  1. Mine is still unblemished and i'll shoot some new pics soon to post. One heck of a guitar !
  2. glad you found an engine reasonably priced.... we had a '92 "Jimmy" 4.3L (same truck) for years and it was still rolling strong with 450,000+ miles on it...only smoked when 1st cranked (valve guides). always heard the 2.8 was a 305 missing the front 2 cylinders, and the 4.3 a 350 w/o the front 2....... both are great engines!
  3. KSD......to NOT prosecute = enabling, and next time she may well take a life. she NEEDS an eye opener. even axe murderers etc. are "Great People" to those that want to believe..........
  4. i WANT one......never knew such an animal even existed! as far as needing a setup....PLEASE go a page or 3 back in this forum and check out my topic on the "JDL (JLD?) Bridge Dr." device. this little $22 unit saved my EJ200.....has the strings as low as on an American Deluxe Strat, with NO buzz.....and actually improved the sound, just like the ad said it would. it's an easy install (no hatchets involved ) and it absolutely WORKS ! Edit.....found & bumped the old thread... guess that makes me a , necrobumper! is that a new dance or an old crime?
  5. thanks....it's fine now except the bite site its-self is a little slower healing.

    good health & wellbeing to you & yours!

  6. Hope your foot is better, that sounded scary!

  7. So many cut offs. Basically our family would've been normal had Cathy lived.

  8. Had Cathy lived.(Sorry PMs cut off after too many words). I didn't want to highjack the KISS thread. Just wanted to offer my condolences. Stay strong brother!

  9. Bender, I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you & Mrs B are doing ok. I went through the same thing in '68 or really my mom & dad did. My sister died from leukemia when she was only 6. I was just approaching 9. Our family never recovered. Dad turned alcohohic, mom lost hair. Eventually my mom recoverd & dad was sober 25 years up till he died in 2008. But our family would'...

  10. as long as the neck and fretboard are both good, hard wood, I really don't care what either is made from, but i'm terribly heavy handed and rather rough on a neck/FB, so if there's a little extra "drag" at first, it won't be there long. the only necks I don't care for are the "dipped in plastic" poly necks some Asian guitars have.....but a good dose of ultra fine 0000 steel wool fixes that really fast!
  11. i'd give my left almond to have THAT guitar !!!
  12. Planet Waves IIRC.....happened the 1st yr I had the V
  13. I use a Hercules w.my '88 LP (older nitro's likely safer than fresh) and my '10 SG Std. with no ill effects. that said, NOT ALL black "hard foam" is safe because I hung my '07 V in a wallhanger that was supposedly "safe"....and I now have 2 bare spots on the underside of the headstock.
  14. you have some very interesting concepts and could probably build some fine guitars. oddly, my SG Std. (7/'10) is one of very few guitars I HAVEN'T modded in any way, it still even has the PCB board in it.....it took a while to get the p'ups balanced just right for my playing, but i've found no reason/excuse to change anything about it (except straplocks of course".
  15. what he said ! you'll get a sour grape occasionally from ANY vineyard.....
