  1. I hope they're getting overtime.
  2. http://www.gilmourish.com/?page_id=20
  3. Sounds pretty good in this demo:
  4. A nice addition if you find yourself wishing you had more frets.
  5. That's basically what the ProTec Contego is.
  6. I use a Reunion Blues double gigbag for gigs, and a ProTec Contego for rehearsals. The Reunion Blues is a bit more protective, but both are great.
  7. I'm a Proto fan.
  8. Argh, me too!
  9. The Standard headstock would be a deal-killer for me, but don't let me stop the train!
  10. I would be hard-pressed to say no to this.
  11. It took some doing to get the frets in shape (including a trip through L6's RMA process that didn't fully address the issues), but I finally had time to do my own polish and it's now a great axe:
  12. Just avoid slanted saddles, which tend to mess with string spacing.
  13. Shit, Ted, what a nightmare. Sorry to hear you're going through this.
  14. Gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh.
  15. A little warning next time? lol
  16. I played violin pretty seriously for 17 years. At the 10-year mark, I took to stealing my boarding school dorm mate's guitar for a few minutes at a time and taught myself a few tunes like Money For Nothing before he decided to restring it lefty and started locking his door. At the 14-year mark I finally got a guitar of my own and took a year of lessons with a Berklee grad. My violin training was key in developing my ear and general hand-eye coordination, but those lessons made a huge difference in my understanding of the instrument. I definitely encourage anyone to spring for lessons if they have the funds. Oh, and the time I spent as 2nd guitarist to my friend Jack Devine was a great education in and of itself.
  17. If you're intent on running this down, you would probably need to subpoena the host of Jol's blog, Typepad.com.
  18. I was wondering what that was all about. I would ask Jol to use his admin powers to delete the comment.
  19. Please sign me up for a signature plate. I just placed my order via Schiffer.
  20. Egad, that one makes me nervous! Get one of your buddies to shoot the routing pics.
