Hi Penny,
I bought a magnetic pickup from you at Get Rooted 2014. I hope you don't mind if I ask a couple of questions. We did not have time to talk on the day and wanted to listen to more of Justin - how good is he?
You said I should run a wire from the bridge to the back of one of the pots. Does it matter if it is the volume or tone control and I solder in any particular place on the pot?
I am a novice at this but think I have it worked out and am having lots of fun.
Thanks
Brad

Peggy,

 

I'm taking this discussion off the forum page "How have CBG's Changed your life".  I have been pretty amazed about your attacking posts to a candid post of mine that I've met a few good friends.  It was meant a positive, but you didn't read it that way.  Instead of dropping it, you were the one who went on the attack.  Then you deleted a post I made, explaining my original post.  Now, you have gone on the attack again. 

 

I have to wonder (and ask) if you are not the one with a negative attitude?  I apologize if I have offended you personally, but if you (carefully) reread the post, nothing was aimed your way until after you hammered me.  I have not wish to cause you any distress.  If you want to see my story in fullness, check my page, my posts, what I have contributed.  Then at least you will have context, before you go on attack.

 

Peace,

 

Sam

Ya it's "Eye Lashes"... a whole new meaning. Good idea with the safety glasses. With my builds a Hazmat suit might be useful as well...

Explosion is the right term. When they let go it's as loud as they get! Wild! You're always apprehensive when first tuning a new build. I often break strings birthing new instruments, but when the bridge blows it's special terror...

Hey Penny, nice music videos. That fluffy tin really rocks. I still lack the gear to make videos. Maybe soon for me. I've got one of my own tunes posted now. It's off my new release "Holy Smokes". Say, did that bridge let loose while you were pickin. I've had that happen twice now. Even with the soundboard sanded to raw wood. Crap happens. .. Dave

Hey Penny, thanks for the friends request. I'd be proud to be your friend. I like your stuff. I'll be listening to that video next.... Dave

Honestly, I despair at people's lack of adventure when it comes to food. It was a GREAT meal. I pulled up better than everyone else, despite being the last man standing, so that should tell you something about my liver.

If I was a smarty pants I would not have drunk solidly from 1pm to 6am. Broken.

Great pics. 

How was the ol' furry Man?

Open mic sounds cool.

Was glad that storm missed us. No rain this year and only one day last year. Unbelievable!

Ha there, sorry to take so long to say hi. What are you working on now?

Hi Penny,

I finally got my summer/autumn/winter project finished - longest time ever to make one little guitar!!!http://www.cigarboxnation.com/photo/front-side-finished more pics on my page - I found sticking a small frame around the preamp helps hide the fact it has a big curve on it for a regular guitar.

Hope you are well,

David
