For those that don't know the story , i recently made a guitar for Dan Sleep after he was diagnosed , and I'm glad he had some time to enjoy it before his passing . my plan was to get a guitar from him if/ when he got better . Sadly.... that never happened . But "Downtown Vinnie" heard of my wishes and hooked me up with a guitar of Dan's that a service member friend of his had . and they both decided to gift it to me . Just goes to show how cool some folks can be in this family we call CBN ;-) thanx from the bottom of my heart guys ;-)

All nice builds Fine job Pick good playing Man
Nice Build By Dan to be Cherish for sure Dan Resting With The Angels now
yeah , that was the idea John . even though i was talking to him pretty much nightly from the night of him complaining of "side pains" and us both thinking / hoping it was "gas" . to his hospital visit calling it "chronic nausea" , to coming back home , then returning to the hospital and getting the cancer diagnosis ..... then boom ! . gone,... all within a couple of months . i was still struck with the disbelief , it's like someone hung up on us . :-/
Pick, if the abrupt ending was symbolic of Dan's, that is really good.
Thanks Brian , back atcha ;-)
Cheers John , the abrupt ending was ...."symbolic."
What a wonderful story AP, albeit tinged with sadness. Like you say, folks in these parts are very cool, yourself included....A lovely thing you tried to do there, and a beautiful git to remember your friend by as well. Thanks for sharing.
The story touches my heart. Some great gits by Pick and Dan and good but ABRUPTLY ending music! (Toonus interuptus).
thanx guys ,
