polara Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Here in Atlanta at our HRC there's a Sunburst that is labeled as having belonged to Eddie Van Halen. Highly dubious... Ha. When I think of "She's Tight," I think of a very attractive friend who became very good pals with Jon Brandt after CT played here... Ha.
crunchee Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Nice! Is this one at the Chicago HFC? Reminds me a little of mine: http://s218.photobucket.com/user/dodgrsm/media/38311673-9b64-4cc9-893f-5142d229b6b6_zps4daff541.jpg.html'> http://s218.photobucket.com/user/dodgrsm/media/f9bfe0c7-077f-4155-9c44-56e4bef657e6_zps7f4a0b48.jpg.html'>
Ting Ho Dung Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Nice! Is this one at the Chicago HFC? Reminds me a little of mine: Please explain that nut to me.
crunchee Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 The nut is just the standard issue Lubritrak nut, as fitted on most Hamer USA models of the time (mid-90's). I had some funky lighting that day when I took the photo, the first fret isn't skinny OR that color...and no, it's not brass, either! It just has the regular Hamer USA frets, no changes. Maybe a thunderstorm or something was coming up in the distance to make the lighting the way it was, I dunno.Edited to add: I may have used a flash for that photo, too (it was a long time ago). I rarely use flash anymore, it doesn't always help the photos, plus it eats batteries!

Jackass Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Is that checkerboard at a Hard Rock? If it is, I worked on that. The Gonna Raise Hell Standard is next to my bench right now. Not very exciting now,is it? Lubritrak nuts suck. Bm
BTMN Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 A shame it is languishing where it is instead of being played on a regular basis.
Jackass Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 You can't expect me to checkerboard during the week. I want $10.00 per checker. Who's leading the race? If Danica wins, she should do victory lane naked. Her boyfriend caused the wreck that ate her up last week. I can imagine how that went down later. I just looked, F*****g Kyle is leading again! After he dumped his Nationwide team, he has been going crazy. Combined with his hotty wife, life is good. Bm

BTMN Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Cryle won last night in Nationwide. As you noted he is freakin' stinking up the show tonight too.
Jackass Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Puddle Of Mudd 'Drift And Die' ringing in my phones while posting. Is that cool lingo for the youngun's? Bm
NEWMAN60 Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Puddle Of Mudd 'Drift And Die' ringing in my phones while posting. Is that cool lingo for the youngun's?BmI was in a puddle of mud all day,now to dry out with seven/seven.
Jackass Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 What are you doing in the mud? Did they move you guys today? I was on the other side. I saw Doug P.'s Facebook photo. Only half of his face is showing. Bm

BTMN Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 60 laps to go last pitstops coming up perhaps.i'm think this thread is a lil hijacked! Checkered flag coming up soon.Now we back on some Checkers. How many Checkerboard Standards guitars you reckon Rick has had. I can think of 4 for sure counting the one in this thread, Enola I and II, and the Pick guitar. 10? 20? More?
Jackass Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Newman60? I remember 5 copies for the Hard Rocks about 4-6 years ago. Just recently we did one copy for him. Is that close? Where' MS. He'll know. Call him up and get him on. Bm
BTMN Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 I was just curious. No dying to know.OOH another caution.
NEWMAN60 Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Shishkov remembers everything! Those R.N. checkerboards were made from old stock GSTM's.
Jackass Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Kenseth won! Payback. Nascar will find in the post race tear down that his springrubber was 1/1,000,000,000,000,th out of spec. Bm
LordOfTheThighs Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Great. I DVR'd the race. I'm watching the recording,and decided to check the HFC. And heres a Uncle Rick thread. Cool. Then out of the blue the race winner is posted. Thanks.
