thats true, i rarely use my neck pickups on my guitars with two humbuckers. neck position single coils are great though.

then again, if i replaced the neck pickup on some of my guitars with somthing better, i might use it more often.

theres no reason at all to use a neck pickup

listening to Darkthrone and eating yellow squash bread

Not for you.

The clean tones from a neck pickup sound so much better than the bridge pickup. Fuck bright, twangy tones.

Yes it does, it's also one of the main reasons I'm afraid to jump into quarter systems - I basically have never had to try in school, so I'm a little hesitant at having such a switch-up (especially with how far I live from the school) because everyone says that it is so radically different... I don't know, maybe I'm just overblowing things.

Eh, I went from quarters to semesters and I thought a quarter system was much more hectic. I liked the semester system much better.

Quarter system? I've never even heard of that. No school I've ever been to has used it, anyway.

That actually sounds kind of appealing to me, because that would mean (I assume) that you take half as many classes, and get to focus on similar material more often. I hate having to keep up with a bunch of classes with vastly different assignment material.

Complex finger picking is just as awesome as shredding.

I don't see how anyone can perceive a distorted bridge pickup as being anywhere near as heavy sounding as the neck pickup.

I cant stand the sound of a neck pickup. I've had emg 81's, emg 85's, and some good duncans. I always go back to the bridge.

My entire schooling from the beginning through high school was quarterly...meaning we had the same class the entire year, but received quarterly grades. "Marking periods."

Same here. It's just two semester at U Toronto

 

[cookiecutter]

I have some classes that go through both semesters so it won't be completely different come next semester

Oh, nevermind. That's how my grade school was. I thought we were talking about having entire classes within the span of 9 weeks.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

I guess I'm still unclear on what you guys mean by "quarterly". The way you talk about it, it sounds like you actually got class credit each quarter, and if you failed one quarter you could just go back and retake it. Somehow I doubt that's what you really mean, though.

Listening to Nile and grabbing some coffee

Usual Tuesday routine.....bleh.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Same here. Thought I like my English and Ethics classes a lot, so yeah.

Relaxing after my daily run, and eating some Fruit & Fibre.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

I was going to go shopping last night, but my car wouldn't start (battery terminals are apparently worn out). So, until I can get a ride out to an auto part store, I'm stuck eating ramen for breakfast, and having to use shampoo for soap.

Explain this Trocadero stuff...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trocadero_(drink)

Its a classic swedish soft drink, the first swedish produced non cola flavoured soft drink to include caffeine. Also the best soft drink in the world!

Listening to the Dethalbum. I approve, but I want the coffee jingle!!!

Feeling good I got a 39/40 on my Astronomy assignment (in which I got to mention Wormed ) and about to head to my History tutorial in 10 minutes

Being soggy

Been standing in a wet bus stop for a late bus. There for about 35 minutes, playing Yellow Everything (Yellow car, but as the name suggests, punching for everything) and managed to punch a metal bar when someone pushed my punch away.
