I hope that worked. I'm not always so good with copying pictures. It's on the face of book if it didn't work.

Anyway ladies and germs... I give you, "The Oddball"! I don't have it yet, but I can't thank and praise Keith, Gard and the rest of the enchanted crew at Roscoe. I knew it would have lovely grain, but man'o man is that sick. That's all I can say for now. I gonna go stare at the pics for a couple of hours before I go to work.

Thanks Gard!

I am absolutely gobsmacked. It's got so much character! When the gloss goes on, daaayyyyuuumm!

Looks like a certain guitar shop is gonna have a box of assorted deliciousness coming it's way in the near future...

Exactly, that's the SEALER!

Wait until that thing starts getting finish!!!

...as for sudsy goodness, we never EVER say "no" to that idea...



...and, we're still working on something in June, so keep your eyes peeled!! When that happens, you need to come for it - and you don't buy brew.

Is that standard bridge PU placement or different? Looks closer to the bridge, but I'm not up on eyeballing things.



God Bless, Ray

Ray, it's in exactly the standard bridge spot - not having the neck pickup throws off the visual balance...

Gard- Dummy me! Just saw this now (4:55 PM) after the Facebook post- doh! Now I see and me likey. Damon, good day for me as well; Gard posted the neck blank of my new baby on FB as well. Y'know, all this typing and looking at hot babes (of the 5 and 6 string variety) makes me awful thirsty. I think I will leave the office for the day, go home and grab a Cascazilla!

Atta boy, Pete. You enjoy that!

@Gard-A June GTG sounds good to me. My tattoo artist and main man Byran Bancroft will be back in upstate NY in late April. That gives me time to recover from that. Mayhem always ensues when we get together.

Hey Gard! I just saw the pics of my bass in all its glossy glory on Facebook. Would you be so kind as to post them for the rest of the boys and girls? Thanks homie!

Always happy to help a fellow low-life and beer hound out:





...and to help us all cool off after staring into that heat:

They got that stuff at my local tasting room. I'll give it a spin next time I'm there. I'm guessing it's barleywineish? If a bunch of you guys should ever venture to NYC for whatever reason, I know a place that is stocked... Well!

Oh yeah, my beauty! It almost looks like porcelain and figured maple had a love child. The figure POPS now! I'm so psyched!!!

I ain't afraid of nuthin, my "Shalom-boy"

Also, Damon is mighty nice to me. You forget, I brought you a (fairly warm from a long day trip from Jupiter, Florida to Greensboro, North Carolina) Turbo Dog last year . Who knows, if a certain Bubinga SKB is made ahead of schedule, a certain someone, in a certain small NC town, who happens to be building a new house, just might receive a nice house warming gift.

...home now, done with work. Let's see what I have in the beer fridge!
