  • Because Unicorns Aren’t Real

    Hello and welcome! This is the sixth welcome-to-my-blog post I’ve written in 13 years, with each of the previous websites receiving the Henry VIII treatment. I hope website #6 can draw inspiration from old Henry’s sixth and not suffer an unnatural end. This website is going to be a brain dump of sorts, with subjects…

  • Because Unicorns Aren’t Real

    Hello and welcome! This is the sixth welcome-to-my-blog post I’ve written in 13 years, with each of the previous websites receiving the Henry XIII treatment. I hope website #6 can draw inspiration from old Henry’s sixth and not suffer an unnatural end. This website is going to be a brain dump of sorts, with subjects…

My 5-string bass, a Sire Marcus Miller V7 Swamp Ash just arrived from @musicians.cart. The giant neck and tiny frets might take some getting used to; but it is pretty much exactly what I wanted. This has the highest natural treble of any bass guitar I've tried or heard online (and that's before the on-board preamp or my Valeton Dapper Bass pedal); and it's snappy without me having to dig in too much. I decided to co-locate my coffee bar onto some shelves in my music studio. The kettle isn't where the electronics are, for obvious reasons. Regardless, it is pretty fab, isn't it? I don't think I have room for any more brewers. I've everything I need 😄 @earthboundbiscuit designed this beautiful guitar wall for our living room in Bangalore. It has one guitar of each type (electric, classical, acoustic, and bass). Hers (the right handed instruments) are in active duty; mine (left-handed) are instruments whose action is a bit too high to my liking (and can't be fixed). I'm supposed to be "working" from home. But half my office makes me no money and instead swallows up all my savings. Say hello to the Rhino Studio! Here's a couple of guitars I never should've owned; but I do. Here's Andromeda, @earthboundbiscuit's epic space themed Stratocaster. I visited Abhi Falls, Madikeri with @earthboundbiscuit and photographed every single creepy dustbin there. I don't remember where I ate this but I'm sharing it here because it was tasty. I made a little terrarium for a few succulents, some of @earthboundbiscuit's art, and misc toys that come inside a Kinder Joy.
