Location: Boise, Idaho | I've stopped work on mine. I built one of those huge weight benches in the corner of the same room in the basement before I went crazy with guitars. The combined exercise/music room isn't working out, so we're talking about moving the music room upstairs. The weight bench is staying with the house when we sell it. The new room is larger, but seems smaller because part of the ceiling is slanted.
Keep posting pictures and ideas to this thread and I'll steal them. I kind of like the mural. I need to replace some outdated wallpaper, but I'm looking for something with a music theme. |

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | It was kinda' funny to see the strange look on my wife's face when she came down to see the completed project. She kept insinuating that SOME of these MUST be new purchases. I guess seeing them all out there together on display opened her eyes as to JUST how much I had accumulated. I think she cooled down a bit after realizing there were no more cases and other musical instruments laying around all over the house. |

But you should've put the hangers closer together or left more space between them for the next 4 or 5.
Do you have a Mac? |

I do have a PC laptop with some recording software on it. Nothing elaborate (yet)
As far as the spacing goes, I've run out of justification (and wall space) for now. |

Q: Why does a mac mouse have only 1 button?
A: So you can use the other finger to communicate to PC users.
CLICK (of the one button mouse) |

Ouch.
All in fun, Toby. I happen to think Macs are pretty cool, I really have nothing against them (at least with the new procs and OS).
Ok, well, maybe the price.
I just bought my wife a new computer. A PC. 3Ghz dual-core Wolfdale processor, 3Gb memory, 650Gb hd, 22x dvd burner, 19" widescreen flat panel monitor.
$400 shipped. 1/3 the price of the cheapest iMac, and tons of free or very cheap software available.
I like Macs, but I know I wouldn't be happy with anything less than a Mac Pro, and I can't make myself spend $2k on a computer...
...of course, there's another alternative...

I like your wallpapers. |

I actually have photoshop, but I was probably too excited about posting the pics that I wsan't paying attention to what I was doing.
GWB, Where are you at in Michigan?
If I plug into that Warp 7 amp you probably WILL hear me. |
