Longest I've done was Miami to Rio de Janeiro - 14 hours in a 767. The cabin felt more like a sci-fi movie set than an airplane. I fully expected a goat or small monkey to walk down the aisle at any minute.

She is definitely not a fan! I play in church. Throwing a pick would be considered... well... bad form... 🙃

I generally keep a Jazz III (red only, please) in my pocket and am oddly able to keep up with it until the edges are worn sufficiently to throw it away. I can't recall the last time I lost a pick.

^^ Is Myles playing a St. Blues (Strings and Things) guitar? ^^

I've been amazed at how quickly anything he puts up for sale is gone, seemingly regardless of price. Good for him.

Sold around noon CST (or CDST, whatever we're in right now).

Gorgeous!

Would love to get into home recording and I've made half a dozen attempts but it always ends in paralysis by analysis. The closest I got was when I bought a Yamaha THR and downloaded Reaper (IIRC). My Sweetwater Sales Engineer likely has tally marks on the wall for every time I've emailed asking questions - more data = more analysis.

Received a notification from Reverb this morning the original guitar is down to $999. If this is a flip, is this the point where the seller begins to get nervous?

That's killer, but the trem arm has to be the tire tool from the tour bus! Reminds me of the Phil X' Flipstick from BITD

Absolutely beautiful!

The first Hamer I ever encountered in the wild was a Phantom A5 in that color in a pawn shop. It's a great color and amazing it isn't seen more frequently.

Follow up with AI: "This is an image of a switch tip. It is not a microphone nor is it from a microphone. From what is this switch tip?" Searches for Vintage Sunbeam Electric Carvin Knife have thus far produced images of the Sunbeam electric carving knife that we've had since we were married in 1990 (hardly vintage).

I couldn't help myself. I put the image of the switch in Google Images and it told me it was a microphone. So I added "switch tip" to the search and it gave me the most marvelous example of AI getting completely wound up in its own confusion: The reason that's funny is I looked up those microphones and they do have switches, but they're the normal square black tips. The AI convinced itself the image was still a microphone, went looking for microphones that matched the image and then "explained" the tip belonged to the microphones that "matched" the image.

A cleaner example in Denmark - reminds me of @Jeff R's Ruby Slippers ride: Hamer USA Centaura 1991 – Candy Apple Red | Reverb $1,640.09 + 242.98 Shipping

Is this guy trying to flip it then? Pretty ambitious starting price.

Wow! Excellent photography and what a beautiful color!

Somebody buy this before I have to. I've been watching this thing since the price was nearly double what it is now. I even had a special offer a week ago that was something like $1,399. Hamer Chaparral 1987 - Blue Sparkle Made In USA | Reverb Really? $1,100? And it's blue - you guys and your blue guitars!

All of the photos I’m seeing on Google have what looks like a standard Strat switch tip.

Always a great time for a "Gilmour break." What are the odds that is "the" Les Paul? Really cool he and Romany are getting to do this together.

Poor thing's never been played! Such neglect!

Beautiful!

And futile work, at that.
