I got very nervous but managed to stammer out my request for him to just read the frequency and the call letters into my little hand-held cassette recorder, thus creating a confused looking Lando Calrissian. He went through with it anyway and I gave him the station's bumper sticker. This confused him even more and I said, "Oh, no, you can put that on your car."
I was half way to my car before I realized how dumb that sounded.

Kim Gordon complimented my substitution of a rubber hi-bounce ball for the vibrato bar spring.

Fuck, don't think I'm not doing that on my Vox tonight.

That's a keen idea.

How does doing that effect that likelihood of the guitar going out of tune?
