2A Tuesdays ( a Looping Thread)

The flat capped loopers are a lot of fun, nice to have something different

AllYoYo 720s tonight. I’d been playing Loop Ups the past few days and thing I prefer the spacer adjusted gap of the 720. The Loop Up is just a bit hard to dial in and if you don’t tighten it right it might loosen and mess up your gap.

I just worked my last day in 2023. The next few days while the kids are still in school is the real vacation.

Happy Tuesday! I’m playing the Something LP today. One was grinding a bit so I cleaned and lubed both bearings. Playing smooth bow. Maybe a bit slow.

Happy 2024! I finally found my spare 720 axle, and so after harvesting the axle from a SnapBack (seen here enviously looking on and pondering its new existence as a SpinStar) I was able to install a fresh Sunrise kit and have bearinged Happy Holidays throws from YYF.

Edit: maybe it’s just that I haven’t cleaned, lubed, and restrung any of my loopers in a while and this one is all minty fresh, but these things absolutely rip. Super fun with the Sunrise kit.

It’s restringing day! For one reason or another I’ve been unable to restring my loopers for about a month (I usually restring every other time I play a pair). I’ve unfortunately run out of Sochi Loop string so I’m going to have to knot and cut strings down myself :cry:

I’m restringing with a Rewind looping blend sent to me by @TommyBwell in orange and Kitty Normal in white.

Thanks! A mail order whiskey tasting came in it from back at the beginning of the pandemic when work was trying to make being remote fun :grin:

Those look great and I know they play very well. And an excellent song along with simple man. Always play one or both when jamming with drummer across the street.

Well I finally have my 720 collection fully rounded out with the addition of a few new pairs during Christmas. I’m honestly baffled as to how the new ones to the left (excluding the LED’S) play with ZERO lube. Just a bearing cleaning and wow do they respond great and spin a long time. It really must come down to the difference in spacer tolerance. Never understood until today how some guys don’t lube them at all.

The LED’s play heavy, but are a lot of fun… was going to try to upload a video but it doesn’t appear to be an option outside of recording one live… anyone know if there’s a workaround to that?

You can upload to YouTube, insta, or Imgur and it will embed here if you put the link on a line by itself.

Oh, maybe discord too?
