Great question. Addressed in the video at 0:56.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I have moved away from pomades like this in recent years because they contain petrolatum (a petroleum distillate), which is not great for the hair or scalp. I'm using stuff with better quality ingredients now like Johnny Slicks and some others (reviewed on this channel). I used Murrays for years though. The website lists aloe, lanolin and coconut oil. You could try emailing the manufacturer at [email protected]. Good luck.

German leather would DEF fit this watch. I wear it a lot for work in a hospital though, so leather wouldn't work well for me in THAT environment...too much hand-washing and germs. That's why I usually opt for NATOS or Watch Steward straps. But for home...definitely. Let me know if there's some German leather strap brands I should check out. Appreciate you checking in, man. God bless!

Haha! That's great! I feel like that title fits my life.

Thanks, Maverick! Appreciate your support of my channel. More to come, so please subscribe. Numbers 6:24-26.

What's the value? Check out their website: www.lostdutchmanleather.com. As far as the value to me...outstanding. I'm still using this wallet 3 years later.

Who knows? I'm surprised they're still around with all the new (and sometimes better) pomades on the market these days.

Thanks for subscribing, PeeWee! I appreciate the support. Wow...this one is back in my old crib. More reviews to come. I have a bunch of stuff in the can (see what I did there?)...I just have to get it edited and published. I've been slacking, working a lot and getting back into skateboarding.

I think I would largely agree. If you are doing a real greaser look, the oil-based would be great, but for me, these days, I'm liking the water based and the Formula 49. It depends on the situation for me. If I'm throwing something in dry hair, I'll go for the Formula 49. If I'm jumping out of a shower, I'll probably use the water-based. I really like the Alpha water based. It doesn't seem to be too strong of a scent. Never used the Omega. I agree: they seem to have something for everyone. Thanks for sharing your experience here and for supporting my channel. Please subscribe if you'd like to see more reviews. I'm a little behind on content but have a bunch of stuff in the pipeline.

I've always been able to regrow my hair. Haha. The Lord has been good to me.

Nope. The brand was YaeTek. I tried to find one that wasn't made in China, but no luck, so I just bought one of the highest rated ones on Amazon.

Haha. Thanks, homie.

Dude that would be dope. I would def buy some for that. I can't stand most mainstream colognes. But I would wear this scent for sure.

@@prodigaljess yes it has just the right amount of burnt vanilla mixed with that smoky scent it's mouth watering to me I hate that I love it so much lol they really made a good bar I just hope they at least make a deodorant out of it or even better make it a whole line like buffalo trace

@@eriksatterfield4755 That's a great idea! Drop them an email and make the suggestion. Maybe they'll take you up on it.

Nice. Are you going to post about that Warmoth build on your channel? Or are you maybe on TDPRI? I would love to check that out.

Nice, man! Enjoy! Thanks for dropping by! Sub for more content.

Thank you so much, my friend. God bless you and yours.

They are great pickups for a ridiculously low price. I've heard great things about Harley Benton teles. Are they made in Japan or China? If the former, I would consider trying one one day. Hope that setup works out well for you. Twang on, my friend!

@@prodigaljess Japanese guitars are nearly as premium made/priced as USA...from there you have Korean, Mexican, and the next level down in QA/price point are Indonesian, China, and Vietnam. My HB is made in China. It's neck is as good as any USA Fender I've owned. Impressive. If I hadn't just repurchased (today) a MIM Tele I sold to a friend a few years ago, I would have bought a righty and a lefty TE-62 for me and my player son...saved on shipping and still under $400! Such a deal....

