No problem and Wow, I guess I should have heard of such a successful songwriter.

Anybody know a source for single tuning machines? I need one Schaller BMF to complete a set. Going on my 7ender P-Bass with Lollar Thunderbird pick-ups.

Would the Schaller website work? Or is it limited to EU only?

Been there. It sounds cool to visit but once you have seen it, the novelty wears off very quickly.

I always feel that way when I go see the tourist-y stuff while traveling. Mt. Rushmore, Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls... whatever... this is me.

Indeed. My parents always said that Saturday morning cartoon rot your brain, but we learned valuable lessons from them. Like don't eat free birdseed, umbrellas do not stop falling rocks, you don't start falling until you look down...

Why on Earth would you "like" this post, GP? Something has gone wrong but it can be fixed.

I just woke up. I'll fix that....Corrected.

Y know, in all the years I watched Wile E. Coyote get outsmarted by "that bird", I never once attached a rocket to my back, or made wings, or painted a hole in the ground or a tunnel onna wall. And neither did anyone I knew and we all survived. The new versions are so sanitized they aren't funny any more.<Addendum@1115>I did however, learn to "watch out for that tree!"

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately 1 tuning machine, shipped to the US, is about $55. Ouch!

I’m continually surprised at what I’ve never heard of
And welcome! I also have a burst VP and will be gigging it tonight.

There was something that happened in one of the build threads, but no clue what as the mod had already removed anything related to it. I don't know what is going on but hope that @Christine hangs out with us. Great humor and fantastic build threads!!!!
