Does the sunlight bleaches nitro finishes very quick?
And yes, the mancave is impressive. Every peace of equipment is desireable. If my mom allowed me to play with the kids from another countries, I'd spend all my free time at yours

Was messing around with my pedals last night, made some cool new delay presets. Found a really cool sound by combining the freeze, a distorted reverse delay and the trinity on a really long hall setting.
Also finally got around to cleaning the scratchy pots on my strat, now it sounds so much better (it doesn't cut out anymore!).

Some types of rubber and plastic can chemically react with nitro and damage it. Stands and straps were once common culprits of ugly neck/body marks, but modern Fender/Gibson nitro is much more resilient plus far fewer stand/strap/case makers are oblivious to this.

got to play after not touching anything for almost a month...
continued work on my modular pedal board builds, still can't find a right angle TRS cable for my flint that will work (i built the one in the picture, it doesn't work)
then i got to test out my new mic, and try some robot sounds...
then tried out my miku stomp...
