    replaced preamp tubes on my buddy's mesa dual rec, it was feeding back like crazy but with this particular weird hum of sorts. tossed tubes on the tester and a couple of them were emitting high pitched noises at pretty loud volumes just sitting there on the tester!

    replaced the jacks on my other buddy's Randall (the one dimebag used in the cowboys days)....looked pretty nice all cleaned up!

    There are AmazonBasics guitar pedals now. They're made by Nux. $25-$45.

    I guess they're looking to make a little money off of the kids running paper routes, saving their allowances and such.

    I found an ol copy of The Great Southern Trendkill on tape, so I've been playing it in my car. I must admit, there's something I like about the saturation of tape sound, although the high frequency fidelity certainly isnt the same.

    Bought my dad a guitar for christmas

    When the lockdown kicked off over here in march, he decided to start learning guitar again (he was a drummer when he was younger, then laterly played bass in a covers band) and bought himself a shitty £50 strat-alike on amazon Fair play to him, he practices pretty much every night, and i'm pretty proud of the progress he's made given he's had MS for 30 years!

    So, given how impressed i've been with my own cheap Squier Tele, i ordered him a brand new Fender Squire Affinity Stratocaster Gotta be better than the lump of wood he's trying to play atm

    I'm looking at a Fender Telecaster. American made, from the early 00s. $900. Man, I am so tempted.

    Yeah, shipping would be more than the gear I'm looking to get rid of a Seagull S6 acoustic, Yamaha FG730s acoustic plus my old amp - prob just stick them up on facebook marketplace

    What have you replaced the acoustics with?

    I can't. I waffled. It's gone. I'm in no rush. I'll get one soon.
