  1. Missed all u guys! I was in turtle mode today. Got here around 12:45. Saw a nice PRS McCarty 594 SE, tobacco burst. Asked the guy what he wanted, looks at his watch and says "At this hour, probably go $525", but he didn't take any debit/credit cards. I could have swore I heard $525. Looked around the lobby for an ATM. Came back and told him I could squeeze out some cash from the ATM in the lobby. He says "What did I quote you?" I told him $525. He says "Nah, if I said that it would have been gone". My guess is when I came back, some young buck was drooling over it. "OOOOH. I want this!" What a CHOOCH!! So, drowning my missed opportunity at the bar. 😡
  2. Just crawled out of bed. I live 5 miles from Indiana border. Will be on my way ASAP. At my age, it'll be a while 😜
  3. Funds $ent for 2026.
  4. Great video. I'm working on a '54' style Strat build. Picked up a Sassafras body, an Ed O'Brian Fender neck that has the 10/56 soft V profile, Alnico 3 pickups and 100k pots. A video I saw here once with 2 '54's in a shoot out had me do a deep search and found out that the early '54' models used the 100k pots. I opted for a Super Vee trem though with Highwood saddles instead of a Fender trem. Hoping it'll sound as good as the video here.
  5. The C&W players are the fastest and most precise players I've heard growing up. As a kid, I'd be glued to the tube watching those fast fingers of Roy Clark on the Hee-Haw tv show.
  6. Thanks. Tried to pull down the video without the link. Still trying to figure this stuff out. I'm waaay behind the times.

  20. I did that neck trick on one of my bolt necks some time ago, can't remember where I read it from. But they suggested about 1/4 turn at each screw 'till you hear that "click", then lock that baby up. Was kind'a scary when I heard it, but after a retune and truss rod adjustment, smooooth !!
