Location: SoCal | It's cool watching you guys dress up your guitars. I'm thinking that for my guitars, if I take some lessons, maybe people will stop throwing tomatoes and the guitars will look better.

I've sped-up the whole process by taking the buttons back off the guitar & stashing them adjacent to my coin purse . . .
