I play like shit. My fingers are also too big for the strings. I grab two when I try to just cover one.
I can do better with a bass, since the strings are further apart, but I still suck.

And not necessarily. You have to remember not all electric guitars are made equal.

i'm p sure i know a little about about guitar tech

and i've never seen a tech recommend anything above 11s for electrics except on like 23" scale ones


That's probably why mine hasn't bent. My neck is 24 and three-quarters.

Hello, strange things. Not done screaming yet? Good. Allow me to add to your suffering. It's been a long day at work, I could use the entertainment. Who's going to be my first plaything?

At least my intentions are crystal clear. Blame the moderator that came up with that delightful title.

tbf, it is a slight improvement on the last two.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

When the mood takes the Dread Lady, we all should run for our lives! This is not an exaggeration. Also keep in mind that this is not a test. I repeat, this is not a test. If you aren't heading for the storm shelters already, you're probably dead already.

...and now laptop battery is dead.
I'm so stupid for buying a $1069 laptop with a 4 hour battery life and refit it with a $95 SSD to play games with and buy $150 in games yet I rarely play games. I shoyld have bought the $350 ASUS T100 hybrid with an 11 hour battery life when that's all I needed.
I could be sitting in over $800 for clothes and shoes but no, I was really stupid.

Does an i7-4700HQ and a GT750 fit your needs? It also has a 15.6" matte 1080p screen, full backlit keyboard with number pad, 128GB SSD 550mb/s read 520mb/s write, BluRay eead/write drive, and an external detachable subwoofer.

$1069 for a laptop?!

I am sorry to say but, if you are not using it for mid-level graphic design or videogames you just wasted your money.
