Resonance over years aligns molecules and improves tone of those very special vintage instruments. That includes 40yr old drums! Luckily musicians aren't physicists, so... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are made of blend of of some kind of resin with wood chips. That's why they survived for so long. They were in very humid conditions for months at a time.They don't sound as good as ones made of pure wood, but they certainly can survive a lot longer, and have their own unique sound. I like them, and I like the sound. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And re: the clarinet discussion above, Buffet had a "Green line" R13 (R13 is the good kind) in the 90's that was essentially your Swingstars - grenadilla wood chips mashed up with resin and formed into the shape of a clarinet. they were super inexpensive and, imo (& others too), really really nice clarinets! they had resonance, which you don't get from any kind of plastic instrument, but they weren't stupid expensive either. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Rhiadra Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 This was my Saturday: setting up. I've done too many of these this year. And the irony is that they take away time from actually making images, which is what I really enjoy doing. It's lovely being asked, but I need to learn how to say "no" occasionally. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Istelathis Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) I've been getting back into Cyberpunk 2077 as of late, so I have been in that frame of mind. Picture taken from FireStorm, no edits just how great of a place HillVale makes for pictures.

FYI, Zadig seems to have a lot of their skyboxes (and maybe other things too for the weekend) on sale right now. I picked up one lovely one already for L$60 and need to go back later today. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitlin Tobias Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I had the honour of meeting world-renowned pro-skater Huckleberry Hax, who, despite his fame, exuded modesty and shyness. He graciously took the time to pose for a photo with me! 11 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
