<sad and lonely intro>

How does a guitar sound change with some brand new pickups?

And how much of the pickup's voice changes according to the instrument they're on?

I'm Pietro of Accordo.it and this time I did Frankenstein. I put

on my table the Rozzocaster (rough-caster), a selfmade Strat with Fender

Original 57 62 pickups, and a Manne Raven, italian luthery work with her own original pickups, and I tried to swap their single coils.

<rozzocaster>

The rozzocaster, with her swamp ash body, sounds very bright and the Fender pickups

got plenty of high frequencies, while the Manne has tonal chambers, sounds quite warm and has some

darker pickups. The idea of the exchange is to balance the whole thing.

I wanted to measure the tonal changes so much that I recorded everything, so

here we go.

<manne raven>

We actually have four different sounds: the rozzocaster with Fender pickups,

the Manne with her pickups, the Rozzocaster with Manne's pickups and the Manne with

Fender's pickups. A simple A/B comparison wouldn't be enought

and we should listen to each guitar before and after

as we should also listen to each pickup

on both guitars, to notice how it sound changes according to the guitar

it's on. But putting together a such long list of samples

would be horribly boring, so I tried to short it up with some fast considerations.

In the description below and in the article on Accordo.it you can find the exact timing of each clip

so you can still find yourself the whole thing out

but, before we get started,

don't forget to subscribe!

Let's begin with the biggest difference: how a guitar does change when you give it

new pickups. First the Rozzocaster with Fender pickups, neck position.

<Rozzocaster with Fender, neck>

Still Rozzocaster, with Manne pickups.

<Rozzocaster with Manne, neck>

Now the Manne with its original pickups

<Manne with Manne, neck>

And the Manne with Fender pickups

<Manne with Fender, neck>

Let's do the opposite. Now I recommend you to use good speaker or headphones

and try to notice the slight differences. Hear how the same pickups do change voice when they're mounted into

a different guitar. First the Fender pickups on the Rozzocaster, middle pickup

<Rozzocaster with Fender, middle>

Then Fender pickups on the Manne

<Manne with Fender, middle>

Now Manne pickups on the Manne

<Manne with Manne, middle>

And Manne pickups with Rozzocaster

<Rozzocaster with Manne, middle>

Rapidly, middle+neck, all of them.

<two bars each, middle plus neck>

While we're here, let's hear the bridge pickup too. The rozzocaster

has an humbucker, so I couldn't do a direct comparison and it's the first time i hear my

57 62 in the bridge. Here's the Manne with her original pickups

middle+bridge.

<Manne with Manne, middle+bridge>

And here's the '57 '62

<Manne with Fender, middle+bridge>

And here's the Manne pickup alone

<Manne with Manne, bridge>

and the Fender

<Manne with Fender, bridge>

My impression is that Fender pickups do sound a little less "in your face",

more open on the treble side but well balanced by the warmer nature of the Manne, that

is capable of not making it sound harsh or thin. Manne's single coils, now on the Rozzocaster,

look more well educated. A bit more compressed and focused.

I think they're a little closer to a modern Strat concept.

but I can't wait to hear what you think about 'em!

Don't forget to read the article on Accordo, comment, like and share

if you found this video somewhat useful. I'll see you soon!

LeBron James' Salary: How Much Money Does He Make? | Heavy.com - Duration: 5:36.

LeBron James' Salary: How Much Money Does He Make? | Heavy.com

LeBron James earned over $33 million during the 2018 season with the Cavs.

LeBron James made $33,285,709 playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers during the 2017-18 season per Spotrac.

James signed a 3 year, $99.85 million contract with the Cavs in 2016.

James is set to make $35,607,969 next season, but has a player option he can exercise after this summer that would allow him to become a free agent on July 1st.

James recent approach to contracts has impacted the way other NBA players have viewed free agency.

James has opted to sign shorter deals, which allows him to reassess his options every couple years rather than locking himself into a situation long-term.

NBA players had typically looked for the longest deals, which would guarantee a set amount of money.

James has opted to bet on himself with no fear that he will be able to sign the next contract when his current deal expires.

Prior to signing a three-year contract (with a player option in the second year), James was on a two-year deal with the Heat.

James is likely to do the same this summer when he becomes a free agent once again.

