Bought a cheap guitar to tinker with:  Harley Benton TE-80 from Thomann.de Turns out it's a very nice guitar for the money (app. 170$). If I hadn't already decided that it was a project guitar, I might have left it as-is.

Bertrand Hustle posted:What are you planning to do with it? Tinkering with things is always fun. Mainly just teach myself guitar-setup and electronics. I going to shield the pickup-cavities and eventually mess around with pickup-configurations and whatnot. I might make a black pick-guard to replace the that weird tortoiseshell one.

Nutsngum posted:I bought a $200 new Squire Telecaster like 6 years ago and have had numerous much better musicians then I comment on how good it played compared to way more expensive guitars. Perhaps Telecasters can do no wrong? Teles are very nice for a lot of genres of music. They do kind of have a country-western aura to them that turns some people off. There's also an absolute glut of cheap and good guitars on the market right now. So there's no need to buy an expensive guitar if you're willing to tinker a little with a cheap one.

lookslikerain posted:Not really. I'm 35 and have always lived in a big city in Europe with good public transport and never saw the reason to own a car until now. I got a new job starting this month with a bit of a commute and I also came into a small pile of money via severance from my previous job. Prepare yourself for a lot of "Left the boyfriend at home?"-comments.

Daimo posted:At £215 I'm glad you didn't include a link! As a Dane I kind feel like defending that price.  It's a lot of money, but not if you look at it over the lifetime of the sweater. You can wear their stuff until it goes out of style and then comes back into style without wearing it out.

Nephzinho posted:This thread is a good place to ask as every time I see someone post a good whisk(e)y it turns into a page of tears of joy. Friend is getting married soon, love for booze rivals his love for his fiance. Any consensus for a good $100-150 range bottle to gift? Balvenie Doublewood is my go-to for people who've never had scotch. It's half aged in sherry-barrels so it's pretty mild, almost sweet.

OniPanda posted:Good news! Neither of those are necessary for it to make the beep boops and for the beep boops to be entertaining! 100% this. Get a synth, put some reverb/delay on it and go. Go on a cave- and/or space-trip. e: and not that expensive actually. Something like a used Microbrute is pretty affordable.

I love it and so far it's lost 4 seconds in 2 hours, which is good as I'm doing 1 - 2 minute times on it. Nice. Nothing like an analog timer ticking when you're in the darkroom.
