SHAZAM. It might work

I have several new sets in the cabinet right next to my humidor. Something must be wrong.

If I was going to consider buying another acoustic, which I am not, I would be looking for a cutaway. But that's just me. If your son plays rock, he might appreciate the accessibility of the upper frets. Just sayin.

Repoed means the goods was "not paid for". When a retailer is going under their suppliers are entitled to go and physically repossess inventory that is not paid for. Any merchandise that was not PIA or COD is up for grabs. If the stuff was paid for the vendor could buy it back from the...

Um, I use strings.:nevreness:

As we say stateside, "it ain't the arrow, it's the indian".

Have you met my wife? She works all day with her laptop and headset but she absolutely hates computer technology. Every upgrade comes with kicking, screaming and tears. In the dead of night while she visits the sand man I sneak in the darkness and update her software and put in new memory...

My 74 D40 I bought in Detroit in 75. It had a couple blems on the front. It was $300 but they knocked it down to $250 and threw in a case for a total of $305.

My wife works as a legal document editor. In other words she makes court reporters' transcripts legible (scopist). She gets paid by checks in the mail and PayPal. She uses Excel to track her billing and receipts. She gets 1099s from her clients and sends them along to the IRS with our return...

Nope, he used to build 12 strings but got too old to keep them up, so I gave him my Yammy to use. He used to build them and give them away. He was down to one and it was constantly "in the shop".

Last night I had the privilege of celebrating the life of a dear friend. I have known Charlie Fishkin for some 38 years and was proud to serve with him in the nursing home ministry that he created. His funeral was on his 98th birthday. He was a Navy man, a carpenter, a luthier and a servant of...

So my wife and I are asleep in bed in the middle of the night. Then there's bombs falling, rockets going off and rapid gunfire breaking the silence. It sounds like WWIII just started in our back yard. The whole battle lasted about 25-30 minutes and scared the living bejeebus out of us. Next...

I don't separate playing and learning cause every time I play, I learn something. I memorize chords, scales, structure, fret board, songs, lyrics etc separately. But playing is learning and the more you play the more you learn. I'm 74 and I'm learning stuff I already forgot. My problem is...

Vivian is new to us. We just got her about two weeks ago. We lost our other little girl Olive a couple months ago. Vivian has only escaped once since we've had her and we found the hole where she got out. She is a lot more of a rascal than Olive was and has already opened several presents...

They're retired racers. We've been placing them since 1995. http://greyhoundoptions.org/blog/ The Beagle is your average pound hound.

Wishing Happy Holidays to all folks and critters from all of us down on the farm.

The average race is 30 seconds long. Two races a week adds up to 1 minute's work per week. Nice work if you can get it.:blushed:

Big Polish Christmas party (Wigilia) on Sat. Played Polish and English carols on the D40. Another party on Sunday. Completely and utterly exhausted.

I have a couple of those but I had a real hard time getting used to the thickness. I prefer a thin but stiff pick. To each is own.

There's an app you can put on your phone that lets you lay down 4 tracks. Songs come to me in lyric form first. Then I build around them. I'll have two or three complete songs in my head at most times and sing them to myself. Once I have them the way I want them I'll write out the lyrics...
