![]() ![]() It sounds less ‘boomy’ than some full-size acoustics thanks to its size and delivers crisp and clear tones. The body shape is nice and slim too, with a cutaway that gives you easy access to the upper frets of the guitar. It’s still easy to play for beginners though thanks to its slim neck profile that encourages fast playing. The fretboard of the APXT2 feels slightly wider than that which you’d typically find on a 3/4 acoustic guitar, meaning it will suit players used to a full-sized instrument. Since then they’ve been a constant in schools and other educational institutions, with many guitarists cutting their teeth on a Yamaha acoustic. Yamaha has a fantastic reputation in the beginner’s market, having given us the now-classic CS range of nylon-strung acoustic guitars. Something to bear in mind if your arms are particularly long. ![]() ![]() Although the Faith Nomad Mini-Neptune is an all-star guitar, the scale length may just be too short for some players to get along with. The precision chrome tuners offer just that, precise tuning accuracy and stability. Rounding off an impressive display is its hardware. The Neptune-mini has a Fishman Sonicore preamp and Isys T pickup, meaning its dynamic, warm timbre is translated incredibly accurately when amplified. A top-notch quality gig bag is a testament to the company's exceedingly good value for money. Picking up a fully solid acoustic for under $500 is incredibly great value, something Faith’s main competitors haven’t done in a long time. ![]() Inspired by their jumbo body style, the Neptune, this 3/4 electro-acoustic is a fully solid mahogany guitar that delivers a rich, woody tone. Although modeled from traditional acoustic body styles, Faith’s body shape naming system is taken from our solar system, hence all the space age references. The brainchild of renowned luthier Patrick James Eggle, Faith isn’t afraid to explore new frontiers and create unique instruments using lesser-known yet high-quality materials. While not the biggest name on the market, Faith has earned itself an interstellar reputation for producing exceptional quality instruments. Read the full Martin LX1E review Best for beginners The smaller, boxy tone sometimes associated with a 3/4 size acoustic is merely a distant concern when amplified, and the LX1E could have you surprised by rivaling its bigger-bodied brethren. However, thanks to the Fishman Sonitone pickup, it’s when you plug it in that this guitar really shines. The Martin LX1E is louder than a lot of other 3/4 acoustic guitars, with a clear and defined tone. That width doesn’t take away from the sleek feel of the neck, however, and it will still feel cozy enough for old and younger players alike. Having made acoustics for over 180 years, with Martin Guitars comes a time-tested adherence to quality, so you know you’re getting a guitar of the highest order when you purchase.Īlthough the LX1E has a short scale length, the fretboard width is roughly the same as a full-size acoustic, meaning it will feel familiar to those who own or have owned bigger guitars. Initially made famous by Ed Sheeran, the Martin LX1E ‘Little Martin’ is one of the most popular 3/4 acoustic guitars ever made. ![]()

The real question to ask yourself is if you will make best use of this freedom, because the other Logitech webcams offer the same great performance and software but can be bought for AU$100 cheaper than the Sphere's AU$249 price tag. The Logitech Sphere produces the same high quality results we found in the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 and the QuickCam Pro for Notebooks, and offers users the freedom to move with auto-focus and its motorised lens with automatic face tracking. Even in low-light environments the Sphere managed to focus well and produce a warm, if artificial-looking, image. The auto-focus function works well in unison with the motorised automatic tracking if you intend to move around the frame while you speak. The titular auto-focus feature also works a treat, but as with the camera's picture quality, we found we achieved the best results by switching to manual. We did find we could achieve better results by tweaking the picture manually, but for users who want a thought-free automatic experience, the Logitech Sphere delivers. Installation is completely painless, and the automatic settings work a treat. The Sphere is the leading webcam in this latest range of Logitech cams featuring 2-megapixel image sensors and Carl Zeis optics, and as with its siblings, the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 and the QuickCam Pro for Notebooks, the image quality is outstanding and works beautifully straight out of the box. You'd have thought the novelty of transforming into a talking shark would become tired at some point, but we still found ourselves cracking up as we metamorphosed, and were genuinely impressed with the accuracy of the motion tracking. The Sphere can rotate over 180 degrees horizontally and 109 degrees vertically, which we found more than sufficient for conducting important conference calls and for recording our video blogs.Īs with most webcams on the shelves next to the Sphere in computer stores, this Logitech cam comes bundled with software, which not only calibrates the camera's video and audio settings, but also features a range of goofy motion-trackable animations.

