I think ebony would make it more desirable. And for that reason alone I would use ebony. 

[Jury Duty!]

Hi Brad, I had JD a couple times:  A criminal case where a guy stabbed his girlfriend (well, former GF),  a civil case where a lady slipped on a sidewalk, and a medical malpractice case.  There was so much detailed information in the malpractice case, I swear I can perform a carotid endarterectomy on you with a pen-knife.  Hopefully no more JD, ever!

carotid endarterectomy?  What the hell is that?

On second thought, never mind. Just make sure to carry a pen knife with you if we ever hangout. 

[Jury Duty!]

I am so freakin' Happy! I had jury duty this week.  I have not had to go anywhere so far. And I just found out my duty time is over! No having to drive anywhere for me!!!! Had to tell somebody!

So, so happy, I didn't have to do anymore than call or check the website. I have a very hard time sitting around waiting.

I  have had some very un-fun experiences in the past with jury duty. 

How about you guys?  Any interesting past experiences with jury time?  

[Got Tired of Setting up Guitars on the Table]

Very nice!  Looks well built and perfect for doing a set up. 😄

Hey Rabs, do you take any kind of pain reliever? That could help a great deal.

And make sure you are aware of your back thoughout the day while working. I know you do. But it is so easy, when you are feeling well, to forget about this. Keeping your back staight, trying not to bend over for too long, gripping things not too tightly are all things I often forget about when I am feeling fine. And then I pay for it later. 

Perhaps find some excercises for your back as well; something you can do before and after you work in the shop.

Best of luck.

Who are these Beatles you speak of? Are they a new group?

He only comes around once every two weeks or so to stir the pot, so we should be at an ebb right now and not a flow.

The bridge should not have to be that high to clear the board.  That is crazy. 
You are not being too picky.  

[New Build Day]

Congratulations man!  That is so great to hear.  Yes I remember all your trials and troubles you had last time getting your business running.  
Looking forward to seeing your new build.  This time it sounds much more positive. 
Best of luck my friend!😁

You never amaze me, so cease.  (to JVI, not Bill)

[The 85 guitars seized at Dulles International Airport]

What do you think they do with all of them eventually? Just throw them away I guess. 

Or do some take them home and hang them up on the wall, and tell others, "look what I got"?

[Gold paint on LP headstock]

I woundn't try polishing, or doing anything with your fingernail on the logo. That may just damage it. 

Just don't polish it. It doesn't need it. Wipe it with a cloth when it gets dusty. And leave it be.

Same to you all.  My youngest son got us two tickets to Orioles game today. Even though they are pretty bad (understatement) it's always nice to go to Camden Yards for a game. 

What is bad? The seats? Or the Orioles?

or both?

Tell you what----

Get married, have a couple of kids and get divorced after 15 years.  I guarantee that a few years of dealing with the Friend Of The Court system, combined with a conniving vengeful ex wife and all those support and alimony payments will get you out of any frivolous spending habits you might have or might develop REAL quick.  Regardless of how well you can afford anything.

No thanks.

I am the Gene Kelly of guitar playing.
