raven1313 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 this is odd, but I stumbled onto something a few years ago. I was changing strings and forgot to polish the neck. I se Old English dark furniture polish. It is really good in my opinion. anyway, I decided to go ahead and do the neck. as it turned out, the oil dampened my strings just enough to rid it of what I call brassy, shrill in the high end. It produces a dampen effect on the strings that I rather like. Thought I would pass that on for no apparent reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace of Spades on the jukebox upstairs and condensation on the dance floor mirror, in the night club. Sadly no longer there. It burned down a few years ago. I have a couple of photos somewhere of a very drunk Darren Calwell in the 'Gate, on his 18th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember those preformal nights, about five songs that were "our" stuff, then us all thinking it was a great idea tot tit bout to stuff like 'Rhythm is a dancer' the rest of the night... fun times. In the days before mobiles, I missed Darren's eighteenth due to a glitch in meet-up times (if memory serves, the party wither skipped Dobbins' Inn, or was late to it). I remember the photos, though.... carnage is not the word! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
