Location: South of most, North of few | Got the old body back from the factory from my 1614, (this is why I was looking for a rosette) and was thinking of making a lamp or something out of it. (no taco chip serving bowl ideas) Anybody have some bright ideas?

Location: big island | looking at the pic from the zillafest where you guys are holding the guitars upside down over your faces is interesting in an alien sort of way. make an alien out of this one and hang it on the wall or on the front door next halloween. |

Why not look for a neck on ebay and make a beater out of it?
Maybe not. Go for the Nacho bowl idea. You could use part of the top as a divider for some salsa. |

Or did somebody already come up with a name for the g8r jam? |

Location: California | you could make a drum out of it, or a shield, or throw your change in it... saw it in half and use it at arms of a chair, use it to make reverb on your voice by yelling into it for recording purposes,make a footrest out of it. |

| you can have the bodies from my restorations..
make a chair out of them... use one for the seat back, put a wooden form in one of the other bowls minus the top and pad it out for the seat..
some old necks for legs... voila! :D
