Clearly, our government is too large. EVERYONE knows a frickin' DHS Director!

On a happier note, I picked up another Roscoe no-home. I really need to send a thank you card to the two dealers who couldn't take these basses.

This one is another LG-3005, this time a Box Elder Burl top and a Cocobolo fretboard.



Both basses should be here on Tueday next week, they were slightly delayed at Roscoe HQ. You have no idea how badly that is KILLING me right now. A whole weekend MORE to wait...

I'm so giddy over Roscoe that I spent my morning listing all of the Roscoes that I have on order... I can't wait for those "Coming Soon" signs to turn into real pictures. "Hey, Gard! Is it done yet? ... is it done yet?.... is it done yet?"

I'll be very interested to see the SKB3005 when it gets done. The specs on that one are *very* close to what I'd order (only off by a millimeter here and there, and an inch somewhere else).

I'm just hoping the Buckeye one sells before Christmas... otherwise, it might be going home with me in January

That's how I got my Warwick Thumb NT 5... it hung around and hung around, talked to me every day ("buy me! buy me!"). Three months later, I caved.

That's the ONLY downside to my job, sometime's I'm my own best customer. Don't tell my wife!

Hey Gary, I managed to light a fire under el jefe this afternoon and both basses are now Blacksburg-bound!



Clint, Ryan (my stepson, not Ryan L! ) and I are posting this from the front porch on my super-cool new iPhone while handing out Halloween candy - thanks man!!

Sorta like a certain Streamer that was on your website did to me..............

I have a feeling that once you get it at your store, it might not have a chance to sell by X-mas, before you decide that it needs to go home with you.

That's funny, I was answering PMs and surfing TB on my iPhone while Linda and I were sitting on our porch handing out candy. I hope you enjoy it, I sure love mine.

You can also hook it up to your wireless network or any other place that offers free wireless, it makes surfing a lot faster.
