Hey Jeff, got your address. I will mail as soon as I get a padded envelope. I will let u know when it is mailed. Yes, Gitty is fast----super.
Gator repellent----I needed that when the gator took my leg.LOL
Good luck on the repellent. Just one question----who is going to test it for you?LOL
Timing fits ....im still moving my stuff. Sorry i been dealing with alot of people complaining about me to me and so im just going to do updates and find artist here im not going to be deeply involved in other thing here...kinda feel like im not welcome or some thing if you only could see my emails.
Hey Jeff! Thanks for stopping by and asking after me. I am still around, but have been struggling with some health issues as of late that have made me limit my time online and focus more on my work. I hope to get back into the swing of thing real soon! Thanks so much for stopping by!!!! Best, Lana
Jeff, I don't know how much they are. Do you? But that is a great idea to split it up if the cost is not too much. I need the jumbo gold fret wire for the zero frets. Let me know, I am interested.
i have lots of ten tuner sets left i will hold on to a set for you just in case you dont get in on them i have a bag of used pot luck tuners these are take offs and incomplete sets from guitar repairs i would part with them for cheap thanks for referring me to the cigar nation...cory
thanks for ur kind message Jeff :)
I've learned to cope without that extra 'f' but thanks for caring...
its probly 1/2 million keystrokes and thirty something ball point pens I save in a life time ;)
take care..
love the Dick Tracy box, awesome
Hey Jeff,
I'm working on two three at once. they're all oak/pine laminates for the neck. I'm taking my time for several reasons. I will try and get some photos up soon. This hobby consumes my daydreaming time.
Thanks for the friend invite. I liked your blog and just couldn't help myself with adding to it. New music is in the can and hope to get it up soon. Still not happy with a couple things on one song and want to get it right to the tune in my head if ya know what I'm talking about!
Hi Jeff, and thanks for the friendship :o)
Im flattered that I inspire you, though Im jus another hack builder having fun.
Like ya Dick Tracy tin - those tin-tars are real loud huh? Iv got a few sat waiting for conversion - a 1940s Esso petrol can, an ammo tin, couple of drinks tins. Just got to find the time...
Keep up the good work
Ben
Hi, wow thanks for buying stuff!!!....did the whole MySace thing and the widget to buy things as a bit of an exercise in how to do all that...was a bit crazy when we'd only done one song : -)...wasn't sure anyone would actually buy it,lol. Have a few songs of my own I've written and want to get round to recording...these CBG's seem to bring stuff out....and my cousin has more ideas for Blue Beluga!.....
Thank you for your comments. Mine was built from old parts, a 1935 National guitar neck and an old S.S. Pierce import box. Also, James Millinchuk is a real strong builder. This one just needs about 80 or 90 years and it will become magical too. LOL Enjoy.
