In 18 spline, I still have one set of silver and one set of black left.
I also have a bunch of 24 spline sets (fits Gibsons). 2 gold sets, one black and one silver.

I pretty muck quit cold turkey during the pandemic because I was drinking way too much of the stuff. That was a favorite.
Local guy that taught Starbucks how to roast. Apparently, he didn’t tell them everything.
Yeah, anything he wants to be called. I just don't want to get hurt....or worse....
Of course he's actually one of the nicest people on earth.
Or is that his "cover."
Rats. Thought there was a white set. Thanks, though.
Well The Man with the Golden Gun was…. Ok.
It did feature some Holdens in the background with many many Toyota Crowns. But it also had a seemingly all AMC car chase. The baddies in a Matador X coupe, Bond in a Hornet coupe (which did a jump with spin) and the local cops in Matadors painted as black n whites.
Thailand is a RHD country with traffic driving on the left… except for all the American cars that were LHD (those I noticed anyway); the general traffic was on the left except in part of the chase when it seemed they were on the right hand side of the road.
Oh the Matador X reversed into a set of plane wings and motor setup and was able to fly away with Miss Goodnight in the boot.

Wanted to give a shout out to my luthier bro Neil Sargent out of Houston, Texas. Dude lives in his shop- has a dorm fridge, a hot plate, and a microwave.
We hit it off owing to a common appreciation for sci/fi and redheads.
These days I mostly go to his place just to visit and have lunch, and discuss aforementioned subjects-
But last week I took in my new TBird in for a Hipshot Xtender install along with my Steinberger XT2-DB which needed a trussrod adjustment and action lowering-
It took him about ten minutes to do each- when I asked how much-
“Ten bucks”
I gave him a 20 despite his protests stating that though we be friends, it’s his living-
Also, a while back a gave him an Acoustic BB-20 (12 inch speaker if you can believe that!) on permanent loan for bass customers’ sound checks to supplement the Vox combo he had for guitars-
And hooked him up with this 24 x 36 poster-
There’s my bro holding a 1960 or so Gibson ES175 with pickups that had the PAF stickers on them-

Cold pizza is better than cold turkey anyway.
Who doesn’t like a shapely backside- I admit I’m a little shy regarding my new Thunderbird- after all we just met-
However I feel a bit more comfortable sharing this pic of my German girlfriend Eva Karr-Bronck.
Here you see her in the prone position receiving a much needed 9 volt transfusion for her active electrics-