@@lazvt8469 Definitely sounds like a bargain and I've heard nothing but good things about their quality. I hope you make some incredible music with it. I don't mind buying from Japan, Korea, Mexico, Vietnam or Indonesia, but I try to avoid buying anything from China as much as possible...primarily due to religious persecution of Christians, Muslims and the Falun Gong by their government, as well as, more recently, political and military aggression by them towards the United States. Nothing but love for the Chinese people, though. In fact, the Christian church is exploding there, with one of the fastest growing Christian populations in the world...and they have to practice on the DL there...meeting in underground churches and carefully witnessing by word of mouth. It's very socially dangerous to be a Christian there, but more and more are converting. Very inspiring. It's pretty rad that your son plays too. You guys can bond through music. Priceless. Stay solid, my friend.

@@lazvt8469 Hey, thanks for stopping by. I don't dispute the quality of Asian import guitars (which has improved significantly over the last several decades...Mexico has always been pretty good and I've owned/tried great stuff from Japan and Korea too). And I have no problem buying stuff made in other countries, generally, though I give first preference to USA made because it supports American jobs and the American economy. But I try not to buy from China as much as possible, not because I have any beef with the Chinese people...I don't...but because their government oppresses their own people with a surveillance state and because they persecute people of faith (particularly Christians, which I also am, but also Muslims and the Falun Gong). Their government has also engaged in spying, intellectual property theft, and currency/import manipulation to give themselves an unfair advantage over the United States and other countries. Finally, they have threatened Taiwan with military aggression. It feels irresponsible to buy from countries like China when they are being international bad actors...especially when there are other options available, which, in most cases, there are. Just my two cents on why I try not to buy Chinese stuff. Appreciate you stopping by.

Original and Rugged are my two favorite scents by them, especially in their oil-based pomades. Definitely recommend. Very pleasant, masculine scent. How long it lasts will depend on how much you use and how often. I don't know if it's because I''m using better quality pomades or because I don't do crazy-high pomps anymore, but I find I use a lot less than I used to use when I used old-school stuff like Murrays and Royal Crown. Plus, I have about 4 or 5 pomades I actively rotate through so it makes it even harder to gauge how long stuff is lasting. Grab some and try it. I know it's more expensive than other brands, but it's worth it. I usually keep some cheaper stuff (like Duke Cannon water-based) for days when I'm not getting all catted out and keep the more expensive ones (Like Johnny Slicks Black Label) for special occasions.

@@prodigaljess awesome thanks for the reply

I imagine the steel are brighter (maybe not as bright or present as titanium) and possibly have a sharper attack. 100% on metal chemistry/quality across brands. I had some Wilkinson brass that sounded nowhere near this good. If you stick with any of the better brands, you should be good. PLT is the most affordable, but I'm told Callahan, Rutters and Glendale all make excellent brass saddles too, I understand. Never tried the Gotoh brass...they might be decent too. Thanks for dropping by. Consider dropping a sub as I post new stuff all the time. Have a couple of new pedals in that will get reviewed soon.

Definitely. They are so fun. You can practice them moving or standing still. The trick is getting your feet in the right spots and keeping your upper body still (especially your head and your arms) and using your hips to balance. It's hard to explain. Andy Anderson swears you can "manual forever" and Dan Corrigan seems to prove this out, but you have to get that muscle memory/balance going. Dan has a video on manuals where he literally rides one out for blocks. It's insane. Don't remember if it was a regular manual or a nose manual. Sergio Santoro is really good at manuals too (and no complies...oh man, that cat has no complies that DO NOT COMPLY!)

Haha. Thanks, homie. I'm a work in progress. I'm just thankful to God I can still skate.

Haha. Nice. Appreciate you stopping by. Please consider subscribing. I put new stuff up all the time. Have a great new year!

Thanks, Michael. I really appreciate the encouragement. Yeah, I cover a lot of topics on this channel, but serving and sharing the Lord is closest to my heart. Only one life will soon be passed; only what's done for Christ will last. God bless you, my friend. Numbers 6:24-26.

Amen brother,and thank you for your reaction.@@prodigaljess

@@TheGuitarman708 Yeah, man. Sub for more content.

