It’s a CNC Warrior brace, assuming you’re referring to the Lynx pistol.

Lol, it’s not nearly impressive as it sounds. Just like guitars, guns aren’t cheap (at least not the ones I like) and it doesn’t take many to start adding up. And a chunk of that insurance value is ammo and accessories. Here’s a few of my AK’s for shits and giggles:

I’d give Collectibles Insurance Services a call. I have a $40k policy on my gun collection and it costs about $400/year. You don’t have to turn in any kind of inventory list or appraisal, just tell them how much coverage you want. The only reason I don’t use them for my guitar gear is because...

Wet/Dry rig with the SLO and the Friedman. Go big or go home.

God dammit I love me some stoner rock!

That’s what I do as well. I snagged a (IIRC) 3/8” hole punch off Amazon. 1 whack with a hammer, and problem solved. I’ve used the Schallers for years, and love them. The newer ones have worked loose on occasion, so I put a little dab of blue Loctite on the nut threads now. Never had one loosen...

I’ve run my Mesa DC-3 thru an old Soldano 4x12 for years. It has the old Soldano X12000 speakers in it, which are similar to a V30 but with less of a mid spike. I’ve tried a handful of other cabs and nothing else does it for me. The cab is on the smaller/lighter side compared to any other 4x12...

That’s a whole lot of ugly Les Pauls.

I googled it right after I posted (I don’t know why it didn’t cross my mind to do that before), and apparently the previous owner of the building had purchased some of the foam from Home Depot.

Strangely, I was just reading about that fire last night. Had no idea there was a documentary about it. One thing I that thought was odd was the fact that Home Depot paid out $5 million because of that fire. I wonder how they had any culpability in it?

Our kid has great taste in music, but it took some work to get her there. She was into K-Pop, The Beatles and broadway musicals. So we took her to see Tool for her first concert at 14, and that changed everything for her. She’s 16 now and listens to a lot of really good music. Her favorite...

I sure as shit wish she would. She has free reign to use any of my amps whenever she wants, but she never does.

I started off as a bass player 25 years ago. I quickly gravitated to guitar as my main instrument, but filled in on bass enough to stay somewhat proficient over the last 20 years. Now that arthritis is wrecking my finger dexterity, I'm back with bass as my #1. My rig is a Trace Elliot AH350SMX...

Those look like Fillmores. I’d suspect they’re solely for the sit-down rendition of “Culling Voices”. Edit: You can see them in this live video of “Culling Voices” as well.

I read somewhere the other day that the band is getting 1 Mil per show. No idea how much truth there is to that. That works out to $40 per ticket in a 25k seat area. Seems plausible, I guess.
