Now that's more like it...

My wife received her new iPhone this weekend, and, as a result, I inherited her old phone - which is quite an upgrade from the old iPhone 3G I bought in 2009 - it was already obsolete back then...
 
I use those things to play MP3 and take pictures only, so I was in no hurry to upgrade. 
 
I dig that I finally can post a clearer picture of the natural relic'ing process my SG, though. :P Nothing remotely close to good quality, but definitely an improvement.
 

 
And now that I can join the rest of the human race and do the panorama thingie, it's also much easier to get a picture of a room that doesn't look suffocating. 
 

 
:)

Photoshop?

Looks like there should be wall torches in there! 

Truth is I just can't work unless the room is clean and tidy. Since I spend the bulk of my time here and I'm the only one working in this room, it's actually pretty simple to just keep things clean.
 
It's not as if the room also served another purpose, and I make sure that nothing that doesn't belong here doesn't enter the room, so that it doesn't end up serving as a storage space for stuff that has no place in the rest of the house.
 
CraigB - you mean like those? :P

I saw the candle (though you'd need more than one - below is a good candle holder), but I mean wall torch.  They've got some nice fake ones. 
 

 
Cool candle holders, the second one matches what you have!
 

These in black instead of silver would be cool.
 
Meh.  I'm not finding pictures that match what I'm thinking of...  Maybe you just need to turn on your lava lamp!

natural relic'ing

The best kind.

Now, what I don't understand is this. When Fender knock a new guitar about, sand the paint off and generally beat it up, that makes it a "relic" which is worth more, so I should expect to pay more for it.

But when I "naturally relic" a Fender by, well, actually playing it and gigging it for years, I'm told that's "damage" which makes the guitar worth less so I should expect to get less for it if I sell or trade it.

Why is damage inflicted by a master luthier worth more than damage inflicted by me?

Are those Alesis monitors (I assume there's another one on the other side) any good ? I been thinking of getting a couple of M1 MKII's  http://alesis.com/m1activemkii

I do like them, for what they are - a decent pair of desktop speakers. I'm not sure how they'd compare to similar offerings by M-Audio and such, but I do find them useful when it's time to check a mix.
