  1. so i had the nut on my tele packed with filler to raise the strings a little but today at practice i couldnt keep the guitar in tune it seems like they are getting stuck in the nut.

    anything i can do with this before the show i need to play tomorrow night?, i dont wanna fuck anything up

  2. that other thread is funny, Nels does look a little like David Bowie, and the Jay Bennett one is awesome

     

    Patrick Fugit only really looks like Tweedy when he was younger, as Jeff gets older he's starting to look like a little like Jack Dee

  3. been craving one of those little danelectros like Chan Marshall plays, and also the Syd Barrett/Jimmy Page kinda onces are cool

    anyone own one of the new RIs, i played the 12 string one and its nice. they feel a little cheap though

    also how hard the old ones to come by??

  4. wow, that video was awesome

     

    conor's got much better recently, i use to dig his old stuff but now find it a little hard to stomach. Im Wide Awake is perfect record, Digital Ash too and i really love the new one especially how much better he got at singing, much deeper and less affected

     

    and i agree with the comment about Brakeman, what a tune!

  5. for me the engineer demos sound like a more extreme version of YHFs concept. the finished product is a more subtle and thats a good thing in my books though i think if you're already a fan of the record and want more the demos are a real treat.

  6. I had never heard this before and i dont know what to say, my mind is blown

     

    i would like to thank Porkchop for starting the thread about AM, Analogman for drawing attention to Owls thread, and most importantly Owl for uploading them in the first place

     

    gee

     

    that version of Ashes of American Flags is so heartbreaking, now i remember why i listen to wilco

     

    btw, whats the difference between the engineer demos and the regular YHF demos

  7. i believe Jeff actually uses 13s, i saw a D'Addario advert in some guitar magazine with a pack of acoustic mediums and then electric 13s

     

    i use 11s, tried 12s for a bit and they sounded awesome but maybe a little tough and you cant bend them

  8. can you not just use the strat neck pick up?, there pretty jazzy...roll the tone off a bit, presto!

    if you are set on a hollowbody my friend has the Epi Dot, and its a cool guitar sounds great, nice to play. ive never played the higher end epi's but they may be worth checking out, might be even better
