I just thought this was funny. I was trying to order the book and my payment method was messed up. So naturally it said I needed to update my payment method. When I tried to do this, it just didn't work. It would just keep setting it back to the previous method. I was getting frustrated after a few tries and decided I'd investigate the code a bit.

This javascript is important:

var radios = jQuery("input[type='radio']");

var clickedElem = radios.filter(":checked");

var selectedPaymentMethod = clickedElem.val();

I set some break points and realized that clickedElem was getting an array back from the radios.filter(":checked"). It should be a single element based on the next line. So I sta

This is a simple one I'm sure, but I can't remember the rest of the movie. I know it was popular. At some point there is a punk or such on a bus I think, and he has different colors in his hair. He asks a guy something like "What are you look at?" To which the man replies something along the lines of, "I fucked a parrot when I was younger and thought you may be my kid."

My dad and I built a nice Telecaster clone. The body is Poplar with a Zebrawood top. It has a Warmoth SRV style neck. At first, I wanted it to be more of a humbucker/higher-output guitar, since my genuine Fender Deluxe Telecaster has SCN pickups which I love for country, blues, and rock. I bought some hot rails to go in our build. The guitar turned out very nice, but I'm not in love with the hot rails pickups. Now I've decided that I want to get closer to the SCN pickups in my Fender. Do you have any suggestions for pickups which have, ever so slightly, more output than the SCN set but still has that classic Tele tone? I was looking at Quarter Pound pickups and was wondering how they sound

Most people will say that string stretching is important when restringing a guitar. I would agree when it comes to any guitar with an angled headstock, because I don't think that "stretching" is actually stretching the strings. Strings may stretch naturally when you add tension to them, but I don't think physically stretching the strings requires tugging on them quite a few times.

I've argued this before, but as someone who's owned a lot of guitars and changed strings thousands of times, I can say that when I've used a good locking nut/floyd rose system, I've never had to stretch the strings. If I'm restringing with the same gauge, and I'm changing one string at a time, I will be able to us

I have a local dealer that usually has some good used guitars, but when I go in there they try to sell these carbon fiber/graphite guitars. I trust the salesman more than I trust most salespeople, and he claims that they have a great sound. However, they sound terrible to me. Am I the only one noticing this trend? Or perhaps you have a different opinion. I'd like to hear what others think of these guitars. I was listening to some of these guitars on youtube and they just don't sound good to me.
