One of those days

Hemply · 05-24-2008, 07:30 PM

Today’s task... to cure my Brinkman Professional Charcoal grill for the season!!
Brought her out, sprayed her down with cooking spray, and sparked her up!
Maintain at 225 degrees for 2 hours, and then thrash her on up to 400 degrees for a final hour... allow to cool.

During my three hour curing session I jacked my LPC into my Rivera and I have to say... I'm not sure if it was the weather, the scent of charcoal and wood burning in the backyard. But she just sang! Played like a dream, I even impressed myself, jostling her tones from fat and juicy, to bright and crisp!
Harmonics right on spot and perfect feedback when I wanted it! Everything was just perfect even the hour I spent cleaning her off after my impromptu jam session.

I got so wrapped up in the sounds I was making that I forgot to put anything on the grill to cook! Doh! That's OK I just ordered some Sushi up and tomorrow will start the barbeque! That's if I can keep my hands off my LPC that long... she looking pretty hot over on her stand all shiney and clean.

What better than a barbeque weekend and My Gibson Les Paul Custom 68 historic!

Life is good!

Have a great holiday!
