It is pretty, I don't have that color yet. Debbie says I'm not allowed to get guitars of the same color. They have to be different. LOL -
Millions excitedly plan to watch something "turn off"

Seen it. I still remember the last one. Best to watch it through a welding helmet or a sun lens. -

Do you know those Pet lasers like for cats? We had one for him. He was hilarious chasing it all over. It was rare we did it for him but he looked forward to it. He would not quit chasing it and crying trying to catch it. We have leaded glass, beveled windows and the sun projected different colors all over the walls and ceiling plus the carpet. He went nuts over them when downstairs. I didn't even see the Jag guitar doing it but he did. Ever hear a full grown Doberman Pincher howling like a wolf? He was loud and would not shut up till I put the guitar on the rack. Sometimes he sang or howled with the songs. I actually miss him very much. -
Not really, Aleve does nothing for me. I feel better with 2 Advils. I have tried Tylenall and others, to no effect.

When I have to take Advil almost every morning to function.

I loved the Jag, Sundance wouldn't let me play it much. He kept barking at the metal that shined on the walls & ceiling. He was louder than I and wouldn't shut up. I loved playing my surf songs and using the Tremolo bar. -
So I have a terrible idea, which is a great place to start.

Funny, I hate to admit it but way back decades ago, I drove up to a fast food window and ordered Kentucky fried chicken. They said we don't have any. I looked up at the sign and was at the burger joint next to it. I was so embarrassed. -

Lol, I tried to turn around and look at him but couldn't with the seat belt on. She said he was sitting at the light going to town with two actual drum sticks on the steering wheel. When the light changed he kept playing as he drove for awhile. Probably when he finished his song? Haha. -

My wife saw a guy behind her on the road that was driving and had 2 drum sticks beating on the steering wheel. We thought, Oh My. Sorry, didn't get his license. Lol. -

Thanks for the info, Like I said, I gave that guitar to our granddaughter. I asked both grandkids, Which guitar do you want? Reagan wanted the Jag and Grayson wanted my red Gretsch. John wanted my black & white Epiphone Standard so I took all 3 over to their house. That still gave me 6 guitars. Of course I told them my Gibson standard and Casino were off limits till after I die. -

That was probably it then. When my arthritis acted up the fingers got sore fast so I put 9's on all the guitars. Now I purchased Thomastik Infeld 10-48's and put them on my Casino. I actually love them and plan on ordering some for the other guitars. -
Welcome Eric. Practice gets that playing back on track.
