Thanks guys!

Yeah, I'm getting tons of suggestions for grandpa nicknames ...

It's seems that the determining just the right name to be called is much more important to the Grandmother than the Grandfather

....I don't care what he calls me, I just want him to jump out his parents arms and run to me when he sees me!

I can hear him now......Grandpa, can I play the Roscoe???

That would be cool. If you can afford the hookup, I'd get Gard to find one that was built on Grant's Birthday.

That would be an especially cool gift, when he's old enough of course. And if you were to use it in the meantime, It'd mean even more.

Congradulations Joe, Gotta teach the little guy the ins and outs of the low end

Hope you guys have a blast together.

God Bless, Ray

We'll I'll tell you, if the economy will turn it's nose in an upward position for a while, I'll certainly be heading that way!

Congrats Joe. Being a Grampa is a blast, and you get to impart a great deal of wisdom to two generations now.

Congratulations Joe!! Just remember that no matter what he calls you; Papa, Papoo, Paw Paw, etc. when he starts acting up or makes a stinky.. You just give him back to mom and dad!

That would have put the delivery date on or right around his 18th birthday in two weeks..

Actually, after the last build I can't make fun of the "two more weeks" comment. I'm not sure if I was ever told "2 more weeks" but the bass definitely arrived at the house when promised and exceeded all of my expectations.

But that comment still makes me laugh!
