Hey Chris.

Congrats, that looks fantastic!!! Did you put the V-Cut Bigsby on or was it already on there? I'm thinking of swapping mine to the V-Cut as well, I love that look. Hope you're having a great time playing it.

Regards,

René

A V-Cut would change the sound of the guitar? Who knew?? Well, maybe I'll keep it the way it is then.

Thanks Tavo

If indeed trying to squeeze blood from a turnip has a yield quotient
satisfactory to your personal demand, then it can be construed as
beneficial...

take it from confuz-us:

house."

My new acquisition from Monday...

An Ace Tone Top-5 combo organ.

My Farfisa is awesome, but really heavy to gig with. This is a similar sound in a smaller package.

Gibson ES-335
Gibson Jumbo EC30 BKE
Gibson Les Paul Classic

"And that's all I need . . . . and this chair and this thermos . . . "

cheers

It looks like you've downsized your collection quite a bit Shark! I seem to remember a lot more fiddles.

Working on it - wife said I had to. But, at least I got the L4.

No more Gretsch guitars at home at all. My 6120 and Jet are gone.

Selling some others too!

I may do a shameless self promotion once they are up on ebay.

In the meantime - a preview of coming attractions for sale.

Bigsby B6 Tailpiece
Fender B54 Banjo
Ovation Balladeer
Greg Bennett LaSalle JZ2
Epiphone Joe Pass Emporer II

I wouldn't refer to it as shameless self promotion. I call it leveraging your network. In fact, I would rather sell to a Lounge Cat than to a stranger on flea bay. The folks here are gear aficianados and would take good care of the stuff.

After I had some time yesterday I finally finished my Hotrod-classical guitar.

Here's a Pic of it:
