I don’t know what the path forward is for this platform, but good grief, I’m out. It’s slow, it’s impossible to set up new communities, it’s rife with political misgivings about the founders (justified), and most importantly, it’s just not fun to use

I’ll be at squabbles.io if anyone needs me

The Microsoft Sculpt keyboard is my perfect keyboard. They discontinued it a couple months ago, but you can still find them in Amazon. Tented and split (though it’s one solid unit, so no customization) with a separate wireless numpad for exactly the reason you described. Typing on anything else makes my fingers go numb after about half an hour.

Still thinking about trying a fully customizable one someday though, but I’m not sure it’s worth the expense for me

Seems like more web3 BS to me. Anything that Jack Dorsey puts his energy into is on my do-not-use list.

I’ve been working on transitioning between barre chords and major 7th chords (specifically the voicing that uses just the top four strings with fingers arranged in a diagonal).

Going from the 7th to the barre is easy enough, but transitioning back with confidence and accuracy is proving challenging

Hah! I did not know that. They just gotta keep us guessing on this stuff

Not an uncommon assumption! I learned this by making the same assumption on Reddit a few years ago

Oh good! My first opportunity to point out that Jazzmaster pickups aren’t P90s! They look very similar, but they’re wound very differently and have a distinctly different sound.

But they’re both pure sex, so you’re not wrong on the fundamentals, lol

And like… everything else, too

Great looking build! I have bad shoulders, so I’m always a little put off by the weight of most explorers. How much does this thing weigh?

It sure is! Haha, our culture lives on outside of Reddit!

I’m glad you like this one. I’ve never been a huge fan of the Tele look, so once I saw my first offset version, I knew I had to have one. Then after a couple years of modding other guitars, I decided to just build one. Turned out super fun to play

Oh, and yeah, whatever prevails, prevails. I tried to make one myself a few days ago, but beehaw just kept failing out on me. Not sure if they just let anyone make a community or if it’s more of a process.

Whatever. R/guitars was my favorite place on the internet, and I just want to help rebuild that here
