  1. Past hour
  2. Hi, Please go to my serial number database in the future. It covers 39 manufacturers. Largest on the web: https://www.stillkickinmusic.com/blogs/still-kickin-blog/the-serial-bowl cheers!
  3. Today
  4. Sure, , , and this is better view to the tremendous feather coat. Easy to see he's pretty heavy company ~ But the proud rooster was never really aggressive.
  5. Sad news, indeed. Rest in peace Richard as you join so many musical greats who departed before you.
  6. Well, he’s a good lookin’ fella! Very Handsome. I hear some roosters can be a handful, that’s why we were so lucky we just fell into “big guy.” He was just kinda the Zonker Harris of chickens. I swear his crow was “Cock-a-dooodle-duuuuuude!”
  7. Yesterday
  8. Neither I am too fond of the cherry red back-sides-neck - would prefer the tomato-hue. This is however a straight looking 1996 Dove, , , which sounds amaziiing. And visually blends fine with the other flyers around it. .
  9. . . . . . 👍 Thanx a lot for that insight - you really know what we are talking about, I don't. But here's the actual vintage semi-crazy cock ~
  10. Hey, , , , wait a minute - I got 1 for sale. A 1959er. .
  11. Rec'd the guard from Terrapin and as I expected there is considerable difference. The top guard is from Holter, the bottom from Terrapin. I must say the Holter guard is much better finished......the beveled edge is done perfectly. Lot more translucent areas on the Terrapin guard, will show more wood and has more consistent straight lines in the pattern. This one was made from a tracing (rather than having the original in-hand) and it is just a smidge smaller.........perhaps a 64th all the way around..........but not an issue as it lays in the footprint just fine. The solid black Dave made is inbound via snail mail. I must admit I've grown accustom to the guitar being 'naked'...................
  12. Here's Jeff and Richard from 2012. This is so good!! (Just let one song after another play. There's a half hour of songs from the gathering on youTube.)
  13. I've been working on intervals lately. Went down a rabbit hole that forces me to think about what I'm doing, or in the case of this morning's discovery, other guitarists playing. A while ago I learned the solo Jimi Page uses on Achilles Last Stand. The one where he takes a run up the neck. I remember reading once that he wanted to create a solo where he used every note in the scale and have it sound remarkable. I love it when I figure stuff out on guitar. Page's ascending run up the neck is fantastic. It's musical genius. It is played on the third and fourth strings and is known as an Interval of a 6th. Starting on the fifth fret of the G string, Page plays C. The he plays A on the D string, 7th fret. Next two notes are D to B. Then another interval 6th, E to C. He continues in the key of C through the remainder of the scale. So, F-D, G-E, A-F, G-B right up to the 19th fret of the D string. It's a beautifully crafted Major sixth run through the C Major scale. Give it a try.
  14. So who ya' putting your money on for the big race? Here's the horses and odds. Kentucky Derby Horses I've got West Saratoga, to win. To place I've got Resilience. For Show, Fierceness
  15. The Fishman’s sound is hard to beat.. I’m curious about the AER Amps.. They’re in their 4th Generation?
  16. I put a Set of Fralin P-90’s in my Casino & they are as good as the Gibson P-90’s in my USA Casino.. That said, if you’re going a Johnny Winter sound that would be Mini Humbuckers.. Sweetwater carries several makes including Gibson.. My Gibson Firebird V has Gibson Mini Humbuckers & they sound great.. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.. I’d go with the Gibson’s… https://www.sweetwater.com/c965--Mini_Humbucker_Electric_Guitar_Pickups
  17. E-minor I use just the smallest amount on the front side in the middle against the end grain--have never had any issue when removing for adjustments, etc. But that's just me. 🙂
  18. I always liked ELO. Richard Tandy, RIP
  19. If it was Pepsi Clear it would never have caught fire. Or sold any cases.
  20. I heard a few hours ago. ELO had many damn fine albums.
  21. Very sad. 😔 https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainment/music/he-was-a-remarkable-musician-and-friend-jeff-lynne-pays-tribute-to-electric-light-orchestra-keyboard-player-richard-tandy-who-has-died-aged-76/ar-AA1o0g85
  22. I need to break out On The Threshold Of A Dream. I listened to Children’s Children the other night.
