    Having that relic-ed handy carrying case to go along with it alone makes it worth 100 fold from the new price.

    I made that sheath after the original one wore out. I did demolition work in the early 80's in Lake Charles, La. and later did some lumberjacking for a decade or so, and was real hard on things in those days. Wore the frets off a 72' "Recording" Les Paul during those same years. I should have kept that one.

  2. A woman was found guilty in court of a traffic violation, and when asked for her occupation, she said she was a school teacher.

    The judge rose from the bench and said: “Madam, I have waited years for a school teacher to appear before this court.”

    “Why is that Your Honour?” asked the teacher.

    The judge smiled with delight and said: “I’m going to need you to sit down at that table and write ‘I will not run red a light’ 500 times.”

     nice sentiment, but it doesn't happen exactly like that. 

    Bingo.

    People get addicted to free food. And free stuff. Then they "vote" for more free stuff.

    Hunger is a great motivator.

    Get a J.O.B. 

    Buy yer own stuff.

  4. "The more the people are discontented with the oppression of taxes, the greater the need the prince has of money to distribute among his partisans that are to suppress all resistance and enable him to plunder at pleasure."

  5. Update.

    I like them a lot and will be ordering more. They punch through just fine at an "all acoustic" (no amps) jam I do a few times a month but retain a fat/full tone.

    They will be going on the J-15 next, as well, and I will update as that experiment progresses.

    I'm pretty set in my ways and it's unusual when I make a change.

    The inflation thing happened when the gov't gave a bunch of money to businesses during the pandemic instead of giving it to the consumers 

    They put thousands of dollars in everybody's accounts.

    You missed that?
