FedEx: "Mr. Darby....We believe we have survalence footage of the culprit.....have you ever seen this man before?

Any word?

I got your gold top today. Beyond beautiful. I'm very appreciative to have it. It's hard for me to imagine a nicer guitar, but I know you found one. I'm not too happy to have yours here while your new one is still in limbo. Surely they'll have something to say today.

Ok then my gold top! It is a superb bit of craftsmanship. Your pictures were great but the real thing is even better. It even showed up in tune. It shall be heard by Vox, Marshall and Fender tonight.

They've got to be dialing in yours to some degree by now..

In tune?.....oh, shit....I must have been in too much of a hurry cause I always de-tune before shipping.

1000 apologies!

I really loved the way that one sounded.....I hope you do too!

Congrats Steve!

I hope he lets me play that beautiful Goldie sometime. He lives probably within 20 min. from me.

Still wishing you luck, LP!

maybe it's tuned down or maybe it's euphoria, but you didn't do anything wrong the way this baby was shipped.

you're on. i'm still trying to get a good amp into work here where there'd be room and space to turn it up (during non-work hours of course). i just have to decide to "let it go" and bring the marshall in - if it's not raining tomorrow it's coming in. then i'm also trying to decide how to keep yahoos from using it when i'm not around; not like there's a distributor cap i can remove! even though my jcm 800 is only 50w and it's hotplated i can't dial it up 'cause my garage loft is made of material designed to perfectly transmit sound with no loss directly through the neighborhood.

I don't really do the God thing, but you clearly deserve better. You're in my thoughts, I hope the Stinger appears one of these days.

I also think it is an inside job. I once had a brother-in-law who worked for UPS that furnished his entire home for free.

Well MOST of his stuff was the latest and greatest stereo or TV stuff, this was back in the early-mid 80s.
