Location: NW Washington State | Makes sense to me, but I wonder what the average person makes of "BFLG" in the title of this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160180315010
Google turns up the "Baby Feeding Law Group" but not much else.

I kinda like that one Seese! |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Yeah, this is one of my projects. I got it in worse shape than what you see here. Supposedly, it was owned for years by a songwriter in Nashville. It really does play nicely, though. I'm just passing it along. Hopefully, I get a bite on the auction.
I have other projects in the works. No, I'm not willing to fabricate lighting fixtures, or food vessels, from venerable old instruments. |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Yeah, I suppose.......why? Probably pretty much negate any decent acoustical properties, though.
Someone advised me during a "manic moment", "Just cuz you can, doesn't mean you should."
As Sundance said to Butch, "You keep thinkin' there, Butch; it's what you do best." |

It looked neat, but went for more than "neat" was worth to me!

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Yes, I believe that contraption falls under "Pressure Cooker"! Nice work, actually, on someone's part. No obvious pretensions at acoustic capabilities, either. Lotsa knobs, though- anything over 3 is beyond my comprehension, probably. |
