A lot of money for some goth bling. I think that they gave you that high estimate because they don’t want you to modify it.
I really tried to listen to all of it but I had to bail at 11:17. On a positive note (see what I did there), I really liked the guitar part.
We watch Homicide Hunter - Lt Joe Kenda on the tube. We're bumfuzzled at the variation in sentences and the severity of the crime. Some guy gets 7 yrs for murder and another gets 15 for aggravated assault. What the heck is up with that? Somebody should get "Equalized".
!
Or they don't want the business.
Or, don't know how to do it...who knows?
Worked on the "A Foggy Day" arrangement the past couple of days. Intro and head are pretty much done. I'll start on horn backgrounds for the solo section and maybe get a start on the horn soli section tomorrow.

Never heard of him. Bought the series on Kindle for $4.95. Give me something to read on the plane.
I have spent hours, days looking for a 7ender Jazz neck with black blocks. I can't find it.

I wonder if johnk_10 would take on the mod or build a replacement neck. Might be worth asking him.

Speaking of juries…….
I have been tapped for jury duty twice, but I never got to serve on a jury because I was related to a police officer (brother) and personally knew quite a few officers because of my brother.
One time…
I was selected as a potential jury member and had to go through the process where either attorney or the judge can block one from serving. The defense counsel was a VERY prominent attorney based in Cincinnati and well known throughout the U.S. When it was his turn to challenge potential jurors he asked a very common question, “Is anyone here related to or friends with a police officer?” Of course I raised my hand and he asked me to explain.
I replied, “My brother is Sgt. xxxx xxxxxx of the Cincinnati Police Department.”
What I expected was that he would turn to the judge and say something along the lines of, “Your honor, I would like to thank Mr. xxxxxx for his time and excuse him from this jury.” I expected that since every time I was asked “the police question”, the reaction of the defense attorney was the same.
That was not how he reacted. He quickly turned to the judge and said in a loud, very tense voice, “Judge, we don’t need him. He can leave now.” and put extra emphasis on the word “now”.
That evening, I called my brother and told him the story since I was confused. My brother started laughing almost uncontrollably. When he finally stopped laughing I asked him what he was laughing about.
He said, “I arrested him last night for DUI!”
Then it all made sense.

You are 100% correct I shouldn't modify the original neck. How is it I can find 59 black block Precision necks and not one Jazz?
I noticed that as well when I poked around. I don’t know what gives.

The waking up process is interesting, not just opening your eyes and stretching. The body runs diagnostic tests when coming out of REM sleep.
Dogs do yoga, salute to the sun. Then they want to go outside.
The REM Sleep Stage May Play a Role in Causing ….
