....So I had to switch to my awesome Strat.



I'm so pissed.

1st world problems......

Pfft... You don't even know how bad I have it.

My downstairs neighbor was delayed in South Caroline last night. She sent me a text asking if I could let her dogs out.

So I did.

She wasn't home all weekend. So I was able to crank my Marshall for 4 days.

Today, she brought me beer.

Hence my prattling on.

If you hate that LP so much, I'll take it off your hands. I'll make sure it gets played. HARD.

No hate. Only love.

I have a fresh pack of Boomers ready and waiting.

I played the callouses right off my fingers this weekend. Shit be burning.

I really wish you all could play my Levinson Blades. Your taste in guitars would be collectively fucked afterwards.

In only the best way of course.

I probably would, but seeing I'm the Resident Weirdo aka Mr. Questionable Taste In Everything, my tastes are intact.

Probably ernie ball strings

Man, I remember the last time I broke a string....2007. I don't break strings very often anymore.

If it's a new(er) guitar and it broke at the bridge, check the saddle for any sharp edges or burrs.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!


First string I've broken in a really long time. Thick picks and alcohol were the culprits.

hmmmm....just some beer? Seems like you should have held out for more. Like more rattlin' and less prattlin'

White pickups on your LP?

What's the story with that guitar?

Never happens to me with d'addario strings and I pick hard, use heavy picks and drink too much.
I bought earnie ball stings a few months back, string breaks. Back to d'addario. All fine in the world.


Also I like your taste in strats

+1 on the D'Addarios, hard picking, and harder drinking!

Haven't broken a string in many years

Love the LP

It's a 1991 Studio with a ebony board. Super sweet player. I put the pickups in it a few weeks ago. They are Wilde/Bill Lawrence L90s'.

It and the DSL were my mid-life crisis prevention plan. Executed to perfection.

Its the first string I've broken in a lot of years. I change them frequently. Like the moment I hear/feel them start to fade.
As for the Strats, thanks. I'm going to be buried with White Blade.

Except that's not a Strat.

Why? Because it has twin rails?

Anything that prevents MLC is good in my book.

Cool looking LP

By the way, the pickups are creme. Not white.
