But I'm sure it won't work either, cat-gut guitars need a box.
Yeah they need more box or an amp. I have the Taylor T5z Pro and it's OK without an amp but not really. I think you have to accept it isn't really an acoustic in the traditional sense.

You are 100% correct.

I'm going to look into an old Wilson student classical that I had many years ago, still miss that guitar.

Congrats! I like it, it looks bad ass!
Those wheels look like they're going to be a pain in the ass to keep clean

At first I thought that the reflection of the driveway were running boards
It's leaking oil

Adding to the Ryobi collection. Mini air pump. Way easier than using a floor jack for the bikes and far better than hauling the compressor and extension cords around the car. Light as a feather and very fast.

Can't beat it for $25.

Congratulations my guy! My neighbor recently got one and a good friend of mine wants one. It's an eye catcher and if equipped correctly as yours appears to be, enough oooomph to boot. Perfect color also. I'd like to hear your feedback on a couple of months...

More snow is on the way. My current 50# bag of calcium chloride is on its 6th winter and almost used up. In Northern New England, most winters I went through a couple of bags due to a bigger and steeper driveway and lots more snow and ice.

Too lazy to go out to the garage so using a stock internet pic, but finally let our yard folks go and will handle it myself. Bought the mower a while back but realized the battery powered leaf blower was not going to cut it for our 3/4 acre lot…

I have the BR700, the 600-800 blowers are great and last forever. Don't forget most of them have a cold weather mode switch under the air cleaner. Enjoy!

I bought this snow thrower attachment back in the fall, but finally got a chance to try it out. It attaches to the same base handle/motor as my weed whacker. It worked ok. It's able to throw 3" of heavy slush, but only straight forward, which is a bit of a pain. I tried angling it a bit and that worked to a degree, but the crosswind today sort of negated the angling coming up the driveway. And it throws the snow so far forward that I had to lower the garage door and let the snow hit the door, then clean it up after. Still, it beat shoveling. I guess I just need to develop a good technique for throwing the snow at a reasonable angle. They're priced at $149, but I think I got mine for less during a sale. Not bad for the price, but if it snowed more often here, I'd opt for a larger snow blower.
(The clearer area I just did with a shovel. It's still snowing, so there is snow where I used the thrower already.)

I approve. Assume I'll be seeing you on the GenesisOwners forum

Love the bugs - Genesis update their app that allowed my wife to lock the car, but not open it. Had to go out an rescue her the other day.
