We do have brown recluse spiders. That is why I always wear gloves when moving firewood or lumber. I probably should wear gloves when gardening, but hands in dirt feels too good to wear gloves.

I do what? Um. Only rumors. Do not believe rumors. They get you in trouble.

The baritone Telebird is finally alive. What I thought was a volume pot turned out to be a blend pot. It is a pitfall of raiding the parts drawer. And I wired the switch backwards so it is opposite of the pickup that is on. Neither is a problem. Those issues will be fixed soon enough. Screwing something up is a requirement. The Bigsby makes stringing it a PITA, but it sure is fun to play. It probably will not get much use. I do not care. It is its own unique thing, a bit like the P-Bird.
The Epiphone Thunderbird Classic Pro IV is a neck through.
The Epiphone Thunderbird IV is a bolt on neck.
I’ve never heard of an Epiphone Thunderbird Classic IV.
And a butterfly IV needs to be inserted carefully.
Black pickguard arrived today (Asian eBay seller)! That and some black Gibson screws and Gold tophat knobs (both via Reverb), make my '19 Gibby T-Bird pop!
I received one from my wife for Christmas. Really nice! Tiny print not as nice as the big pics.
Pretty sure that there is an ahem in there...

Well, impromptu noise session today. That was fun. unfortunately, when we do it spur of the moment, we don't think about what songs to do and we always have trouble remembering what songs we know (yeah, it is as bad as that sounds).
And also took 30 minutes to learn to play Taxman. Official excuse - every one needssome several Beatles in their repertoire. Real reason would get me banned, but well, that is probably enough said.

Compare and contrast with your Casady. We have to get @fasterpussycat off the fence about buying one.
Anybody use the Gibson Nubuck guitar strap?
If so, any feedback? Pix?

Every time I have looked at Gibson straps, I have marvelled at how expensive they are and how cheap they feel. An impressive price to quality ratio. I would much rather get a real leather strap from another manufacturer. My $0.02 and advice worth that much. I have been very impressed with these straps.

No padding, but the leather conforms to me in a way that is very comfortable.
I'm not on the fence, merely pacing myself.