Aww, thanks, Darcie. Yes, the Lord Jesus has done some considerable work in this sinner's heart since then. And I'm so grateful. In a sense we are all called to ministry through the Great Commission. Wherever we are and whatever we do, our workplace, our family and our friend groups are mission fields. There are people there who need to be ministered to...some of whom will never set foot in a church otherwise. We might be the only ones they might listen to about the Good News. Therefore, grow where you are planted and ask the Lord to make you fruitful. Seek to live like Christ, bring Him up in conversation regularly, be accountable and servant-hearted and share Him when the Holy Spirit leads you. He truly makes the willing heart fruitful. Isaiah 6:8. God bless you, sister. I appreciate the encouragement. Proverbs 27:17.

Nice! Enjoy your Thursdays...everyday! Appreciate the support. Please subscribe if you haven't already. I'm putting up new stuff all the time. Have a great new year, Grant.

Haha...Once is probably enough for that model. I don't know what else I can say about it. I haven't purchased any more brushes lately. But stay tuned. I'm reviewing new stuff all the time. Thanks for supporting my channel.

Yes! Love them. They sound fantastic on this guitar.

Hey, thanks for dropping by. To be honest, I haven't tried to get a gain setting on the amp on its own. I have turned up the input gain (which seems to primarily add compression) and it does get close to breakup at higher settings, but this is not what I would call a gainy amp. It does take pedals well, though, as evidenced when I demoed my new Don Mare pickups running a Tumnus into it. You can check out that video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pdicbJijxrSUYZ8.html. I have a separate video with the old set of pickups also through this setup. Hope this helps.

Not sure what they're currently going for. Check their website.

5/16". I like the additional mass of the larger saddles. I would only go to 1/4" if I had to set my saddles super low and they were bottoming out on the bridge plate. If you don't have an overly curvaceous neck radius (like 7.25"), you should be ok with 5/16".

@@prodigaljess thanks for the reply. I ended up going with the 5/16, they fit great and the string height and action is spot on. I’m glad I picked these and not the 1/4 size. I just installed them on Friday and I am really impressed. Definitely a big improvement over my old Fender vintage non compensated saddles. Thanks for posting these videos, it was very helpful in my situation and I appreciate it. These saddles from Philadelphia Luthier Tools are way better than the Gotoh ones I tried. A great upgrade to my telecaster for sure. By the way I like the warmth and balance of brass so I went with all 3 brass saddles. Thanks again. ✌🏻

@@brianrollins7275 Nice, brother. Glad they worked out for you. Keep cool and twang on! Feel free to sub for more content.

Man, sorry to hear that, Tony. Hopefully the new ones will be better for you. Mine had virtually flawless fit and finish. My biggest gripe with them is the hook eyelets at the to of the boot. They are not comfortable, especially when the boots are new and breaking in and they press into my leg. Other than that, I feel the same way. I'm not overly conscious of them as a shoe. Can't say that about many casual/dress leather shoes/boots. I may have my cobbler remove the hooks and replace them with standard eyelets.

Hey, thanks, man! Appreciate that. Nope. Same pots, caps and electronics. I use 250k pots for all my teles. I think I tried 500k once and found them a bit too bright.

Yup! Best 30 bucks I've spent since becoming a watch geek. It basically pays for itself with the money you save from going to a watch repair to get it adjusted (most times when a watch speeds up or stops keeping accurate time, it's become magnetized). Highly recommend.

@@prodigaljess thank you for the 1 st reply. I got the slightly upgraded on the demagnetizer and timegrapher and it solved my issue. If you travel for your profession the mechanical movement will be more of an issue than quarts. Having said that mechanical is less g h e y

For sure. I kept hoping another tractor museum would grab a bunch of it. Apparently they tried to get the McCormick family to buy it for a museum, but got no response. Whoever bought these pieces got some great equipment in excellent condition.

