Belinda, I get into the nation through the email notices. When I try to pull up the nation by www.cigarboxguitarnation.com, I always get a clubhouse by Ted Crocker. I don't know what is going on.

You are funny---what cords----didn't you have a cord to your vintage radio? I think I will keep them, they are neat.

Dianne, The Nation still seems to be here..from my end anyway. Surely you must be on it for your comment to have got on here??

Not sure John is making them at the moment, but yeah email him and check. Ah no, suppose you can always put them back on eBay!!..what are cords??

Paul, yeah weird!!

Hey Belinda, what happened to cigarboxguitarnation? When I try to enter it, I pull up this clubhouse. What is going on? Where is the old nation?

How do I get the prices of reddogg guitars---email him? The guitar you have really sounds great.

After reading a little of the converting radios to amps blog; I think I have bought the wrong radios---with cords. I should have read it first.
