Dood, not intended! I love that tele!

I have some 'nice' guitars. I mostly play the other ones. Workhorse wins!

I wish I could find the drive with all my mando pics. I don't understand the codes on the tape.. and I wrote it myself. Durrrr..

Cool Nick! Love that, and that head.. the logo is awesome!

There ain't no way to "show up" a tele. They are ALL beautiful. Every single one of them!

You've done something on your tele I've not seen before .... brass position marker inlays. Nice! I'm sure it was difficult to do, but man-o-man, that is cool! 8)

Wow! Look at all those trees!

You have reminded me of my craziest thing EVER. I finished a '64 strat in leaves. i collected leaves from a bunch of broad leaf trees, tacked them overlapping all over it, shrunk plastic over that, and waited 4 months for it to go brown before lacquer. I called it Autum Brown.

I traded it for a python covered other strat which I traded for an SG Les Paul which I traded for a Byrdland and an L-5N to a rock star and I sold those guitars to buy a stupid car and this story ends with a '29 OM-28, a '19 F-4, and lunch for a week.

Actually it was very simple.I just couldn't polish them with out getting black stuff all over the maple.Would probaly work much better on rosewood.The only reason I did it is cause i didn't know where to get pearl dots at the time.

All the water here is brown and stinks. You can't tell if it's tanic and brackish, or raw sooowage.

It taskes like nuclear waste though.. how confusing.

No, you mean 'as not to cause friction with people who like such things'.

I can't tell the shape of the head from that angle .... is that a water moccasin?

I had a run-in with a cottonmouth when I lived outside of New Orleans many years ago. Venomous snakes and I don't get along too well.

I have a venomous snake response. I think that is a banded water snake though.
