Sgt. Pepper

Is Big Bill with you?

After all that, they sound like strings on a guitar.

Then there is your sign. Run away and let it go. I would demand pictures with the truss rod cover off. I would demand pictures of the control cavity opened to make sure it has Gibson pots. If he is unwilling to do that, then no.

Polishing it up then on go the cryogenically enhanced strings.

We are testing in the Wind Tunnel I work at and when we test I go to nights. Should be might last night of nights for this week. I hope so cause The Wood Brother are playing in Richmond Wednesday and I want to go. So just got up, gonna get a few gulps of coffee in me and the strings are coming off. Gonna rock the frets one more time as I lowered the action last time. I did it and did not go back a second time to double check to see if I have a fret of two that need more attention. Its not like the frets are steak knives on the ends like some Gibbys I've owned. Yes the D-41 is new. Yes rct sometimes I just want to look at it, but its an instrument and I play mine. Just cause it cost a pretty penny doesn't mean it ain't getting played. Leave the house, no way, put played, oh h-ell yes. Results in a few hours. I should have taken pics after I dipped them, but I left my phone at my desk.

Never seen. A LP with custom shop on the head stock like that. I'm going with fake.

I listened to Fair Warning the other day. The intro to Mean Street is still bad @ss to this day.

Good news!

My BB King seemed heavier than any LP I ever owned.

I know Gibson Cryogenically enhanced there frets a few years back and Dean Markley dips there Blue Steels (used to use them when I was an electric guy) in Liquid Nitrogen(LN2). I work at a place that makes it on site and today I brought in a set of Martin SP strings and I dipped them in LN2. Tomorrow I have a few frets to take care of on my D-41 and I am going to put the ones I dipped on to see if it actually does anything or its just Snake Oil. I'm thinking Snake Oil personally.

I'm going into the vintage case buisness. 1st customer rct. I like the Martin thermoplastic cases better than Geib ones. Guess I'm weird that way.

Get a Duesenberg Les Trem I think it goes where your tail stop is with no mods.

Your right about that. That is why I sucked it up and did 20 in the military. Health care costs me $50 a month.

Personally I could care less about the original case. I know people go insane about their case csuse it has the pink original fluff in it. As long as it comes with a decent one. I don't play cases I play guitars. A case is something I put a guitar in to get from point A to point B. But for resale value maybe.

I think he used a PAF out of a ES-335. So whatever is closest to that. I could be wrong.

Yeah let us know how they are. I want to get a set for one of my acoustics. If they are all that and a bag of chips I may plunk down the cash and try one out. But I can get 4 sets of Martin's for that price.

...Pete Townshend to take it out of its misery.

Shipping is worth more than the guitar.

Your pulling my leg right. Dickin Cider. Man the inappropriate jokes one can make.

I love a 175 and 335. But don't play electrics anymore. And even if I did there to expensive. I had a BB King and at 2500 when I got it used I thought I should have had my head examined. They reissued them last year for 5k. ES-335 Studio's are now 2k and the nicer ones are 3k. Your out of your mind Gibson.

Plunked on the 12 string a bit. Listened to The White Album and didn't skip over Rev 9 like I usually do. Bought a 180 gram copy of Pink Floyd The Wall. Made dinner and watched 20 mins of deserving people receive awards. Fell asleep to The Grateful Dead.

What if you buy your guitar in the USA and bring it to Canada? I love Canada. Went on my honeymoon to Vancouver and have been back several times. Love Toronto too. Went to Montreal once. I really want to go to Quebec, but not in the winter. Ottawa too and Calgary and Edmonton. This may sound crazy but the best calamari I ever had was in Vancouver and the best dumpling were in Chinatown in Toronto. My wife loves ciders and they are everywhere in bars up there.

Nice. Acoustics need to stay acoustic. I understand if you are a gigging musician and need it.

I'm listening to The White Album right now. George is moaning during While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

It is hard to see what the letters are, what are they? Steve Howe would certainly approve of that. Me too.
