It's been a very long day:
Drove from Poughkeepsie, NY to New Hartford, CT then back to Poughkeespie then to Bethlehem, PA then back to Poughkeepsie again.
Great day though. Got to see Kim and John. (Sorry Dweez, I didn't think about your saddle.) Picked up some stuff, dropped off some stuff....
AND....
took pictures.....much to the bemusement of various staffers.
It's a little too much for a single thread, so I'll try to get some others going before bed. Bedtime is when I finish this beer. (Sam Adams Lager, because I know at least one of you asked.)
But to get these topics rolling, here's a pic. Personally, I think I should be running this place, not so much because I'm qualified or anything, I just wanna.

Location: south east Michigan | Ooooo! There is some inspiration for some calendar pics. In past years I must have been to geeked up at the time to think of it.
In the parking lot... guitar in sharp focus in the forground and the factory tower just off to the right, slightly out of focus. But this might be beyond my skill range to set up. No problem!!! We have Mr. Wong! |

Location: south east Michigan | Patch... If those pics are big enough a couple of them might be useful for the calendar.
If you would, please pick out a couple of your favorites and send the full size pic to Designzilla. |

My list was down to 06C and 87C, now it is 06C, 87C and 02C!
Well maybe - the 02C is a 'laminated' top right?
Does look very yummy. |

Does look very yummy. As Mauvais Beal once said, "It's a panel-master, but it's a very nice panel-master."
I love the sound of mine. It's my second one; I missed the first one the day after I sold it. You'll appreciate the story:
I put it on Craigs List locally and got a call three hours later from ENGLAND. The lady's brother lived locally and bought it for her. She apparently was loading up a car full of US goods that he would escort back when he went! No joke. I assume it made across the pond OK.
Anyway, when the weather is super bad here, it's the 02C that leaves the house. I figure the laminate just adds that extra degree of ruggedness. At least that's how I explained getting another one to my wife. :rolleyes: :cool: |
