Happy New Year everyone!
As promised - my Epi Classic Pro with Hipshot USA tuners and Hipshot bridge installed. Super easy to install and great upgrades:

Real nice, like the looks of that bridge and those tuners ! Wasn't really thinking of changing the bridge when I ordered the XTender last week, but... the day's not over yet. Thx for the pics :-)
 
:thumbsup: It is supposed to be reminiscent of an English garden party - cucumber sandwiches... I don't recall ever having had a lot to drink at a garden party (doesn't mean it didn't happen).


My "rail" gin is Bombay Sapphire and my "rail" scotch is Glen Fiddich.
wouldn't be a real English garden party without some of this..:thumbsup:

Did the Hendricks and Cucumber thing last night (keep it clean guys). Was much better than Hendricks with a lime. I can see it for special occasions since I rarely have cucumbers in the fridge. I always have limes and tonic water in the fridge so Beefeater will continue to be my everyday G&T mix. I'll save the Hendricks for special occasions.
Thanks for the tip.
I had a Hendricks Martini at a restaurant last week with a hint of dry vermouth and a lemon twist. Delicious!
 
My girlfriend had this laying around the house and gave it to me. It's a Sears Roebuck 5 string banjo, with bakelite frame and resonator. I believe it dates to the early 1960's and was made by Harmony in the USA. I cleaned it up, glued the 5th string tuner into the neck and tuned her up, old grimy strings and all. Sounds really good! Thunderjo maybe? :smug:
