Goob - I couldn't figure out what in the heck you were talking about. Then I found it. WOW - I wonder if this guy can come and decorate my music room. I've never seen pictures hung so straight in my life. Is it really "HIM"? Lordy, lordy I feel my temperature rising. And how fitting that the King plays a Korean guitar? Dave

Did you notice the casket under the flag? Probably where he sleeps when the sun comes up.

An Elvis impersonator played at my wife's Christmas party. I ain't never seen nuttin like that before. Quite a few of the ladies went nuts. There had to be some sober regrets the next day. I felt bad for the guy. They treated him more like a male stripper than anything else. I wondered if that was normal or just a bad gig.

Did anyone notice that it looks like there is a hole drilled in the headstock just below the tuner for the high-E string?

You can see it on the back of the headstock as well, so it looks like it goes all the way through.

Yes I saw it. but don't know what it would be for. You could put a guitar string in there to hang yourself with after you paid that much for a Celebrity Deluxe.

That's how "E" tied the straps to all of his guitars! Makes for good flippage.

That's a good theory (tied the guitar strap to the headstock through that hole).

But, it does not make sense to have the hole on the high-e side. It would make more sense to put it on the low-e side instead.

I am going to send an email to the seller, just for kicks...

Hizzoner,
As good as it might sound, it was not a good thing.

Gee, Brad, with all that female attention, I figured he might sing that Mary-Chapin Carpenter song....."I feel LUCKY....ooh, ooh, yeah, I feel LUCKY...YEAH".....

But, then, maybe he didn't WANT to feel lucky!!!! :D "Do the gig and go home....."
