He was found dead in his home, along with his wife and one of his dogs. No cause of death yet. He was such a great actor. R.I.P.

Well, where do I start? I have been a Night Ranger fan since their first album came out. I was also a fan of Brad Gillis since his stint with Ozzy and the Speak of the Devil album. I always liked the versions of the Sabbath songs on Speak of the Devil better than the Black Sabbath originals...

….on a first name basis. We’re all friends here, and it would be cool to know everybody by name. I know some of you from other forums, but we all don;t know each other. I’ll go first. My name is Scott.

Well, I thought I would post this here as I know you guys probably haven’t seen inside of a real one before. If you break a string on one of these during a performance you’re basically screwed, as you have to disassemble the bar and remove the cover to change the string. You would also have to...

I’m not sure where they are playing tonight. He sent me some video about an hour ago. My son’s Uncle is the drummer. He gets to see them pretty much whenever he wants. He took me to one of their shows a few years ago. I hung out with Brad Gillis after the show for a few hours. We talked...

That and bring it over so I can check the truss rod and construction before it’s too late to return it if you need to. Remember what happened last time? Besides @Gemini NGD posts and pics are required😉👍

I just called Gibson Customer Service yesterday. I had one string in a Pack of their 9-42 reinforced strings that had a kink in it (the High E) and they were A-OK to deal with. I just called them last month about a defective bridge for an Epiphone. It arrived in 5 days. Easy to deal with. I...

I’ve been here not as much as usual due to some health concerns, but I am usually able to cruise the forum during the hours that most of our American members are asleep because I am sick and have a hard time sleeping at night. I know that we will be hearing from @Gemini soon because she just...

Or rather, the older generations. My Grandfather ( my Mom;s Dad ) was a big part of my life growing up. By the time I had a kid of my own, I had a son. I named him after my Grandfather. My Grandpa only had a 6th grade education, but he was very wise in practical matters, and was a hard...

The gal from Me Mom and Young Frankenstein has die. She was 79 and had been battling MS for years.

I’m going to start off this thread by explaining to you what I mean by the term “Face Lift.” I have a few guitars in need of one. I am going to be leaving this thread as not open for reply for now, at least until I get the first guitar done. I have an 1985 Aria Pro II Knight Warrior and a...

Well, the actor know for Tarzan and Doc Savage has died. He was 86.

All right, first remove you strings. The get the neck as straight as possible, using a notched straight edge with the finger board touching all points of the straight edge between the frets. Or, if you don’t have a notched straight edge, use a ruler and make sure that all frets are touching...

That’s right. Unfortunately. The actor was 93 years old.

Setting up a Telecaster is in some ways similar to setting up a Strat, but it is also somewhat different. See the threads “Setting up your first strat, 1,2, and 3 for general information. Step 1 Get the neck relief set. I like to remove the strings and get the neck as straight as possible...

Take a moment to make a post in the Introductions” section and give a little bio about yourself and your guitar playing journey, for those members that may not know you from other forums. Thanks, Scott

I mean they are all made in China anyway. I found a really good pair of high tops that I can slip on without lacing and they are comfortable. And they were 12 dollars shipped on TEMU. They are unbranded. I stopped buying NIKE. I will buy NB sometimes if they are on sale, but these TEMU...

My som got out of the Army at the beginning of the month. He’s finally managed to secure a job close to home. So he’s been kind of coming and going, but for the last week he’s been here at my place. So many things have been happening this past week. My son bought me a belated birthday gift...

So how vintage is vintage? Well, for guys my age, this is vintage. I'm 55 years old and I started playing in 1983. My first guitar was the entry level Ibanez Roadstar II RS 100, complete with plywood body and faux wood grain. It also had the bridge mounted in the wrong place, meaning that...
