Me too, I'm off pick guards these days. I love to see as much of the wood as possible.

Sounds OK, could you clean it up some with a solid state amp?

We lived in Toronto for a couple years. Took a hospital administration job in the mid 80's and moved there from Ohio University. Got homesick and moved to Buffalo. It was a good experience. Nice people, even though it took a boatload of money to live there.

After seeing that I can understand why they were sleeping with pigeons. I did like the way the singer connects with the audience. Great eye intact and chemistry there!

Ironic, yes?
I do think that is often the case. I'm just not inclined to take stuff. There's something in my brain that just fights it. Drugs do seem to work well on me in small doses, so I can't complain about that.

Thanks Kenny. It sounds like you're making great progress. I had a crappy week cuz my pain hadn't improved with the radiation treatment. So, yesterday I gave into taking the pain killers and I feel a lot better. I can actually do stuff now. Hopefully this next week will be better! I just hate taking any drugs of any kind, to the point of torturing myself unnecessarily! Duh, I'm not doing that any more. 
I'll post any progress I make on the BillyBo.

Yeah, but it still had a Leslie quality to it in my 16 year old brain. Fun facts.

« on: April 23, 2016, 10:21:59 AM »
I also will measure the pickup placement on a favorite bass with similar characteristics and use that figure. Not as realistic as Carlos mock up model, but it's worked well over the years.

Yeah, I was kidding. I'm already trying to figure out how to do a simple touch up job on it. Either way, it will sound the same when finished!
