That’s right about when I was in drivers ed as well. I honestly couldn’t tell you what NJ taught. I’m with you, though. Honor the zipper. And left lane is for PASSING damnit. I guess they didn’t want us out there treating the left lane like the autobahn when we first got our licenses.

That Casino is probably worth more than my 72 es330 and my 73 Tele combined! That’s awesome! Keep it forever. Seriously.

haha I don’t think so either. Sometimes I just write things. You got my point, though.

People who ignore a nicely operating zipper merge because they are selfish.

Niiice!! I’m with you on the Ampeg. I had an old Gemini and got rid of it. My buddy actually still has a Gemini and he lives in Linden. He used to go over there before they were closed and they’d give him free tubes and stuff for the amp.

Depending on the age of that Casino I say you should never get rid of that. That’s an awesome family heirloom right there. I certainly wouldn’t be gigging out with that either.

I hear you on that. I used to live and gig a lot in NYC and I’ve had plenty of gear disappear. I would’ve never used the ES330 out gigging. I had a specific set of gear that I would use out and it was mainly a MIM Tele ‘72 Deluxe Reissue, a Boss Blues Driver, and a Fender Hot Rod Deville 4x10. All three are great…

I use it in black beans when I want to make a bean dip o cuando quiero hacer frijoles molidos para tostadas.

That’s a Bangle-butt that I could never get behind.

I knew kids from high school that would put bricks in boxes and bags and put them in the middle of at 50 mph speed limit mountain road and watch from a distance. And no, I was not ever part of this shinanigans.

I’m gonna vote NP even though I cringe at the idea of wheel hub/bolt pattern adapters. It could be 5-lug swapped but the CL listing is down and I just assume it’s not. Or maybe the wheels are drill n fill. Either way, not a huge fan.

Hey, I’m a Giants fan. We need a morale boost by means of cheap jabs on others - justified or unjustified.

This was great. Mostly for the Brady jabs. Well done. My fave:

I’m interested in buying this Saab that leaks “mystery power fluid”.

That is wonderful advice!!

My friend in high school bought a Probe for a few hundred bucks. It definitely wasn’t a few hundred dollar Probe. Never made it out of his neighborhood. Ended up driving a 90's Nissan Quest

A star for Junior.

lol I’ve had to sneak guitars for years. Don’t worry. I won’t tell the wife.

Whoa! I had never seen that before until I searched it. That’s pretty sweet. I’d love to play one. I had a bunch of strats over the years and I’ve sold most of them. I have two Frankensteins left but they hardly get played. A strat with a tele neck and bridge - I can def get down with that.

Definitely correct about aesthetics. I always thought the Telecaster was the ugliest guitar on the planet. Then one night in 2004 I had a dream that I was on stage playing a Tele (I was in a band at the time) and I woke up with a completely different view on the guitar. Decided to go to the guitar store and play one…
