I'm guessing we'll see updates in a couple of weeks.

It'll be kid-in-a-candy-store time once the updates start hitting the news page. Well, more along the lines of kid-with-face-plastered-up-against-the-glass-waiting-for-the-candy-store-to-open time.

DR Hi-Beams 40-120 set | Wow! That's going to look and sound great! Is the headless Cliff's new single cut? Your bass must be in the same batch as my fretted Ball 5. So yeah, Novemberish. Looks like Thanksgiving is going to be better than Christmas this year! |

Fond memories of your old girlfriend Donna who moved to Los Angeles?
I think it's fair to say that I'm stunned. |
