Action is very nice after the trip to the spa and a little adjusting after that.

Just curious T.J. . . . are you kneeling, or are you straddling the fire ring bricks with one foot in the fire?

I'm about 3 feet away with my right foot up on a picnic bench seat. That's the second time someone thought I had one foot in the fire. (literally)

I think he said one foot in the grave, TJ, but that may be the same thing for you.
That picture reminds me that SWMBO wants me to build a fire ring up at the cabin (like she's ever going to use it). Her chosen location is right next to the propane tank, however, and she's the only one who doesn't think that's a stupid idea. I may do it anyway, just to stop her nagging, knowing that we'll never have a fire in it.

It didn't help that she saw you guys sitting around the firepit at War Eagle's. We've been married long enough for me to know that she won't give up. She'll just make me move the propane tank. There's no problem that can't be solved by my money or hard work or both.
In the unlikely event that any of you ever accept my open invitation for a gathering at the cabin, I promise that if we have a firepit, it won't be next to the propane tank.

I'm not one for a lot of "Bling" on a guitar. This model A is appealing, but I don't really like the baby blue color.
Kota, NO I was just "teasing" him a bit! :D

Due to TJ's reputation here and elsewhere, I think he should perform... ... THIS ONE!

I was thinking of doing the intro to "crazy on you" to send up to you Ronnie. I'll get around to it.

OK, due to playing it again today for a little while, and a little prodding from my wife, this one is off the block. Sorry for the false alarm, but for now, it's staying in the lineup.

Jim,

I have the same problem(?). You know I've been looking at hog slotheads. Told the wife I would part with the 000. She said "No Way". I really don't have any more room for another guitar,(well maybe one more). So I'm sitting here playing the 000.
