All Activity

I'm half tempted to buy it, and part it out again... Just to watch him lose his mind 😂

You do realize that when a new owner takes possession, after you sell it or even give it away, they can do what they want to with it?

Sorta New Former Guitar Day. I snagged the Ha Ha Cali body and the accompanying Butala neck a week or so back. I put this together about 10 years ago or so and was especially pleased with the graphic I designed for it. It bothered me that somebody had parted it out. So, I put her back just as she was. Not sure I'll hang on to her. She plays and sounds great but I sold her for a reason and not sure anything has changed. I guess I just wanted to have her whole again and put her in the hands of someone who will actually value and play it.

The first song I heard was You Could Have Been A Lady, a Hot Chocolate cover, I believe. It didn’t do much for me. Imagine my surprise when they came roaring back some years later. It blew my socks off! I ended up digging them after all!

What are you digging about the staples?

Amen to that!

That actually was the case for me too when I developed some hand issues around 2012. I did work past the issue. Around 2023, I developed new hand issues. I’m still trying to work through them, but for now it’s thin necks that provide comfort. Funny how that goes. As to string gauges, I’m down from 11s to 9s on 25.5, and 10s on 34.75. I adapted fairly quickly, but I did come from the land of 9s prior to going with 11s. This is also due to hand issues, and it’s been helpful.

No regerts.

Thirty-ish years ago my brother came home from college and went and had a beer with one of his buds who'd not gone to college. The friend said he had a surprise and pulled up his shirt sleeve to reveal a tattoo. It was a Confederate flag with a banner below that read "Rebal" My brother asks (loudly and obnoxiously, no doubt). "REE-BALL? What the hell is a REE-BALL?" To which the friend argued, "no, no, it's REB-ull." "That's not how you spell that..." This was met with prolonged silence.

Amazing what a tattoo artist can do!

Manchester CT is the next town over from me; email me at stongemon@aol.com and we can discuss what you need. Thanks, stonge

As my coworker says, "If it is important you will remember what it was." I hate him. 😉

....to help with possible transaction?

That's my favorite song of theirs.

But you missed the second part - or maybe you were just making the point! Gotta love AutoCorrupt!

"Forgetting what I was about to ask Google" is the new "walking into a room and not remembering what I went in there for" for me.

And the strings still have tension on them.

I see what you did there.

I still have your Anniversary Mira with the P-90s. It's still great.

I expect he will catch some crap for that part, from wheelchair users and their advocates. I don't remember who it was and therefore can't give credit for the quote, but it was memorable enough that I have remembered for a long time: "I'm not confined to a wheelchair. Confined is what I would be if I didn't have a wheelchair."

With the authentic second fret inlay.

RIP... Loved her voice.. ❤️
