Haha so you wear your skirts scottish?

Good Lord - you mean our queen dresses in full highland tradition?

No, no! I usually end up wearing some undies then pantyhose then some "fancy" undies like frilly or sparkly just for such an occasion. Still' it's emabarassing :oops:
 
I recently found out that even my superleightweight Ibby with its toothpick headstock starts to dive a little bit, when I wear more "slippery" shirts. So no hawaii shirts, silk or velvet.
You have to solve that problem. Shiny polyester is the only possible fashion statement you can make unless you are our Queen. Since there's only one of those, it's all about the polyester for the rest of us. It's a challenge at first, but the result is worth the effort.

Welp, Chocolate Love is wearing new tuners: flat black, blacker than the blackest black that ever blacked, the answer is: none...none more black, black on black with some black added to the black blackity black black Hipshot Ultralites. According to Matt at Music Central in Hopkinsville, KY, they were a drop in fit...although the Epi peg head holes weren't exactly to spec and required a wee bit of cleaning up, removing some overspray and glue to have the tuning machines fit. he said a couple of them were press fit, and the other two almost were. What a night and day difference! And, according to Matt, Hipshot were mondo mega super cool to deal with as a reseller. They build to order and still had them to MC a week earlier than expected.

It's a good thing I totally deserve this. :laugh:
