There'll be room for a welcome diversion, Kostas... ;)

Bill... some of those boxes I helped move up to Livingston (betwixt Edinburgh and Glasgow) in the 80's, then dad moved them to the Hebrides (to the west of me at my present location) after we lost mum in the 90's, then I took them south after we lost him in '01... now they're back in Scotland... they will be unpacked, even if in rotation... :o

Why would you do that?  Let you daughter move them around for a few decades when you're gone! ;)

And I'm still jealous :sad:

He rock's a mean blouse!  ;D

I've been hearing another of their songs on the radio and have really liked it.  I do like these kids.

One can only wonder what their influences were?

Awesome place Kenny!  Sounds like it's four times the size of your last place.  Owls in the backyard?  Too cool though I'm guessing the owls turning your local nut eating rodent population into and all you can eat buffet might run counter to your goals! :o

Awesome and congrats Kenny!  How's about few pics of your place?  What passes for a respectable shed in your "neighborhood" :)

The Outpost Cafe / Re: More bad news for AC/DC
« on: April 17, 2016, 06:39:46 PM »
I've seen AC/DC twice - the first time was Bon's last tour and the second was the Back in Black tour.  No comparison.  Bon's show was in the Houston Music hall where the symphony and such performed - small place, excellent acoustics, loud as all hell and damn near life changing  :o  The BnB show as very good but, seriously, no one can touch Bon.

Guitars Etc. / Re: coffee vs guitar strings

Try to the tried and true wet cell phone trick - once they're rinsed bury them in a bag of rice.  It dries up cell phones - might work for guitar strings as well.

Carlo, do your get along well enough with your neighbors to get some fresh yard eggs?  I would think that the cats would be none to tasty and it's too damn much work to clean a fresh chicken ;)

She's got more jiggle going on than nine cats in a gunny sack! ;) ;)

Yes!  A very "bouncy" bass line  ;D

I like both but favor #2.  I might beef up the upper bout a bit a lighten the lower if I were building to my taste.  As for the build why not give Carlo's process a try - he laminates a body blank out of white pine 2x4s and builds a dummy then mounts the neck to test for overall appearance and ergonomics - sometimes seeing it assembled is the best thing.

I've noticed over the years that the smaller the soccer mom, the bigger the SUV she drives.

Correct, also the fewer kids she has the bigger the SUV!  ???

FUGLY!!!  But, I really like the jack setup and location - straight connector almost in a perfect line with the strap pin - brilliant!

I see you have a new SUV out. My birthday's coming up and I'd like one. Please?

SHERP



Pfffffttttt!!!  Where I live the the soccer mommies drive bigger trucks! ;D  Granted, with 50" inch tires the trucks and SUVs will float some what but not for all that long.  :P
