  1. My brother had an experience like yours. He bought a westinghouse 47 inch from bestbuy because it was "cheap". The first one had dead pixels, the second one had alot of color bleeding. and the third one had more dead pixels. I finally made him spend like 200 bucks more and get a Pioneer. No problems at all. Some brands of TV's are really iffy sometimes.

    That's a shame.. I have one of the nicer Westinghouse 32" models and it works great.

  2. The graphite nut confuses the shit out of me though; won't that wear like hell?

    Graphite nuts are really popular in guitars with trems. The slickness of the graphite is supposed to keep the string from getting "stuck" in the nut and going out of tune with excess use of the whammy bar.

    I'd imagine it would help tuning stability a bit in a non-trem guitar, too. I've never heard of any wear issue.

  3. Dude, don't go with the Valve Junior. They're cool amps, I have the head version, but the Roland is overall a much better amp. The only control on the VJ is volume, it's gonna get rather annoying very fast.

    You can't compare a SS Fender with a tube Marshall. A tube amp is almost always gonna sound "better", especially if its a nice Marshall, compared to a SS amp. Sure, the VJ is tube, but it has one preamp tube and one poweramp tube, and a volume control.. you don't have any power over the tone, other than the tone knob on your guitar.
