building guitars is all I want to do.

Go for it @boo I’m sure a man of your talents can do it for a living…

@boo Hmm, could be super cool if done right. I like the f holes on the PGM (I know they‘re painted) but not sure on the Bandsman. I think they’re too big for that body. It could be sweet but…   Read more»

Good point, he is known for being sloppy. 🤣  @boo I think he’s great, no question. He was sloppy here and there but his acoustic playing always sounded very clean. Probably just had to do with his attitude towards the…   Read more»

Have you not got a job to go to? *This* is my job @Boo. 😆 😆  No “proper” work though.  I declined the offer of an extension to my last contract last Dec (partly because they kept crashing my Weds…   Read more»

@russ cheers! 😉

Very relaxing and satisfying.
 
I should probably check whether it works though …
