Simple Guitar Repair 簡單電結他維修

Life was really boring during my course of Shingles recovery and I planned to pickup my aging Line 6 Variax 500 electric guitar to pass time. As the guitar had not been played for nearly two years, two of the tuners could not be tightened and the strings were out of tune shortly after few hours. Close inspection found that the plastic washer of those tuners disappeared.

休養期間生活有點百無聊賴,找來我的古董 Line 6 Variax 500 電結他消磨時間。 由于這電結他差不多有兩年没有彈過,在調音時發覺其中兩條低音絃線的 tuner 有點鬆,調好音後不到半天便走音,細看原來是 tuners 有破損,其中的膠墊圈已失掉。

A Night with Eric 與神共聚

Haven’t listened to Eric Clapton’s songs for quite a while. I believed having only his “Riding With The King” album in my iPhone is the major reason why the chance of presenting his songs under Random Play mode was so low.

Tonight, I came across Eric’s latest album through YouTube’s Ads Algorithm.

很久沒有聽過 Eric Clapton 的歌,原因可能是手機中只有他和 BB King 的 “Riding With The King” 大碟,在 Random Play 模式下很少遇上,

今晚剛巧就碰上 YouTube 在其廣告演算法下推介的新歌曲片段 。

Reunion 兄弟重聚

Recently, I spent quite a lot of time cleaning up all my toys. With some struggling, I managed to sell some of the rarely used items and picked up all the other little brothers for reunion.

這段時間忙於清理自己的玩具,經過一番努力,終於把不用的賣掉,亦把分佈各處的小兄弟帶回家中團聚。

His response: “I don’t know. Ask Prince.”

My First Electric Guitar 我的第一支電結他 – Yamaha RGX612S

This is my first electric guitar bought on Christmas of 1988. It is a Yamaha RGX612S and is one of those “Superstrats” that are extremely popular at that time.

1988 年的聖誕節我買了我的第一支電結他 – 日本山葉牌的 RGX612S。RGX 系列是山葉回應當時極度流行之"Superstrats"的電結他。
