Heil! My new Cello bag(Left)!

The old bag(right) is too heavy and big(a.k.a humongous) … it feels like carrying a dead man’s coffin on my back!

Changing Cello Tailpiece…a Piece of cake!

I am very proud of my self today. I have purchased a cheap student cello almost one year ago and the fine-tuners were really hard to move that they caused me blisters in my fingers whenever I try to adjust the tune a bit. My previous teacher asked me to change the fine tuners but couldn’t find any shop in Bahrain that sells Cello or even its accessories so I did everything online, that’s why I’ve purchased a new tailpiece with built-in fine-tuners! I was bit scared because I have no idea how to change the tailpiece…I still remember the first time I decided to tune the strings myself and the D string snapped on me! and I had to order new strings(and they are expensive)!

Once the new tailpiece arrived today all my fears disappeared! it was so natural and easy! and now I can tune my cello in minutes without pain!

I should become a Luthier because I can change strings, adjust bridges and lately changing tailpieces! Yeah, I am that good! and yes, I can also tune my own cello…thank you!

ihawk: Hi, please can you tell me about your Polaroid cam? from where did you bought it ? .. welcome aboard

Its an Instant camera that prints full-color 3X4” photos in under a minute (about 40 seconds) Uses 3X4” Zink Zero Ink Printing Technology so you do not need any Ink cartridges only its special photo papers which came in a pack of 30 which you have to purchase separately but you get 10 photo papers for free with the camera inside the box. It also makes video and audio recordings.

Its a bit expensive for a 14Mp digital camera. It is also a bit slow and takes some time to snap a picture. It does take nice good quality pictures though but its useless in the dark even with the flash on.

One annoying thing about it is that you never know when you are charging it if its full or not because there is no LED to indicate that.And whats with the useless 2.7” LCD monitor? its good to navigate through the pictures and to apply some effects to it such as fish-eye,retro and such but it would be nice if can be rotated or flipped or something.

All in all, it is fun for those who enjoys retro stuffs, but I won’t recommend it for those who seeks higher quality and latest technologies.

I purchased it online from this site: http://www.adorama.com/ they have pretty good offers. I got it from them in a Bundle(with Polaroid 3x4 inch Zink Photo Paper 90 Sheets).
