Location: south east Michigan | Yikes... a 2-1/2" chunk of neck binding came off my AD-II. Scrapped off the old glue, applied new glue, couple rubber bands to hold it in place. Good as new.... I hope. Boy... the way the white binding as aged I'd never be able to match it if I lost the piece.
Then I restrung the Trekker and did a little setup work. Wow.. did that turn out nice! Low, even action up & down the neck. Still sounds like a 3/4 size guitar but plays like butta!! |

Location: closely held secret | Come on, Brad. You know you want to. You know it would be valuable learning time. You know it'll be fun. You've done the Tour twice.
Other than the fact that you have to spend 3 or 4 days with your OFC buddies, where's the down side? |
