Congrats Jeff, i could imagine how happy you are :) i always dreamed of someting like that but SSB. Beg your pardon, i don't fully understand what you mean with: "top- suspended ring mount" vs a regular top guitar. May you give me some explanations ? Thanks a lot. | ||

Either the 'mac' or the 'iweb' is unacceptable. :D http://web.mac.com/jeffwhitehead/iWeb/Jeff%27s%20Guitars/Photos.htm... There is something strange with the ubb code which will not allow me to "name" the url. Actually, it's the '%' signs. I think UBB sees it as HTML, which isn't enabled on this board. Wonder why it worked before? | ||

Wabbit, thanks for the clue, I have no idea why it worked before and what might be different now that it won't. Oy. I bet you tried too, thanks. | ||

It had more jangle without the complex overtones this one has. Now that might be complete bullshit (Shut Up, Stephen) but it's what I remember. Some one out there owns both a Ute and 597 or has played both recently enough to be more acurate... Though this guitar sounds warmer than the Ute. | ||

I have to think that the mid depth bowl with a 12 fret Adamas is a match made in heaven. I've always thought that the deep bowl on the Ute gives it too much depth. | ||

Joined: February 2005 Posts: 11840 Location: closely held secret | The unacceptable characters (in this case the apostrophe and the space) are replaced with the hex equivalent - apostrophe = %27, space = %20. If I remember, your album used to just be called "opics". Try naming an album without these characters. | ||
