So glad for the good update! Certainly a relief to get such news that everything is progressing as normal.Update: (after seeing that cast again~) Had the (2) stitches out on Monday and met with the surgeon. The incision is healing well and should be fully healed by the end of the month, so still limited use. The Dr said in a year it should be pretty much back to normal. It was the first good news I'd heard - I was starting to feel it was going to stay the same. So change will be incremental and subtle, but just knowing this made my day. In 12 months, even if it's not 100% better, it will be much better than it is now.
Rehearsal tonight - we rehearsed last Thursday and I was able to play - I normally have a light left-hand touch which helps. Zach and Kirstin were feeling much better after their bouts w/Covid and we worked on 3 new songs. Next Tuesday I have a rehearsal with Cherie auditioning a new drummer for Bond Girl.
I'm still getting my midi-keyboard together (ordered cables) and will learn our songs using it over time. Onward and upward!![]()

Close but no cigar…
Welcome to the New Gibson Brands
…no bass pickup offerings
How hard would it have been to offer a ProBucker or a Tbird+ pickup, heck even a Gibson SG pickup might interest a few people.
Did you mean cleaver?All my clever responses will get me banned or the TC shut down, so...
Nice! just don't drop them...
If you’re worried about it, definitely don’t buy an Explorer!

Does that also apply with Flatwounds?Round cores will typically be more flexible and more smooth sounding, bigger and slightly less top end sounding, generally. Hex, will be stiffer and more aggressive. I'm sure there are exceptions, but in my experience this is always the case.
I'm happy that things are looking better for you. Patience and move forwards, don't let the recovery period get you down. Sorry for the late reply, class has been pure insanity got one teacher that certainly either wants to kill me, or make sure I get ZERO personal free time....On another note; my oldest nephew brought the flu with him last Friday and by Sunday we were all sick here in my house, so that was fun.I was gifted the M-Audio Midi keyboard but had to buy a few things to use & transport it. The Yamaha FB-01 (recommended by a friend) has lots of fun banks. Looking forward to learning how to use/play it.

I don't like Explorers, but that sunburst one looks mighty fine.
