  2. Completely Off-topic Poll

    in Put it to a vote

    Posted

    It ain't saying it's safe, just that it's safer than alcohol and certain prescription drugs.

    First of all, I voted undecided 'cause I'm not sure, and even though I'm pretty sure I made the opposite argument on here a while ago, I'll say this anyway.

    C'mon, does that point really have any valid reason for legalizing marijuana? Essentially what you are saying is: It's bad, but it's not as bad as some other stuff, so it should be legal.

    That argument, if anything, isnt an argument in support of legalizing marijuana, but an argument in support of the outlawing of alcohol and those certain prescription drugs.

    ...or I could be way off, its still early :D

  3. A Nest Of Vipers

    *** is up with the back of the necks on those things?

    or am i just seeing things..

    Those massive humps are supposed to be a...reference point, I guess, when you're shifting into higher positions on the neck. You could normally use the body as a reference point but these violins are obviously....differently shaped, so you'd need another reference point.

    Also,

    LGM, do you know how the tuning pegs work on these violins? because the headstock definately doesn't look like that of a normal violin.

    Oh yea, those are AWESOME looking violins btw.

  4. Dream Theater

    I looooooove dream theater!!! They're definately my favourite band.

    About the changing rythms: I like them, but I sorta liked them better when it was the first couple times I had listened to the song and didn't know it was coming. Now when I'm listening to them and the rythm changes, it doesn't sound as weird/cool 'cause I'm expecting it......or maybe I just listen to too much DT... :D

    Oh, and Smitty, that was the most ADD post I've ever seen.

  10. Unleashing the Mod from Hell

    And since Private Pyle is having such problems, I'm going to have the other members of the Forum help him out (I hear lots of cries for "community", so here ya go).  If Litch gets a 2nd warning from any Admin or Moderator, the flood control will be set to 1 hour between posts.  If Litch fails you folks and does get suspeneded due to this, the flood control will be set to 2 hours (or higher).  It's up to you to help him (thanks for trying Mike).

    Well, I haven't posted much in this thread, but I thought I had to reply to this, just...because.

    The preceding does absolutely nothing to help you, litch, or the forum as a whole. It was and is the most obnoxious and outright example of how you (kevan), have abused your newly obtained power, as an admin on PG. To me, it seems nothing more than an attempt to turn the forum against a single forum member, who has (obviously) pissed you off in the past. Simple as that.

    Now, you can pick apart my post , and tear me a new one, but thats my opinion and its not going to change.

    EDIT: sorry, who keeps bringing back these old polls?

  12. Somebody NEEDS this veneer

    in The Marketplace

    Posted

    i agree. using veneer for a headstock or small things is ok, but for a whole top you have to look at forever? ill pass.

    and hiding it from the side behind binding to make it look like a top. lol. so fake and cheap looking imho

    What difference does it make if you cover a whole top that "you need to look at forever" in veneer versus with a thicker top. It won't look any different...

    Or say your guitar to sound like its all mahogany, but you still want the good looks that say, a quilted or flamed maple top provides. What better way is there to add some nice figured maple, without messing around with the mahogany tone?

    Although maybe your talking about photo flames? They're cheap looking.....

  15. The Modes

    in Players Corner

    Posted

    Ok, so if I'm playing over, say a C..Eb..Bb.. chord progression, I can play over it usingany mode that has C Eb and Bb in it?

    In this case for instance, could I use C Dorian, D Phrygian, F Mixolydian, C Aeolian and D Locrian? :D

    try some camphor burl.

    I may be wrong, but I think I heard somewhere (possibly this forum) that camophor burl deteriorates metal. I'll try and find the post

    EDIT: Maybe I'm wrong, cause I can't find the post. But I'm pretty sure I've heard that.

  21. The Modes

    in Players Corner

    Posted

    Ok, I am familiar with the modes....kind of, but I have no idea how to use them, in solos etc. Here's what I don't understand.

    Lets say I'm playing over something in D+. Could I play over it with, say, D Lydian? Even though D Lydian has a G# and D major doesn't? :D

    Can somebody clear this up for me?

    Thanks, Aaron

  23. Top ten favourite guitarists?

    that would be quite high i think, because being about 200000th out of 6 billion is a high ranking.

    i dont know how many people out of the 6 billion play guitar, but its becoming increasingly popular

    if 10 million people played guitar, you would be better than 80% of the world.

    lol. im not saying you arent, but you were trying to make out that you were bad by giving yourself a high ranking.

    his number is near 2 million. Not 2 hundred thousdand. :D
