    Wily, I'm still working on the west coast schedule. Gibson offered to fly me to the Homecoming in June and then promptly stopped returning my message (business as usual for Gibson). So, stay tuned.

    This is the only other National acoustic I've seen...I think his price is a little out of line.....Do you have a good luthier you work with or do you do your own work? I've just got a Gibson MK-72 that is getting some fret work, I haven't posted it on the forum yet. These get a very bad rap, generally, But the one I got sounds GREAT and besides the bridge, lol...is quite good lookin...

    I have not paid for it yet as we are still haggling. If I recall the VPG gives the value in the $500 range. The bridge is lifting so that knocks the value down a bit. I figure if I walk in with cash in my wallet I should be able to get it for less than $400.

    Wiley, mine's maple. A short-scale mahogany AJ would be just like a Fuller's J-35, except with a flatter neck profile and the arrow inlays. The Fuller's is a great guitar. Good sustain, lots of volume, but a little drier than a J-45.

    I love ya Bro. As you know, fixing these guitars up is just another form of GAS. I already have the next project waiting in the wings - a 1954 Kay-made National. Has that funky bolt-on "Stylist" neck. But with the neck profile and 24.75" scale it has a very familiar Gibson feel to it.

    John, keep doing what you're doing. This ASCAP crap ebbs and flows. They're definitely a pain and they do frighten some business owners, but then they kind of disappear for a while and things calm down. Keep playing and focus on writing some songs. It's a blast. Plus, it will help make you a better picker.

    "John, please let me know when you are in the bay area next, would like to buy you a beer and chat, maybe play some guitar or just hang out!"
    Wily, I'm working on an April visit to the bay area. Just waiting on Gibson to come through on my expenses. We'll see. They are an interesting bunch.

    My dear friend, I am sad to read this from you. Really don't like aggression in actions and in words and I understand you. May be you will not just leave, but only follow the forum without posting. I do so. I am a little bit "lucky" because I don't know so much american english and can not guess this agrression fully ;-) I will keep the touch with you, for you are one precious p...

    RE: AC: Larry Ellison already has well over $150 million invest out of pocket already, so I can't believe he will let it fall over because of a "few"" millio0n shortfall. We'll see.
