  1. I'm really good at not winning raffles. Safe bet is that the guitar will NOT be coming to Gramercy.
  2. I tend to think of suicide differently. None of us have killed ourselves. I think there's a reason for that. Basically we haven't reached a mental state that allows us to think that way and carry out such an action. If and when a person's mental state crosses that line, all rational thought processes are gone. That's how you can do that to your kids. The birth of my son gave me a whole new perspective on some things. Not because I had just become a dad, but because I was experiencing firsthand a whole new type of stress. Before then I had thought that folks that abandoned newborns and abused them were totally wacko fucked in the head. Now I know that they really are, are exist that way for a period of time. My ex-wife suffers with bouts of depression, and in my opinion, tends to drift into mania at times, but the doctor didn't think so. She's a very vain person and the pregnancy helped her put on more weight than she wanted. When we first got home we were both exhausted. A long induced labor session with some anesthisia problems, Austin's refusal or inability to breast feed, and low milk production took a toll on her. Add a new dad that had never seen or done any of this type of stuff and a get up every 2-4 hours and try a breast feeding machine routine, screaming baby, crying mom, and whatever else had to be done, made it real easy for me to understand how easily some people could snap and slam dunk a newborn on teh floor. Lucky for me during that time, I wasn't affected by the high stress to the point where I forgot that I could handle the situation and that it would pass in due time. Every time I hear of a suicide or other irrational acts of violence I always wonder what put those folks over the edge.
  3. Have a good one Ted!
  4. ?????????????????? Jump Fuckin Back Jr.?
  5. Let's see, Snakes, Mustard, and oh yeah, Mike Love.
  6. Some of the answers were in the question. All the pickups were made the same, at least they thought so. As was mentioned, with no counters, the turn counts were not consistent, as likely were the winding patterns. There's a good chance nobody was checking gauss levels of the magnets either. All this was a certain recipe for variation from pickup to pickup, and likewise from guitar to guitar. In today's world, the pickup makers have studied the PAFs that produced the most pleasing tones, and tried to copy them. I'd venture a guess that they've found differing values to work better, or reproduce those tones more accurately the way they're doing them today.
  7. Don't know about the amp, but I heard he was using a Talent Boost pedal. Ducking, and running for cover.
  8. Enter the opposing opinion. I waited anxiuosly for the show. I watched intently, and was rather unimpressed after it was over.
  9. So you join a board, and within a coupla hours you make a first post ripping on a bunch of people you know little about. Smooth move.
  10. Obviously targeted at the cork-sniffer, I've got a bigger dick crowd.
  11. I think that's the ultra bad-ass purple Melancon.
  12. This one's called Hamer Ville and features chicks and beers Gotta have one of on a rowdy fan
  13. Frozen pizza is better Fuck movies are better Snakes? unchanged
  14. Prayers offered for you and your family from the swamp's edge. Take care buddy.
  15. Hmmm, methinks that B12L came from somebody here when I bought it, and the Valvetech went to Caddie, who sold it here just recently. I'd sure like to run back across the blue Studio Custom that I sold a coupla years back. I think it was a former Turdus guitar with a stolen pawn shop history. It ended up in Abaco's (IIRC) hands when I foolishly passed it on.
  16. That's a real bang up job there Brian. I'm impressed.
  17. That's probably the best birthday wish, but not likely in Columbus. Well, there is one bagel shop. Maybe I need to take a drive for lunch... Your fascination with really good New York bagels is one of the things I haven't forgotten about on my one trip to an HFC Open House. I still don't get it with bagels, but then again, rural Louisiana ain't the bagel capital of the world either. Bagels down here are probably about as good as the andouille gumbo in Nepal.
  18. Blappy Flirthday! May a good New York bagel cross your path today.
  19. Yo Caddie, Congrats on the sale. Did we discuss photo usage fees yet? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Nyuck nyuck nyuck
  20. Yo Caddie, I've got a few pics of the amp on my studio pc at home. With your permission, I'll post them here later today.
  21. +1 on everything these fine gents have said. It didn't stay at my place longer than maybe a few months, nice and comfy in my little funroom. The chassis went back to Rob for his latest little upgrade he had at the time. I might still have some photos of it on my other computer. I'll post some if I do.
  22. No man. Fuck Dat. We want the Honkey Network.
