Don't you dare!

Sorry to hear about your Mom, Brooks. It's always harder than you expect.... Great guitar. Love the size. I had the Epi version for awhile. How does the CS Gibby compare?

Not quite a Sustain Block, though:

When I was gigging regularly I'd buy D'Addarios in the bulk box (25 sets). One of those boxes had that unraveling-at-the-ball issue with the high E string, but they sent replacements and all was good. And it hasn't happened since. It's really odd to have it happen on a regular, consistent basis. And across all string brands and tailpiece types. Try these: They're expensive, not as bright-sounding as the regulars, and a bit stiff but seem pretty robust. I haven't broke one yet.

BCRGreg advise: pick the guitar up right after you shower. It'll build callouses faster. Think about all the really great athletes you knew in high school. How many of them are still active in any way today? I mean, aside from fetching a beer at a commercial break. Most of them have aged out. The thing with guitar is (unless your hands are totally non-functional) you never age out. It's always there. You can always make some sort of noise on it. You can always maybe even learn some new stuff (or un-learn some bad stuff). That's the beauty of it - as long as you stay passionate about it, it's always available to you. There's no race to win, no chicks to take home (anymore), no competition of any kind - just you and that damn aggravating set of strings all tuned up and ready to see who's boss. Be the boss, Mitchell.

Well, first, you oughta fix that. Although if you're missing all 6, it should be easier.

Or... You could get 129.890 regular Hamers for that amount.

Kev?? How the HELL is he?

Well they do love their guns.

And what kind of slimeball targets lowly musicians? Especially guitar players?? Jeezus people - aim higher!

Nice rehearsal space.

That, and a Triple Threat? You're spoiled.

I almost made it through the first line before needing a shower. Those 10 seconds made me want to puke. People actually listen to this shit??

I know. Illinois.

10 years?? Holy hell what have I done with my life?

That's really all you need to know.

Shitshitshitshitshit. I just now had other plans made for me on that day. Dammit.

If I can wrestle my inner hermit to the ground this might be a thing.....It would be great to put faces to some of you numbskulls. Are pedalboards allowed?

For us slow people - what's the point of a stinger?

They're even if you count the horse with no name.
