Guitarists:

I’m supposed to be picking up my brand new Yamaha FG800J acoustic guitar tomorrow, and I have a question. I have seen multiple comments that I should consider replacing the strings with either Elixir or D’Addario 12-53 phosphor bronze strings. Something like that.

I’m sure it’s not entirely necessary, but is it worth spending another $20?

Just tell me if it’s worth it or a waste. I’m a beginner and don’t know shit. OTOH, it’s only $20.

Luthier is a rather big game. Not quite the biggest table hog I have, but with max players I'd be close.

Only fit one game in since we were learning along the way, but initial impressions are I like it and would play again (particularly because I got trounced due to some truly bad decisions). Lots of familiar concepts from Ark Nova and Apiary with a few nice twists. Very thematic too, which I like.

Going to be shitty weather here today, and I'm waiting for a package I need to sign for, so it's going to be boardgame day!

I haven't tried the latest Wingspan expansion and I just picked up Luthier.

It was such an indescribable honour to have a choir perform one of my compositions and to perform it with them with such wonderfully talented musicians. Photo by The Mollusc Dimension.
