It looks great! But I agree with Dave, that's a long wait.

I played a show last night and could finally play a passage in one of our songs up there with complete ease. Thanks for the inspiration, GoT.

I can't claim anything here as mine came that way, but I'm happy to stand by my "brothers..."  ;D

(Hmm... can Peter Cook be considered our "spiritual" grandpa, considering mine goes back to the early 70's...? - Scott def' gets the resurrection credit as his mod well predates my arrival...  ;))

You cannot go wrong with black hardware.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...
