    Well I did grab my SG and played for about an hour, that is all I could handle at this time. It felt great to pick p one of my babies again.  Was a great boost to my wanting to get back 100%.

    Hope you all are doing well , it kinda sux that my wife has had to carry the mantle for the past few weeks, as yard work waits for no one. But she is a champ, and does not complain.

    Hi gang, been away for quite some time. Had serious cervical neck issues to the point that I could barely move.  Did not want to even get out of bed, and playing guitar was the furthest thing on my mind.

    Well. two weeks ago wentin and had fusion on c5-6,to c6-7, and I am kicking myself in the butt that I did not do this years ago. Abl to move and barely any pain. Had my post op follow up and  doc showed me the x-rays, and what a difference, still have to wear the neck collar for four more weeks. I may try to pull out my acoustic tomorrow and try playing for a little time. All that to say glad to be back and join in the forums.

    Chumming the water eh Pappy? :-) Anyone care to guess the final bid? I'll go first, $2850. A better case and condition would have taken it past the three.

     

    It will be interesting to see where this one ends up,I have set my limit and waiting for the last hour. Using a bid snipe and we will see what the final ends up.More than likely this one is going to go beyond what I am willing to spend. But that is yet to be determined. Last few minutes of bidding should be interesting. I was contracted by eBay in their early years and would teach car dealerships how to set up eBay and some of the pitfalls to watch out for . It was a great gig,but I grew tired of the constant travel and ended up leaving after a few years. I am still in contact with a few of the folks that have left eBay motors,and we commiserate about the good old days.

    On several occasions I was invited to attend round tables with the former CEO of eBay,Meg Whitman,and let me tell you she was all business,no nonsense,take no prisoners.Despite all her success a very down to earth person.But I babble,as to the guitar,it is what it is.[sneaky]

    Ok I know this is for Hummingbird owners,but I am looking at one on eBay. If any of you would take a look at this one,in my opinion the price is right so far ,but the guitar looks a little beat up.Need a knowledgeable eye to give opinion,so this seemed like the right place to come .

    [thumbup][thumbup][thumbup][thumbup][thumbup]That is what I will make for the grandkids tonight for supper. Thanks for the inspiration,have not done Boboli in ages.And the kids can help.

    Boboli! [thumbup] If you don't know what I mean it's the best pre-made pizza crust ever. Add pizza sauce, fresh mozzarella and toppings of your choice... bake at 450 on a pizza stone... BOOM!... great homemade pizza.
