[HIMYNAMEISARTHUR]

u guys noe where to get it?i want one but cant seem to find it..

 

[trianglebiscuit]

you can try ordering online?

anyway, dont those stuff prevent you from palm-muting?

 

[SoulJah]

Guitar Connection or Davis should have these in stock.

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

May I be so curious as to why you would want to attach such an object to your gutar?

 

[jbarks]

improve your tone! :twisted:

 

[lightice]

It has NO effect on the guitar's performance.

Its named ASHTRAY for a reason, it was so useless smokers used it as an ashtray.

 

[jbarks]

i think somebody took my post too seriously..

i've had basses with ashtray covers as well; i know what they are and why they're called what they are

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

Yeah, exactly, because if the threadstarter has no other intention of adding that part to his guitar apart from cosmetic reasons, then I would dissuade him from doing so because:

1. no addition to tone
2. would actually hinder palm-muting
3. damn embarassing if during gig, half-way the part fall out
4. might tarnish
5. you won't have any other use for it, that is if you're not a smoker :lol:

well, its not all that bad. at least it protects your saddles from rust if you have sweaty palms.

 

[kzy]

and and and keep dust away!! ahahas...changing strings will take more time..u spend 10sec more to take out the ashtray~~ and if u r amoker..u can store those ashes in the ashtry to give the tone more thicker..








*April Fool* !!

heh, do all guitarer like to palm mute or cant live without palm mute?

 

[markedymark]

[PatheinRaindropMoe]

djung djung djung chuggah chuggah djung djungdjung!!

 

[markedymark]

moe captured the entire essence of chugging in one line, :lol:

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

Well, palm-muting / chugga chugga is just one of those things that lend to your playing a different sense of dynamics. So rather than inhibit it, why not just leave the option open to those who want to take it?

I can almost see the sweat stains accumulating on the ashtray... 8O

 

[markedymark]

the sweat stains are quite a disturbing thought actually.

 

[PatheinRaindropMoe]

heh, come to think about it, the sweat stain on the ashtray is so much easy to clean than havin the sweat stain on the saddle, in between saddle, saddle screw etc

 

[markedymark]

yeah thats true, but can you imagine it pooling in there :?

 

[HIMYNAMEISARTHUR]

its cos of the rust on my saddles..quite un sight ly mah so wana cover it..n plus it is an accessory for mia start so tot might be cool to hav one for novelty value..

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

Dude, for the cost of buying a original replacement part, you'd might as well invest in better, non-rusting saddles.
