the 1613... now w/op pro w/xlr and boost,
just arrived.

Great Job on the transplant. sounds great, just put it through it's paces, it is funny seeing the pro on the side of a 79 guitar, but I'll get used to it.

nice job of using available existing holes, the boost button is in a good place, and the plug where the stack/knob is just what I was describing.

looks good, sounds good, and the price was right for the surgery IMO (1 set of storm pickups/controls)..

your string tying skills are better than mine..
I'll give you an 8 on this one... :D

great job on the retrofit, thanks again!'

and thanks for the prayers and well-wishes and thoughts for Char..

Glenn - I'm just glad you're happy with it. Nice choice on the strap! Jason - fortunately I got to practice on my own first.

Jason - you won't be seeing any pictures of the bridge that I tried to rout out! The bridge removal was much more successful however - pics when I put the new one on.

Thanks cwk2... I overdid it on the western, but is for the UKXII/Bluebird mutt.. when finished. all are Levy's with added saddle tack..

I have a plain-Jane acorn/oak leaves for the craftsman.. personally I think the guitars are kinda nice too... and cover some of the tonal bases pretty well IMO.
