Switching from Nylon Strings to Steel

Image
What if you're a classical guitarist wanting steel strings with a wide neck?  The best way to go with that is the Takamine F-312 s (see pic), which is out of  production. It's not cheap either, but well worth the price. Actually, once  a person owns this guitar, it's unlikely that they would ever sell it. You can't  go wrong with that guitar and well worth the effort to shop around for it,  including using eBay.   The old Martin 0-16 , which the F312 s copies, cost  a minimum upwards of 2 grand.  It's essentially a classical guitar made for  steel strings.   If you have 2 grand to spend, consider the Takamine EF740F S . But what if you want a big bodied guitar or even an electric guitar with a  wide neck for less than $2,000? I experimented by stringing just 6 strings on an old, cheap Guild 12 string guitar. It panned out to be a successful procedure yielding a wide neck guitar with steel strings, wh...

Diet - tame the wolf to maximize energy

Image
Fat people avoid exercise Fat people eat sugar Fat people wolf their food.   I fasted for 3 days, once, when I was in junior college.   On that 3rd day, I stopped being tired and hungry, and I felt full of energy. What happened was my digestive system stopped drawing energy to digest because there was nothing left to digest.  It was a eye-opening lesson in how much energy it takes to digest food.  Eating slower means the food is chewed more thoroughly.  It's the opposite of wolfing down your food.  Unchewed food takes more energy, and stomach acid, to digest.    I think it's the usual cause of sluggishness.  During 20013-14 when I lost weight,  I experimented with chewing food until there was nothing left to chew.   It takes quite a long time.   Surprisingly, there is flavor in the tiniest of morsels left in the mouth during chewing.   After a while I get bored with chewing and become ...

From Fahrenheit to Centigrade and back Again

Image
My memory is so bad. It sputters, coughs & wheezes up surprising stuff, appearing out of a fog, or washed up on the beach like they were messages in a bottle. It occured to me that my ol' dad told me, probably 40 years ago, an easy formula for converting between Fahrenheit and Centigrade. I got depressed because I knew wouldn't ever remember it, but then it came to me within a minute or two, after I stopped straining my brain. Here it is: Whatever temp you have, in either Centigrade or Fahrenheit, add 40 to the number. (I recalled the number 32 at first, incorrectly, and found that value generated had an error of a few degrees.) After adding 40, multiply by either 5/9 or 9/5. If you want to convert Fahrenheit into Centigrade, multiply by 5/9. Then subtract that same 40. That will be your converted temperature. [(F + 40) 5/9] - 40 = C is the formula for converting F into C. [(C + 40) 9/5] - 40 = F is the formula for converting C into F. For ea...
