BILL LAWRENCE L500L

 

I was thinking of changing the pickups because I wanted to get a crunchy sound out of my guitar, and I remembered that I had a Bill Lawrence L500XL on my old Cherry Flying V that I used to use, so I put it on an unidentified Canasibari Les Paul, as I wrote the other day. I found something like this in my room.



Bill Lawrence's L500L, a pickup that's a step below the L500XL in power.


That's right. I forgot to mention that before I put the L500XL on that guitar, I used to put the L500L on the Flying V. That's right. I forgot about the L500L before I put the L500XL in that guitar. As I recall, the L500L was a great pickup that had a nice, clean sound and could be crunchy when distorted, but I wondered what would happen if it had the same sound and more power, so I put the L500XL in there. As it turned out, the L500XL had more power, but it wasn't as sharp as the L500L, and I don't think it was as good as the L500XL.


However, Bill Lawrence's pickups have a very peculiar sound (the middle part of the pickup is very special). But when it doesn't work, it's just not good enough.


So I decided to take the L500XL off my Flying V and put it on my Kanashibari Les Paul.



A Canasibari Les Paul like a carp on a cutting board.


Yes, these days I leave all this kind of work to the professionals. I haven't used a soldering iron for years.


I wonder what it will sound like. It's been a long time since I've had this kind of excitement!

Withdrawal of the preamble

 

The word "foretelling" is there to be withdrawn, and the word "two words" reads "otoko.


Last week, on today, i.e., November 2, 2020, or simply the 306th day after the beginning of the year on the Gregorian calendar, the day commonly known as the day Donus ascended to the papacy, I wrote in this note, "My fourth and final appearance on Nara TV's ROCK ON L7, and I'm coming to the end of my life.


Yes, I even wrote about it.


But, you know, I thought Kanashibari was finished last week, but after today, it's going to continue to appear in the show. Yay! What did I just say? A man always has two words for you!


I love Nara. What I love is that I love Nara. I wish I could live in Nara too!


Whenever I think of Nara, I think of Gyoza no Ousho (Gyoza King's Restaurant) that we stopped at on our way to Nara for a tour. I remember that someone ordered a plate of karaage (fried food) and it came with salt and pepper on the side. It's not so surprising that salt or pepper is attached to a fried food, but I had never been to Gyoza no Ousho before, so I was surprised at the fact that the arrangement of the dish is quite different in each restaurant, even though it is a chain restaurant.


I'm very fond of Osho. What I love is that I love Osho. Last week we went there and the food was really good!


11/9 26:30- Nara TV "ROCK ON L7


So wait until 26:30 today while you eat your dumplings! Thank you, people in the Nara area.

"Madness in the midnight sun" is now available


 Hakuya. It is usually read as "Byakuya", but did you know that it is originally read as "Hakuya"? Over time, however, this and that have made me think that I can just go ahead and do it. It's amazing, isn't it?


Speaking of Byakuya, of course, HANOI ROCKS' "Byakuya's Tragedy" is the first song on their first album and one of their most famous songs. It's the first song on their memorable first album, and it's a representative song. By the way, the official title of the album is "Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes", but the Japanese title is "Violence in the White Night". It's amazing. Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes" is "Violence in the White Night". Now that I think about it, it sounds like a song title from Canasibari. That's what made me fall in love with HANOI ROCKS, isn't it? I'm not the one who gave it a Japanese title, though. But I have to take my hat off to the person who came up with the Japanese title. I wish there was some kind of app that converts words into Japanese like that.


That's why we can't afford to lose to Kanashibari. To compete with Byakuya, of course, it's Byakuya. We've just released "Madness in the midnight sun" on Youtube!



What do you think? Isn't it amazing? It looks like Hanoi will soon be taking over the title of "Midnight Sun" from me.


The song was released today, but it's not a new song. The song has been around since very early on, and I think it's probably either the first or second track of the limited edition single that Kanashibari released.


That said, it's a lot different from the previous ones. The sound is, of course, very different, but the arrangement is also very different. If you don't know what the "old one" was, go to various distribution sites and search for "Byakuya ni Kyoue" and listen to it to compare!


And now we're looking forward to your channel registration and support!

Plus or minus five steps back

 

Surprisingly, the time is 22:23 now.


I usually write this note around 5:00 p.m. these days, but I noticed that it's already this late.


I've been literally spending all my time on something these days, and I've been literally spending all my time on it from this morning as well. I'm not joking at all, I saw it in my dreams yesterday and the day before yesterday. Oh no! Someone do something about it!


However, I'm making progress, although I'm taking turtle steps. But when you take one step forward, you take 0.9 steps back, or in some cases, you don't realize you're taking two steps back for every one step forward, and you think you've taken five steps forward, but you're actually taking ten steps back. No, if you take 5 steps forward and 10 steps back, you're plus or minus 5 steps back.


Well, that's about it.


Speaking of which, I was thinking about changing the pickups because I wanted to get more of a zacky sound on the guitar, and I thought, "I'll have to pick the pickups again! I was so excited to see what I was going to do, but then I remembered something.


I had an old Cherry Tokai Flying V with a Bill Lawrence L500XL on it, and it made a zakuzak sound. It's more like a machete cut. But it's not very sticky.


So, I'm going to remove the L500XL from my Flying V and put it on the unidentified Kanashibari Les Paul.

Curvature


 I have one placed mirror in my room, and I noticed that the reflection in that mirror is slightly shorter vertically and slightly longer horizontally. In other words, that mirror surface is shaped like a tucked-in belly just a little bit.


I don't know if it was originally like that or if it gradually transformed after I bought it, though I bought it at the 100-yen store, which everyone loves.


I don't know if it was like that originally, or if it has been gradually deformed since we bought it, but it looks scary. It's probably just a little bit curved, so I don't feel uncomfortable when I see my face in the mirror, but when I see my face in that mirror, the impression I get is very different and I'm scared.


But when I tried to reflect my face in various parts of the mirror, I felt something strange about it. It seems to be not a perfect, beautiful curve.


If you think about it, you can't see your own face directly, so when you do see it, it's always the reflection of something else, right? A mirror or a photograph or an image. But that reflection isn't always a little bit curved or exactly the way it should be, like in this mirror.


What do I really look like?
