There's some super cheesy Maryland public television program I saw years ago with Paul Reed Smith and G.E. Smith talking about guitars to a bunch of kids. PRS being PRS had some obnoxious dragon inlayed PRS. I never saw it on TV again. Maybe I was having a fever at the time.

Paul Reed Smith has an entire series of Dragon guitars, and that series is absolutely peak Stupid Music poo poo. Each one is the product of some poor luthier spending dozens of hours painstakingly inlaying hundreds of specifically differently colored minerals into the shape of a big stupid loving dragon, the end result being something that looks like it came straight off the bedroom wall poster of the basement dwellingest D&D fan ever, and you can buy your very own for the low low price of around $15,000 - $20,000 a piece for what is ultimately the kitchiest loving instrument ever.

"We choose to make the gaudy dragon guitar in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too." - Paul Reed Smith

My wife sold a PRS custom with a seahorse on it to a bluesdoctor in her time at SW and the commission paid the down payment on our car. The guitar was actually relatively tasteful for a gaudy PRS, and was featured in one of the PRS calendars, but I'd never buy one. My SE semi-hollow that cost like a fifth the price is plenty for me.

well he's right. the more fragile floating point operations can survive in a tonewood motherboard where they seem to be eliminated or squashed in the crystal lattice of a regular fiberglass mainboard. it comes down to that

Quarantine has me listening to way too much psychobilly, and the entire genre is just ripe with stupid music poo poo thanks to boiling down to “what if 1950s horror films had their soundtracks written by confused and weirdly apolitical punk musicians”. The coffin bass is obviously top tier stupid music poo poo (helped by Nekroman actually playing some good lines and managing to do fast slap upright with heavy steel strings with a pretty heavy touring schedule) but some of the other bass antics are dumb-yet-awesome, like jumping on basses. Trying to figure out the best/dumbest effects to add to the little clicky piezo behind the fingerboard of my upright. Hell, the clicky upright pickup (and how much of a chore it is to get the actual pickup to not feedback in a loud setting) is such a strange thing, but it’s also incredibly appealing to my lizard brain that I have a pickup specifically to make hitting the fingerboard come through speakers. So far, best has been using a fuzz pedal and pitchshifter to get weird distorted booms.

Considering working on a heaps tiny SMD build so I can just fit it into the guitar in the first place

Best 40 bucks I've ever spent. I have the pink Berhinger HM clone. Its great. Its good enough that the band Gatecreeper uses them live. Their entire sound is old school death metal riffs with that HM-2 sound. I was surprised when I saw them live, the only pedals the one guitarist I was near had was that bright pink clone and a volume pedal... That's all you would ever need I guess 🤘

Best thing I ever did was rehouse 2 of them in a single enclosure, one in fuzz position 1 and the other in 2 with an order switcher in between. It's good being able to ruin someone's day in two completely different ways with a little tap of the foot.