Thanks, Cameron! Yes, it's been great overall. Very comfortable and the holes are holding up really nicely...better than some others I've tried. I think I'll be a little more adventurous with the color next time. It has frayed a bit...maybe I'm hard on them with all my hand washing and handling patients and machinery in my work (x-ray). But a little "barbering" and it's good as new. I don't order much from across the pond, but had a great experience with WCS, so thank you for that!

Wow! Thanks so much for the encouragement. I always wonder how it's going over because my content is so varied and diverse. I appreciate the encouragement. Injinji...I will look into them. They sound intriguing, look interesting and have some options in Merino wool. Thanks for the tip and for your support of my channel!

Haha! I LOVE Ben's channel. He puts out some fantastic content...and I'm a little jealous of how good he is for an "old-guy skater" as he calls himself. I'd be happy with a fraction of his ability. He makes some great points in his video for sure. I guess we're on different sides of the issue...and clearly, spacers are not for everyone, it seems. But thank you for checking in. I'm honored to have my video in the same discussion as one by someone like Ben, who I've admired (and subscribed to) for several years now.

It's all in your mind

Nice! Always glad to have another believer aboard! God bless, my friend!

Nothing BUT good stuff in here. They make killer products. Everything I've tried of theirs is excellent. I really appreciate your support and encouragement, my friend. It's in part because of you and your sneaky candid video of me playing jazz that I even considered starting a channel. I'm forever grateful to you for that.

They are! My feet stay dry in them and they don't smell typically at the end of the day. It's only happened a couple of times when I had an intense day at work and wore high tops that day. Generally, the wick moisture away and allow your feet to breathe. You can wear them for days on end without them smelling. They'd be great for camping or multi-day hikes. Honestly, I'm ready to donate what's left of my cotton socks. It's really hard to go back after trying wool. Thank you for the prayers. I don't know what I had...they tested me for COVID, Flu and Strep. All negative. Whatever it was, I felt crummy for a couple days and then had this chest congestion and cough for about a month after. Miserable. As you can see, I nearly died here trying to bring you guys this video. But the Lord is good and delivered me. Prayer works!

@jessewolf855 I'm glad you're doing better. I ended up with the same cold about a day after I prayed for you. I was misreable for about 3 days. Praise God, it didn't keep me down long. Thanks for the feedback. I love wool socks, but they can be pricey or can be unbreathable. Please let me know if you come across any decent deals. I am trying out some wool ankle running socks. I am also looking for a dependable brand for wool based compression socks. God bless!

@@user-xp2vz6lv7g Wool compression socks? Those sound interesting. The compression socks I've used have been non-wool varieties...and they smell terrible after a day of wear. The compression doesn't hang around long either. Let me know if you find some and maybe I'll review them. Some wool socks breathe better than others. Depends on the thickness and the weave. I have found some thinner ones that are more comfortable for wear on hotter days or in hotter shoes (like a high-top). The ones I recently got from Sleet and Sole fall into this category. I did do a review on them on here. Wow. You prayed for me and then got the same cold? Talk about "bearing one another's burdens"! Glad you're feeling better. Numbers 6:24-26.

I might have to give it another try. I went down the Johnny Slicks rabbit hole and it's been hard to get out. I haven't used this one in some months. Have to pull it out again.

Nice. Yeah, this is the Peaky Blinders model. I could probably pull off the Shelby too. I was looking at the cotton Shelby b/c it's hot as blazes here in FL right now. But, surprisingly, the wool cap is not bad for casual daily wear here. I wouldn't wear it for a long walk in the sun or any kind of exertion, but it's fine for a trip to a restaurant or the store.

If you pull off the peaky, then the Shelby would work..., just a bit smaller. Actually, I have 3 Shelby's, the Rambler and now the Peaky. Very nice caps. May look at a Fiddler cap next. The Rambler is quilted (heavily) making an awesome winter cap for these parts (Kentucky). But the Shelby's and Peaky's aren't, so you can get some wear time even on the hot days. Thanks for the conversation.@@prodigaljess
