Great read and my favorite video of the old shop.

Yep... good read indeed... never knew most of that...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...

Leo not wanting to use truss rods explains why he didn't make them easy to access for adjustment. He didn't think people would need to use them much. The part about Hendrix not being melodic enough was a gas too.
