Location: When?? | Cool pics, Dan. Definitely an O in that case!
Somewhat on-off topic... years ago I placed an SD media card into a bank statement envelope that was in a file box with hundreds of other envelopes. There were four file boxes, all with hundreds of envelopes. I have since forgotten which envelope and box the card was placed into. I would really like it back, but not to the point of opening all those envelopes. Point is.. I sure wish I had access to an x-ray machine like this one! Of course, the x-ray would probably kill the card anyway. Bad brain is the actual problem here.

I dunno. My SIM cards have been through lots of airport X-ray machines and they still hold data.
I'm sure if you're friendly with your doctor he could probably arrange a 'private' session for your files. |

How did he aquire these images? I have never been offered that service in an airport. Maybe if you have connection to a radiograph (or what its called) in health care.

Nope. It's a simple dovetail neck with a standard TR that bolts on with 1/4" output jack. Same as the 50th Anniversary guitars.
He wrote that in his country, Russia, the metro has x-ray machines. He took his guitar in, they put it in the machine and he took photos of the x-ray machine screen.
He recently sent a few pics of his 12-string Custom Legend. This one has a K-bar neck.

Location: Denmark | Cool. Clearly visible that the Kaman bar neck is a metallic construction with a wooden cover/cladding so to say. |
