Here is what I do for entertainment , I write words for songs. Here is one that I wrote and got some friends from Fandalism to collab on and we came up with this. http://fandalism.com/alucard666/cdH5
Thanks, and will be looking into a CBG from you soon, changing jobs more income better work more free time, better chance to purchase one of your CBG, also am going to get some books and cd' s, on how, to play,what to play just to get the main stuff down, then go hog wild and make up my own tunes. :)
Thanking you for the Friendship!! Cheers!!!RL
thanx fer the friend request, beat me to it....live strong...feel same as u , gonna take more than that to take me down,,,,,Arkie tuff...haha
Hey Buddy, Glad we became friends. Really looking forward to the new build. Enjoy, Keni Lee
I use a sharp triangle file and just cut vees, and fit each string by just going a little deeper for the big ones. I haven't had any problems with buzz yet!!
glue up some scraps of that burled ash, a little sanding, and slap a fret on top, voila---badass bridge to match a badass guitar---never liked the bolt thing!!!
Thank you sir.
Greets from Simpsonville! Nice collection. Likes the round ones.
