Went to Duluth, used GPS to find the place. But somehow wrong street name was entered. I ended up at a private residence that I thought was someone selling crafts out of house. knocked on door and stepped in…then realized I made mistake and was standing in a living room. Hurried back to car, this guy comes out in a bathrobe wondering what was going on. Think Dave would have got a laugh out of that

At 3:06am on November 20, 2021, Uncle John said…: Tony, you put me onto a good idea. Or at least I think it is. Search out Mike Orr on FB and message him with what you need. If for some reason that does not work, message me. I kind of forgot that I am FB friends with Mike.

At 2:12am on July 28, 2018, Uncle John said…: Oh! You are Dave's buddy, Tony. I think I've heard your on videos and for sure like that potato chip bass and the crooked neck eagle head build. It's good to have you for a CBN friend.

At 8:47am on July 3, 2018, Dave Lynas said…: Hi Tony. You have Mike Orr’s address for fret boards. The necks come from eBay under cigar box parts, necks. Look for them there. I’ll be over tonight to see how it went. ... Dave
