LOL... what strings you using on your jazz? I'm still using the strings that came on my still new shiny sunburst jazz. Not sure if I want to change to flats or stay with rounds. I have flats on my P bass, so mostly likely sticking with rounds. Stock strings are starting to lose it's brightness.

Anyhow... to not go OT... I got these in the mail today. Still waiting on 128gb microsd and samsung leather case.

I finally got the lens I always wanted! Was using the Sigma 2.8/30mm for the past few years, which worked great but it didn't do well in low light. Found a crazy good deal on eBay for $250 and jumped on it!

Nice! I have the same one and it's my go-to lens for my NEX-6.

It really sharpens up around F2.8 for me.

I'm an RS66 Swing Bass guy myself, although I've Slinkies on my fretless Precision... used to get my strings from Radiohead and Supergrass, both local bands - although my source has moved on. Still got two full sets to go though!

Used to love a new set on my Stingray... sadly gone.

These are the 3 current bass's I own, and I've has a several since 1969. The one I miss the most is my 1973 Rickenbacker 4001 in Maple Glow I sold back in the late 70's. From left to right. A 2012 Lakeland Skyline DJ4, 1979 Kramer DMZ 5000, and a 2006 American Fender Deluxe Jazz

what is it?

they are WiFi Access Points.

Quite rock solid, fairly Apple like in looks and GUI.
I have 2 at work that usually see 100+ clients per day and I've never had to do a single thing to them and they never get restarted other than software updates.
Now I don't have as many clients as some but I like solid performance and practically zero maintenance.

2 of them are for home to replace 2 other different models, 2 for work, 1 for a colleague, then the two I'm replacing will go to a different office.

Just booked our tickets to the east coast in a couple of weeks. Our daughter loved NYC so much we are going back for 5 days, also adding a few days in Boston and a couple days in Philly where she hasn't been yet.

Got fed up with my 4K Vizio M-series (extreme motion blur/choppiness and no 4K YouTube streaming) and decided I should spend more money this time on something I won't regret later. So I pulled the trigger on a Samsung KS8000 4K HDR TV. Heard it was the best you can get at this price.

I'll be interested to hear your review on this one. I added it, and another Samsung 4K TV, to my Amazon wishlist. I'm waiting to see if any deals come up on them for next weeks Prime Day.

What size M series did you have? I keep seeing the M60 on sale and am tempted by the price.
 
I am tired waiting for Nintende to release some real good Games to the iPhone. So i pulled the trigger on a new 3ds XL. today.
It comes loaded with 15 games. Many of them are Mario games. My favorite of course is Mariokart :)





...and looking forward to this arrival....

I just bought one of these as well in the 65" version. It's absolutely stunning. I bought it a few weeks ago when it was on sale at Best Buy. I'm still within the return period so hopefully there are some sales on Prime Day and BB will match the price if I call them up.
 
new kicks for my daughter. she is totally into link from zelda and is green obsessed. the black ones are for school, love the butterflies.
