Hey I know, go over to The Gear Page and say something political or religious!

Then count how long before you get a infraction.

I like to tell people that God speaks to me and watch their reaction. :D

I built a tele out of spare parts over the weekend.

I posted that exciting news at two other "music forums" and got not a single reply/comment. I guess I bored them? :wink:

Ok! be right back. Ok, I'm back.

Less than a second. Actually, this is how I banned myself from TGP...

I opened up an email account on a service I don't recall. I went into my prefs on TGP and changed my email addy to that email. I changed my password to a random string of monkey typing, which I pasted in to confirm. I closed that email account.

Go over to TGP and post factual information about an amp that does not
include the words "mojo" "articulate" etc etc.
You are gone!

I want to learn engraving so I can make and engrave my own hardware. I am not so good on metal. I am pretty good with pearl so far.

I always wanted a Les Paul with roses for bindings, and a Tele with English Scroll on carbon steel. I have an Exquire that weighs about 3 pounds.. I bet that Tele would weigh 20.

The gold leaf paint I used on that one is almost impossible to look at in sunlight. It is wild.. very reflective. 8) ahhh..

DO NOT PAINT THAT GUITAR!!! AAAAAAH! BACK OFF! I love it! I would be tempted to hit it with some leather dye.. BUT DON'T!

Found a bunch of pics from around 10 years ago. Here is an Explorer built for Billy Gibbons that he never got around to. Split headstock and Pelham with binding. I hate this guitar, but others love it. Too many stuffs going on.

Pisser. That is about $400 worth of pattern grade mahogany through the saw.

I used bronze rod slabs that a guy impressed with some roman coin design once. I wish I had pics of that. I like metal ok.. I like no markers just as much as anything though.
