I appreciated that he stressed his love for some inexpensive gear like the FMR compressor and preamp. When it got to the obligatory Earthquaker blow job I figured that was the stupid music poo poo and I turned it off.

I felt like he was trying to play it real sly but that he was kind of embarrassed a little. He knows he has a cool cachet simply because that is what he plays against to be the character that is Steve Albini and Bush is about as uncool as it gets.

Razorblade Suitcase is the only Bush album I own and I realized long after I bought it that it's because of Albini's work on it. It sounds really good and I think it actually highlights the differences in their songwriting that made them not just Nirvana wannabes, especially up against In Utero. "Greedy Fly" is genuinely one of my favorite songs and it's mostly the texture of it.

Hey you guys just got me to answer a question I've had since the '90s! Who was Bushx Same guys, it turns out. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_(Canadian_band) quote:Bush became newsworthy again in 1995, as the result of an intellectual property dispute with the British alternative band Bush. As Troiano still owned the rights to that name, the British band were forced to release their albums in Canada as "Bushx".[3] In late April 1997, Troiano and Gavin Rossdale reached an agreement under which Rossdale's band was permitted to use the name Bush without the letter X, in exchange for donating $20,000 each to the Starlight Foundation and the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund.[4] So of course everyone called the Bush even on the radio except when advertising albums. Anyways I had "Deconstructed" which was some pretty good DnB.

That’s hilarious that Bush was so derivative of Nirvana even down to choosing a name they’d have to pay someone else to use

I was searching on how to adjust poo poo on my Yamaha acoustic and came across this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ-LJa4-2UU I dunno, this entire video seems so sketch. The end result the dude got his guitar back reglued and repainted. Or he was offered a like guitar of value. Good on him for that, but im terrified otherwise.

Any of you guys ever bought a warmoth neck? Are they setup nice out of the box? Like are there jagged fret ends and whatnot? Am I going to have to level and dress all the frets or are they good to go usually? I have an old rear end strat body, and enough random spare parts to make a cool guitar if I had a neck.

The one Warmoth neck I have needed the frets leveled before it was playable. I have no idea if that's common.

Warmoth doesn't do anything to the frets other than (in my experience) remove the sharp edges. I mean I guess you could get super lucky and get one that's perfect without any work but I fully expect to have to do some fretwork whenever I buy a Warmoth. They make drat good necks though.
