| I've got a neck very similar to that one, but it's Made in Korea. It's really, really nice. I have another one that's from a Squier II Strat, but the finish is super glossy. IIRC, they both came from guitars that had plywood bodies. Some very nice examples did come from Korea, yes. The Japanese Vin... |

| Awesome, I like those RDs. I'm glad most of my favourite amps are solid states, only because it means I don't need to buy an attenuator. I bet that Budda sounds killer for the sorta ground you cover though. Sweet amp indeed. It's only 18 watts but it'll go crazy loud. For ultimate crunch and scream... |

| I play mainly (prog)rock, blues and pop. I used to own over 20 guitars and a bunch of amps and effects, but sold off most of them to pay off a debt. I couldn't get myself to sell these as they are dear to me: Gibson RD Artist 1977, rare issue with long scale neck (25,5 inch, Fender scale) with Moog ... |

Well... congrats, I guess.
Good chance it'll start making sense and you'll get over it. I did. |

| The last film camera I used was a Pentax ME-Super with a 50mm f1.4 lens - it's interesting how what was once carefully composed (only 36 exposures (39 if you were lucky) per roll!) is now left behind, but it's a good thing on balance: several compositions can be tried with no worry about film. I ne... |

| Aww, D810, nice... Yep, a D700 (still a great camera, same sensor as the D3) with, in this case, a 55mm micro nikkor 3.5 lens which I converted to AI. Still my favorite lens. I love those old nikkor lenses and I love the ability to focus up close, I own a couple. Also manual focus makes me feel more... |

| My right ear is deaf since birth, I have tinnitus, misophonia and hyperacusis but my hearing is actually quite good. My tinnitus started some 30 years ago when a drummer hit his snare drum loudly for fun when I asked him to wait until I had inserted my earplug... the a-hole. The first two years afte... |

I too was diagnosed at 49 (and sort of over the shock by now), am retired from work, play the piano (take lessons from a Russian lady every thursday), guitar, drums and bass (and played accordeon and panflute as a kid), have two friends (because of their love ... |

| I get this several times a month, it's called Scintillating Scotoma. It's an episodic neuronal discharge starting in brainstem and ending in the visual cortex. Not something to worry about according to my house doctor and the optometrist I saw. I get them pretty bad tho, they last about 30 minutes f... |

| I've used LSD and mushrooms (Psilocybe Semilanceata, also known as Liberty Cap). Me and my brother used to pick them ourselves, and eat them dried. I prefer the mushrooms over LSD as I find them easier to dose and the effect more friendly, but this may vary per person. Also I find the effects of LSD... |