What is the motivation to sign smaller deals? It gives James ultimate control over his future, while pressuring teams to build "win now" rosters around him.

Sometimes, this ends up back firing as we have seen with the current Cleveland roster.

The Cavs signed role players to big contracts to please James, and many of the players have not lived up to their deals.

According to Business Insider, Steph Curry is the only NBA player with a higher salary than James.

Curry made $34.7 million this season with the Warriors.

ESPN's Darren Rovell posted a graphic breaking down just how much money Curry takes home after taxes and other fees.

Steph Curry made the most in the league at $34.6 million, but how much did he take home? I estimated less than half of that.

pic.twitter.com/BwAgflT34K — Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) June 1, 2018  .

Rovell estimates Curry takes home just over $15 million of his $34 million salary.

While the numbers would be a little different for James, namely the state taxes, fans can expect a similar outcome for James' salary as well.

Players have to pay state taxes on their income to any state where they played a road game making filing their taxes a little more complicated than your typical Turbo Tax session.

James makes a lot of money playing basketball, but makes a lot more more money off his various endorsements and business ventures.

LeBron Has an Estimated Net Worth of $400 Million.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, James has an estimated net worth of $400 million.

According to Forbes, James made $86 million in 2017, meaning more than $50 million of his earnings came away from basketball.

His endorsement deals include Nike, Intel, Verizon, Coca-Cola, Beats by Dre and Kia.

James owns the production company SpringHill Entertainment with his manager Maverick Carter.

According to Forbes, James is also part of an investment group that owns 17 Blaze Pizza franchises.

ESPN reported James' 2 percent stake in the Premier League soccer club Liverpool was initially worth $6.

5 million, and is now worth an estimated $32 million.

How Much Money Are You Leaving On The Table? - Duration: 3:23.

Hi.

My name is Taylor Hill.

I'm here with another Power Business Minute.

One of the things we've been talking about the last couple of weeks is following up,

and what people do and how they search for you.

Well, here's something that happens a lot.

Especially for people who are running and gunning and just doing job after job after

job in the service industry and actually in sales in general.

You go into a home.

You find there's a problem.

it's beyond what you came there to serve.

You do the best you can, but you have to leave them an estimate.

So, you leave them an estimate and you're gone.

Then you wait for them to call you back.

There's no follow up.

There's no phone call, and if there is it's usually one.

One and done because you're on to the next one.

You may be giving multiple estimates every single day, and not realizing how many of

those estimates are open and piling up.

Some of our clients have told us this is an $8 million problem.

They have $8 million of open estimates.

That's crazy!

So, I'm going to talk to you just a minute about following up manually.

There's a 3x5 card system that you can do.

When you bring back in, you just put the card in a shoebox, and mark it.

You've got to stay up on that, and you've got to stay very, very current.

You gotta work it.

That's very important.

No matter what you do on a follow up system, you need to work through it.

You can have the day...the month, and you're following up with people by email, phone call,

direct mail, however you want to do it or a combination of ways.

It's something that works, but you have to be diligent about it.

Yes, it's time consuming.

There is another option though, and the other option is an app called Closing Commander.

Full disclosure: we just launched this app with our marketing company, Spark Marketer.

You can see it at closingcommander.com.

It's a fantastic app, and it's for one thing and one thing only.

That is to follow up on open estimates.

That's all it does.

It doesn't track your sales.

It doesn't do anything outside of open estimates, but it will track your open estimates.

It will track how many of those open estimates come back and get closed and how much money

that you're actually closing that would have been left on the table.

So, those are your big options.

1 is pretty much fully automated.

The other one is very manual and time consuming.

So, if you want to know more about Closing Commander, go to closingcommander.com.

You can ask questions.

You can look at everything there.

You want to know more about the manual system, you can contact me at taylor@sparkmarketer.com

and I'll get on a phone call with you and lead you through the manual system of setting

it up with the 3x5 cards.

Either way, we want to help you.

We want you to win, and get more business!

Close more business!

Quit leaving money on the table!

That's what it's about.

We'll talk to you again next week with another Power Business Minute.

June 4, 2018 | How Much Effort Are You Putting In Recruiting? | Straight Talk with Lou Mosca - Duration: 2:09.

♪♫♪♫

Hi.

So often I hear from clients, potential clients, actual clients, that their number one issue

is finding people.

