Saw this on the Stay-In-Tune string Facebook page. I'm assuming there will be a signature set for him.

Wow, very interesting. Also interesting he plays nickel. For some reason I assumed he'd use SS.

At the risk of provoking a mod and more motorcycle discussions :p... an off topic message about stupid cyber criminals. I got an email from Experian this evening that BofA made a hard credit inquiry on me today. I don't do business with BofA, so that was a tip off. I called their fraud department and was told someone ordered a $19k credit line Visa card and was approved. OK, but they used my address as the ship to address for the card. I verified that the card numbers etc. were not given out and the thief would have to receive the card before they were able to use it. So, how did they think they were going to steal from me? Dumb arse...

Had a situation similar last month with a subscription made with my card, I had never heard of the place that the subscription was made, and it was done on a sunday, so that was a huge tip off, as I never use the card on weekends, and I barely touch it throughout the week. Called the bank and got it sorted out quickly.

A friend of/or the identity thief might work at the local post office and be able to intercept any BofA mail coming your way. You would never have missed it since you weren’t expecting it.

Love that! :thumbsup:

Did you say where you got them, and I missed it?

Thanks Kara. I like it as well--since there was nothing gold on the bass other than those knobs. Well, the Epi TRC. Maybe I'll ask Irv for a Silver Epi one day. Right now others buys are higher on the list. (New pickguard for my black Pbass which have gotten really yellow, and not in a good aged way.)

I got them here:
Silver Imperial Top Hat Bell Reflector 2 Volume 2 Tone Knobs Set for USA Gibson Les Paul SG Electric Guitar | Reverb