At times, he appears before the other Thundercats as well such as when facing down Grune the Destroyer's ghost and when the Thundercats need to rescue their fellow Thunderians. However, Jaga does reappear on Third Earth as a ghost (seen only by Lion-O at first) to guide him in his lessons and adventures. It was Jaga who gathered the nobles of the Thundercats to escort Lion-O and the Eye of Thundera to safety, but did not survive the trip to Third Earth as he volunteered to pilot the damaged ship while the others slept. After Claudus was blinded, Jaga became the main guardian of the Eye of Thundera, the Sword of Omens, and the Treasure of Thundera. An adviser and protector of the Lord's family, Jaga wielded the "Sword of Omens" and was a formidable fighter in combat. In his youth, Jaga was the Lord of the Thundercats, and rescued a young Hachiman from being trapped in the Jade Dragon (which later became a part of the Treasure of Thundera). This elder warrior was once regarded as the mightiest and greatest of all Thundercats by Lion-O himself. Jaga (voiced by Earl Hammond in the original series, Corey Burton in the 2011 series, Larry Kenney in the 2020 series) is also known as "Jaga the Wise" and is based on the jaguar. The following is a list of characters that appear in the American animated series ThunderCats, its 2011 reboot, ThunderCats Roar, and its related media.

Hello, this will be my second attempt at the forums for this. ![]() ![]() ![]() Pros and cons of birdsmouth cutīirdsmouth cut, also known as birdsmouth joint, or birds beak cut, is a cut that literally resembles a bird’s mouth, hence the name. However, keep in mind that VPAs are only suitable for slopes in the range of 3:12-12:2. While this combination will ensure that the weight of the roof is evenly distributed and there are no weak spots, installing VPAs in combination with HPCs is quite easy compared to other methods, and it doesn’t require too much time. One of the best combinations for top-notch roof security is the combination of VPAs and HPCs (hip corner plates). Once the roof rafter has been installed, you can simply attach a VPA to it, connecting the rafter to the outside corner of the wall, which further increases the overall stability of your roof. Since they’re made of galvanized steel (and are protected against damaging corrosion), variable pitch connectors are a great way to create a sturdy, reliable connection between the top wall plate and joists. VPAs (variable pitch connectors) represent probably the most durable, high-quality replacement for birdsmouth cut. You can also add HCPs to each corner of the roof to make sure that the load is evenly distributed between the beams. What’s more, using studs with variable pitch connectors is the best way to increase the support the studs offer for your roofing structure. In case these measurements aren’t correct, the roof joists or beams won’t sit properly, creating weak spots in your roof. When it comes to “tailoring” the studs, it is necessary to determine the pitch of your roof accurately, which is why many people leave this process to roofing professionals.Īlso, it is necessary to measure the ridge beam, as well as the roof span, before you begin cutting. In case you don’t want to go through with the birdsmouth cut method, or you simply don’t think it is the right solution for your roofing after consulting with a professional, it is possible to get the desired outcome by cutting the studs. Corrosion is a very serious issue when it comes to metal rafter ties, as it compromises the structural integrity of the roof by creating weak spots. In case you choose metal rafter ties, it is recommended to add a protective galvanized coating, which will basically protect the base metal from corrosion. Metal rafter ties create a connection between the supporting wall and a single rafter, so the ceiling height doesn’t make too much of a difference. Wooden rafter ties represent a better solution for shallow tray or flat ceilings since they limit the interior ceiling height due to their full-spanning structure. The choice of the rafter tie depends upon the ceiling joist, as well as the overall ceiling design and height. Metal rafter ties, on the other hand, represent a connection between the supporting wall and the bottom part of a rafter. Wooden rafter ties mechanically tie the opposing rafters together, adding more stability to the attic trusses. Rafter ties can be wooden or metal, and both are equally as popular in residential roofing. The sole purpose of rafter ties is to connect the opposing rafters and strengthen the roof or attic trusses. ![]() What’s more, hurricane ties have been found to protect timber and improve its longevity in wooden roofs prone to decay and overall structural failure. These ties are wisely distributed throughout the roof structure, especially in roof purlin plates, wall plates, rafters, as well as floor plates to ensure that the joints are fortified. ![]() Hurricane ties are secured into the roof structure with bolts, screws, or nails, which contributes to the overall structural integrity of your roof. Just like a birdsmouth structure, hurricane ties ensure that the force on the roof, as well as the roof weight, are evenly distributed all around, securing the roof in place. That being said, hurricane ties, also known as hurricane straps or strips, represent an excellent choice for areas with extreme weather conditions and strong wind when you want to ensure that you’re providing the highest level of security for your roof. One of the primary choices when it comes to replacing birdsmouth cut structures in your roofing are hurricane ties.Īs the name itself implies, the structure should be so strong that not even a hurricane should disrupt it, let alone compromise your roofing.
