Very nice! I have been really wanting to get a Nashville tele, but I just can't justify it since I don't play much anymore.


There's one way to fix that. ;-)

I know but my left hand can't take playing for very long anymore. However... #17

Nice. I used to play quite a bit, mostly just for my own entertainment, but haven't played any in a while (probably have forgotten how). Broke a string a couple of years ago and never got around to replacing it. Never had a nice guitar and the one I have is so hard to play it's more like work than fun anyway.

Nice bikes. My brother used to ride a rocket quite a lot. He said the adrenalin rush became addicting. The problem was, he had to keep pushing it to get the same rush. One day he got in an accident and spent a month in a hospital. Lost a bit of his memory so he does not even know what happened. Now he says he feels like a recovering addict. He dares not even go for a ride.

Thanks. Sorry about your brother. I've had friends die riding to fast on the mountain roads, and highways. I decided to go racing instead for my "rush" and believe me, racing on a track and racing on the street are 2 completely different things. That got kind of spendy for me, so I began racing SuperMoto, which was less, then switched to just dirt riding with my Son, which was for me much more fun.

I'd suggest you talk with your brother, about either riding on a track (track days) under controlled circumstances, or maybe go dirt riding...?

That's a lot of strings! You in a group? I just got done unloading my SUV from last night's gig. I need a roadie! Any volunteers? @saevel25? @Jeremie Boop?

@mcanadiens? Anyone?!!!

I was years ago.  Two different bands.  I also played solo before that.  Now I just play.

Yeah I love the recording studio. Very heavy though. Got me through my punk/indie years nicely though. ;) Perceptive. Yeah my uncle who makes the bows makes the guitars as well. They are very popular with the country stars I guess. They retail for 8-9k or so. I have no idea how much my #17 is worth. My dad has #03 which is pretty cool. :). Check out mcphersonguitars.com I think it is.

Some of the woods he uses are just beautiful. They can only make a handfull of guitars each month. The factory is pretty amazing to visit as well. It is fun to watch them making the guitars. Made here in Sparta, WI.

    • Yeah.  As far as remaining still, I was thinking body rotates around the spine like an axis.  Instead of pivoting, some like me, sway, come off that axis, leave weight on back foot, etc.  
    • I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄 
    • The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.
    • Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.
    • Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.