Everybody keeps [complaining] about finding people, can't find people.

Unemployment's, theoretically, under 4%.

Can't find people, can't find people, and when you talk to them it seems that no one

puts in the full-time effort that is required to attract talent.

If you're looking for folks, and you do it on an ad-hoc, part-time basis, then that's

the result you're going to get.

Most folks post an ad on a job board and hope it's going to work, and most folks throw an

ad in the newspaper, which is suicide nowadays, and hope that's going to work.

But, what I ask people all the time is really simple, "Are you putting in the time, energy,

and effort to recruit people as you do to run your manufacturing facility, or to run

your construction environment, or to run your restaurant -- which takes a full-time effort."

So if you're putting in a part-time effort, or less than a part-time effort, to attract

folks, then that's why you're having a problem.

Are you going to churches, are you dealing with AARP, are you look at veterans groups?

Are you posting on all the job boards?

Do you have someone dedicated to recruiting, hiring, training, mentoring, and developing

plans for folks?

And most clients don't.

Most small business owners don't.

They just post an ad and hope it'll work.

Want to talk about how to do this and be a little bit more productive, give me a call.

(800) 743-0410.

Thank you.

Have a good day.

[Behind camera:] I do want to add, the rate of unemployment for disabled persons is at

8%.

There was an article that was saying that more small businesses are hiring people with

disabilities more so than bigger companies, because bigger companies see them as a liability,

despite having the American Disabilities Act.

What's your stance on that?

My stance is talent is talent.

If you could find talent, whatever they look like, dress like, walk like, talk like, chew

like, who gives a damn.

If you could find talent, you should hire talent, because, there [are] not enough people

out there with the right heart and the right soul.

I'm pro-anybody that's got a brain that wants to work.

The Memorial Purse: How Much Prize Money Does Winner Make? | Heavy.com

Bryson DeChambeau watches his tee shot on the 18th hole during the third round of The Memorial Tournament Presented by Nationwide at Muirfield Village Golf Club on June 2, 2018 in Dublin, Ohio.

The Memorial Tournament, presented by Nationwide, is one of the more prominent events on the PGA Tour schedule.

Created by Jack Nicklaus in 1976, the tournament is played eadh year at the Murifield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus.

The purse for the 2018 tournament is $8,900,000, according to the PGA Tour website.

This year, several up-and-comers are battling for the biggest or first win of their PGA Tour career, while a couple veterans, including Tiger Woods, are looking to make a run on Sunday to take home the $1.602 million top prize.

Second place will take home $961,200, third place gets $605,200, fourth place receives $427,200 and fifth place is awarded $356,000.

Bryson DeChambeau entered Sunday's play with a one-shot lead over Patrick Cantlay, Kyle Stanley and Joaquin Niemann.

DeChambeau, Stanley and Cantlay have all one on the tour before, but never in a high-profile event like the Memorial.

Niemann, meanwhile, is a 19-year-old rookie from Chile looking for a mega payday in just his fifth career PGA Tour star.

Veterans like Woods, Justin Rose, Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy also have an outside shot at contending for the win.

"If I can control my emotions and make sure I'm executing every shot to the best of my abilities, making sure it gets right in the fairway, not getting ahead of myself, not even thinking about the last hole, I'm going to have a pretty good chance to get it done tomorrow," DeChambeau told reporters after the third round.

Cantlay, 26, will also be looking for his second career win.

He told reporters, "It's great to be in contention.

That's what I play for, that's what I practice for.

And it's exciting.

That's the most fun I can have out on the golf course, is being in contention.

So just go out and stick to my game plan and hit a bunch of fairways and greens.".

Stanley, 31, has two career wins, both coming last season.

A lot of eyes will be on Woods, as he looks to win his first tournament since returning to the tour earlier this year.

"The last few times that I've had a chance, I've been up there on the board, I've felt very comfortable.

Hopefully, I can just shoot the low round when I need it." He added, "the weather is going to be a little iffy.

But I'm in a position where if I shoot another good round like I had the last two days, I've got a chance.".

The Memorial purse is the 15th largest prize money pool on the PGA Tour this year.

the U.S.

Open, at $12 million is the biggest purse.

Here's the full breakdown of the prize money for the top 50 golfers at the Memorial for 2018:.
