Hi all, working on my very first build. Not a musician, oddly enough- just a muultimedia freak. Building a geetar for my hunny, but loving the process of screwing up and finding creative fixes, etc.
Glad there's a PNW community- this seems like a hobby that fits our national neighborhood. American primitive.

Sounds like fun. I'll see if I can sneak north up the interstate without boss lady findin' out. Did a 4-year internment at Lewinski and Clark ... err... Lewis and Marx ... ah, that other college up the hill.

Go to buddyguy.net, NOT buddyguy.com. Buddyguy.com is "Buddy Guy's Legends," a music venue with a menu in Chicago. Buddy Guy is (was?) touring with B. B. King. Now THAT'S a double feature not to be missed.
