When Albert Lee played a show in March he mentioned that he is the only member of Head Hands and Feet that is still alive.

My pics will not load from my phone nor my computer today.

My Internet connection has been weird today. It may have caused me problems with this site.

After half an hour I can upload photos on my computer. I can login with my phone, but I still cannot upload photos from the phone. Maybe it will work in 30 minutes.

I can read everything on my computer. When trying to view the site on my phone there is a page saying the site is down for maintenance. I signed out. I signed in again and got the same message.

I just tried uploading some jpg's and got error messages.

Gibson would want it destroyed, but not at their expense. Create a warning label and glue it inside one of the not-f holes.

No. Write "counterfeit - not a real Gibson" on it. Even then some people will not get it. Put a label inside the body with a detailed explanation that the guitar is a Chinese copy.

We needed videos like this back in high school when we wanted to BE Judas Priest.

Write an article about fake Gibsons for Vintage Guitar. Use a photo of your Chibson. Then advertise the guitar for sale as "featured in Vintage Guitar Magazine." You might even make a profit.

Man, that is a perfect obituary for David Allan Coe.

The Olsson chick has interviewed a lot of people I like.

Rickenbacker's metallic blue is really nice in person.

You can probably have one made for the cost of what... four Rush concert tickets?

OK. You mentioned that before, but I forgot. You might want to change your profile.

I would go with the singer being the most likely to be a psychopath.

Is the asking price in Canadian dollars and the offer in American dollars?

I remember seeing similar drums in furniture stores in the 1970's and 1980's. Assuming that drum was made on the African continent, you need to narrow down which countries exported such drums. Then you might find someone from an African country who might be familiar with the style of carving. I have known people from Cameroon, Kenya, and Nigeria. Those countries are geographically far apart from each other. If you choose to play it keep in mind what drummers did back in the days before plastic drum heads came along. Kick drums would sometimes have an electric light bulb inside to build up some heat and dry out the heads. A blow dryer might work faster. Like @tomteriffic said above, controlling humidity is a method of tuning.

BTS? My preference is BTO.

The violin was a reproduction that was listed as such. At the time eBay did not care. The seller was forced to destroy it. This was back in the early 2000's I think. It has stuck in my head because eBay screwed a seller.

There was a seller who sold a $2500 violin that was listed as a reproduction. Somehow the violin was caught up in payment, and eBay demanded photos proving the violin was destroyed before releasing the money. China must have some kind of big investment in eBay stock. 😉 Why else would eBay not be removing a bunch of Chinese fakes?

The man was still touring last year! He was a player to the end.

The listing mentions a headstock repair. Maybe the original serial number was lost and restamped.
