Location: Upper Left USA		So UPS came by about 2pm but I was cleaning house so they left a note. Tried to chase them down but ended up calling in and got a re-do at 6pm.

Whaaah.

Pulled the Josh White out of the box and was pleasantly surprised at what was there.

Location: Germany		Very nice! It's one of the highest shiny bowl serial# I've seen so far. Bet this guitar was one of the last original JWs they built.

That's what I really like about the OFC, Members willing to just give away vintage guitars to other members. So Damon, when's it getting there?

Location: Upper Left USA		Its cleaned, polished and set up now. Put on some D'Add EJ 17's (.013"-.053") and took a little off the 13th fret.

Very clear ringing voice. Probably should have left the string ends rolled up and uncut for a little authenticity but I like them clean cut.

I can only imagine how sweet it is to have one of the new ones!

I realize that I now have more wide neck acoustics than ever. Is this a sign of maturity?

It's a sign of fat fingers.

Location: Upper Left USA		Considering JW's comment on orthededic surgery and Slipkid's Trigger finger I thought I should hijack my own thread and add to it.

I got the Cortisone shot in the upper forearm yesterday and continue to ice and ultrasound. Feeling better and hoping I don't wrench it soon.

Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast		Mike,

I was thinking the same thing. That was quite a long dry spell for JWs.
