  1. Same nose, same smile, similar eyes- he could be your dad!
  2. That looks like a winner, but what will it cost and will he make it available for purchase aside from on his guitar designs? No info on his site yet...
  3. I had an unmolested closet queen '84, probably the one I most regret selling....
  4. It makes sense when you get reasonable pricing, which I finally did.
  5. I had George do a refret for me years ago (with the Plek), great job but their prices are up there now (cheaper for me to buy another complete neck). Looks like Hobo for the win- Scott gave me a great price and an extremely fast reply to my inquiry. Will let everyone know how it works out for those looking for a refret in the future...
  6. NYT links are still useless, but the Archive links are not.
  7. Thanks, Hobo. He's local, so that's a plus.
  8. Sad to hear, the cat was a monster. FYI- links to NYT are useless, have to create an account to read anything. https://pitchfork.com/news/aston-family-man-barrett-bob-marley-bassist-dies-at-77/
  9. He died on a cruise ship after a performance, heart attack, only 66. Man lived it, baby.
  10. Here's what I'm noticing- refrets on a setneck guitar is a necessary evil, but on a bolt on the pricing doesn't make sense. I paid less for a brand new, complete duplicate custom neck than what I'm being quoted for a refret. Crazy. Thanks. Chris & Ernie, I will give 'em a shout.
  11. Can't, pro, play for a living, need the body (just ordered a replacement neck, as stated in opening post). Found a bunch of guys online that do it, just wanted some rec's from people here as I trust the community.
  12. Just shipping the neck, no big shipping cost. Thanks on the suggestions, will reach out and see who's available.
  13. Since the master Murkat hung up his tool belt I've been doing all my guitar work myself, but the time has come for my main baby to get a refret (which I am not tool equipped to do). I'm hoping someone here can recommend a new master, preferably a cat that will do the refret with just the neck (I ordered a duplicate replacement neck so I need the body). Warmoth Strat 4 bolt, 22 fret, no binding, 6105 SS. Thanks in advance for any help y'all can provide.
  14. That is a killer V. Wish I'd seen that back when I still acquired guitars...
  15. Absolutely one of the Godfathers of Power Pop…
  16. I just played "No Matter What" last Saturday at a gig...
  17. Really enjoyed that. Love the tasty vibrato. Kudos!
  18. Larry was an old friend, and a great guy. He was devastated when Lorrie passed, I'm actually amazed he made it this long after she left this earthly plane.
  19. Dude, you can fucking P-L-A-Y. You would sound great on a $400 super strat, blowing $4k on an axe is for lawyers who can't plink out Smoke On The Water. That cat actually dig you a solid. Now go take the wife on a surprise trip somewhere nice instead with the dough you saved, trust me, the return will be MUCH more satisfying than an over priced git-fiddle...
