:shock: That's awesome! I've rigged up my acoustic kit with those Sound-Off things + dDrum triggers (and Axis E-KITS on bass drum pedals against a practice pad) and loved it :tup: but started jamming with my brother in law's band so went back to acoustic. Do you have any recordings you've done with ...

Ah yeah.. I see what you mean. Remote would definitely be the way to go. :tup: I like my hi-hats to be just so, but I also like the pedal to be right next to left bass drum so I can keep my heel on the bass and still play the hats.

What brain do you have?

Upstrokes are for pussies and weak-elbowed and forearmed junkies. Downpicking ftw. Pick from the wrist you n00b.

Call it what you want, but it is what it is. I acted to defend myself against what I perceived to be a threat to my safety after having been seriously attacked once already.

I just noticed the bold part.. I spent those 2 weeks living in fear of this dog. I told my parents what happened but my brother begged and pleaded and they ended up letting him keep it. I was 12 years old dude, I didn't think I had any other choice.

If Sky once killed a dog in self-defense, well, I guess I can relate, because those three Double Western Bacon Cheeseburgers that attacked my wife's gullet left her no choice but to put them down.

Clititor is useful to my wife's sexual satisfaction, since I cannot provide her with an orgasm via intercourse, which is also why she often participates in threesomes with Ben and Jerry.

Black and white should be soldered together but not to anything else. Cover that connection with tape and tuck it away so it doesn't touch anything. If that doesn't fix it, it could be out of phase. Sometimes that happens when you replace just one pickup, though you should notice it when using multi...

Well that's not so bad, the circular type are a lot worse. It'll be a long time before you'll need a new one as long as you don't hit that part. I've heard of someone who cut out a broken edge with metal shears but I wouldn't want to try that myself.

Where is the crack? If it's on the edge drilling won't help. Only thing you can do is reset your clutch so that edge faces away. If it's in the surface area, drill a small hole (use a bit about the size of a matchstick) about 1/8" from either end of the crack. A regular drill will work fine. Dr...
