other things. I really loved that guitar even if it was an entry level Taylor. I never did replace it because i was so salty.
Throughout the years I kept telling myself I need to get another...
Man I’ve been fiendin to play bass again. After all I first started playing bass at 15 until 27 when I switched to guitar…. 7 years later here I am.
This bass is really light compared to other 5 strings I’ve played. The neck is extremely playable. Thinner than Warwicks and Fender but not ibby...
Just thought I’d see if anyone else was into Legos. I just very recently started building some sets. I’ve always enjoyed Legos as a kid but never got any sets. Just like any other hobby I get into I fall deep into the hole lol.
Started with the Star Wars helmet collection Vader. I’ve built...

I picked this up on clearance from GC. I...
Very well constructed. No structural or hardware issues. All parts work as they should
Fit and finish is near perfect. I figured I’d get out the microscope to look at every inch. Only issues with the finish (which I wouldn’t even notice unless I was being overly meticulous) are the binding in...

I started getting away from super strats and really enjoying the feel of guitars that were designed decades ago. Thin necks just weren’t feeling right in my hand. I started gassing for an LP. I know there’s distrust and disdain for Gibson, they do seem to have turned a corner (sort of). Also...
After I bought my Les Paul standard and the Adam Jones signature came out, I felt the desire for a silverburst LP. Saw this several weeks ago and bought it.
I heard and read from several sources that Epiphone really stepped up their game and are putting out some quality guitars (regardless of...
Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar:
Ibanez RG550 Genesis in desert sun yellow. I ordered it when they were first announced.
Modifications (if any): neck and bridge pickup changed to pink DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy, volume and tone knob switch for green knobs, pickup selector switch tip...
Started a new project. I’m going to retolex my Mesa Mark V25 and my Mesa 1x12 thiele cab. Purchased seafoam green bronco and beige can grill cloth.
today I disassembled the amp and cab. Not too hard but now the hard part... removing the existing tolex. I’m using a heat gun to soften the glue...
I’ve wanted an Eclipse for several years but never purchased one. I knew full thickness was the way to go. Natural black burst looks classy and I think anyone could appreciate. So here is a new (released in 2019 I think) E-II Eclipse FT
the finish seems flawless. Nothing out of order that I can...
I had written something but it got erased so here I go again...
I wanted this guitar as soon as I seen it last year. It looked so beautiful and I wanted to add a 7 to the arsenal. It had to be easy to play (Jason Hook told me that they’re hard), comfortable neck, and fixed bridge.
First off...
They have a masked zombie Wayne Static singing live for the 20th Anniversary of Wisconsin Death trip.
This was one of the first cd’s I bought when I was a kid. There’s some sentimental feelings but this is a little weird.
How dope would it be to have a 3rd person open world Oregon Trail! You have to hunt, barter, deal with the loss and illness of your family. It could be timed to make it past the Rockies in a certain amount of time.
Just a random thought I had driving to work. What other old school games would...
... because the sun is out
After months and months of waiting, Ibanez finally shipped my guitar to Axe Palace.
Let me preface that I never played an original RG550 so I can’t compare it to that so it’s all based on the Genesis.
The color, which is hard to capture on IPhone, is so yellow it’s...
how does everyone feel about Chuck Schuldiner’s nephew selling one of Chucks personal Stealths? I mean it’s his to do what he wants with it but I’ve seen negative comments on the post. Thoughts?
