Our house isn't full of them (from TJ Maxx) but there's definitely some in there. As well as bargains from Burlington, Savers, Goodwill and many other thrift stores lol

Trying out a pedal in an Austin, TX music shop (EQD Disaster Transport), tried using their T60 but the wiring was fucky as hell. Noticed they had an Adam jones Gibson LP, said what the hell I have the fanboi tattoo I guess I have to try that. I guess this goes without saying but my own guitar that I've put a ton of work into sounds much better to me. It was aight but I can't imagine paying $2500 USD for it. Looks cool though.

I actually really care. I've been counting down the days. I have no idea why I like the Olympics so much, but I do.
Word is that there's going to be "something special" planned for the opening ceremoy on the Seine.
Isn't Snoop gonna light a big fatty with the torch or something?

Just checked this out: why didn't they burst the back and the neck? Cost, obviously, but that's a nice "authentic" (heh) detail.
But yeah, I would think this is basically '24 standard with a cool ass paintjob. They didn't even get the bridge pup right. Ooof.

I'd care if local broadcasting covered the Olympics instead of American athletes at the Olympics

Someone should start an Olympics thread. I am that someone:
Paris 2024 Olympics
Discussions here about the Paris 2024 Olympics. Opening ceremony is Friday, July 26. https://www.npr.org/2024/07/24/nx-s1-5050642/2024-olympics-paris-how-to-watch-opening-ceremony-schedule

Did Parisians collectively shit in the Seine like they said they were going to?
Sounds like any other day in Paris.

We'll see, the dancers for the opening are actually on strike. Not jocking.
That will be something. The Russian journalists have been denied permission to broadcast the event. Talk about inclusive games...I'd care if local broadcasting covered the Olympics instead of American athletes at the Olympics
I dont know where you got the information on that... But they actually did. Scientists have noted an increase in fecal parasites in the water since they began testing it. It had cost us 1.4B€ to clean that damn water.
Note that Macron have ask the Olympic committee for the organisation of the 2038 winter Olympics.

I'm not sure why you think this about me, but I love sports. Coverage of the olympics is always weird because they usually follow American athletes, do all the mini documentaries of the athletes and talk about how they overcame hardship, etc.
I'm not sure why they can't just show me the exciting qualifiers, and then show me the finals of each sport regardless if an American is participating or not.
Maybe coverage is different now compared to how I remember it, though

lol I saw a bunch of Parisians on tiktok joke about how they were going to shit in the Seine right before the mayor swam in it and again before the olympics. Guess they actually did it.
Furtive Glance
Unfamiliar with the type of thing I’m seeing.
Whatever happened to the SEXXXIVERSE? Someone on this board still own it?
What's the back story on that lol
I believe it was a Sims (edit: correction, Chris Woods) built neckthru (edit: correction, bolt on) mega-multilaminate that passed through the hands of like a dozen or more SSO members. I think the original owner was Shannon?
I think the knock on it was that it was heavy and had a very-not Universelike thick neck.
Its been like a decade since the last time it was discussed but i recall the last owner being very content with it and steadfast it was staying with him. Forgot who it was but it was a regular.
Edit:
NGD - the elusive sexxxiverse
well, as much of the town bicycle as this guitar may be at this point, i feel it is only fair to document its continuing history - therefore, i declare this one mine for now. i am a serious hoarder of instruments, especially unique ones such as this, so even if it doesn't get a ton of playing...
