Location: New Hampsha | Just to restate the obvious: Mike is my hero.
He offered to reproduce the MIA neck cover plate for my Tornado mongrel(Old Dawg). I sent him a template, and he made not one but TWO and both are simply super, fit great and look awesome. Screws included! He is also working on reproducing the truss cover and I've seen the prototype - fabulous work!
If you need a cover, I recommend that you get in line now! Avoid the inevitable lwaiting line, because I'm sure his work will soon be commanding a premium, and I hear a limited series of signed, first edition covers may become available. Certain to become overnight collector's items, these will no doubt instantly Double; NAY - Triple!! the value of the heretofore mere guitar to which they are affixed. Ads will read: "2005 MWOODY Signed First Edition Rear Cover; oh yeah, Custom Balladeer included."
Anyway, A very public thanks to Mike!

I'm just an idiot that fixes stuff.
I put some pics in the gallery if anyone needs replacement or customized pieces.
Thanks John :o |

Location: Midland, MI | Hey, Woody, can you make a TRC in flame maple to match the top on my Hamer? Of course, it'd have to have a sunburst finish... |

Wait, you already sent me a guitar - it is sitting on my porch and the check hasn't even cleared the bank yet! Thanks!
I have some flame maple veneer, be careful what you ask for!
Post some pictures of it Dude. ;) |

Glad it made it there. I meant to check the UPS site today and didn't get a chance. The check hasn't even gone to the bank. I wanted to make sure you were happy with the guitar first. Well, that and SWMBO gets all riled up when she sees it just sitting in the in basket. ;)
The Hamer is at this page. Just two quick pics I snapped the day it arrived. Al is my new pusher. |

I won't be taking it down until I get the other two projects back up. And like they say - these Ovations are great deals - a Tele like (but better) and a hard case for under $300 is a bargain.
I can't view your pictures! I can't see the Hamer site from my home PC as well. I think I'm lacking an Active X thingy or Java Applet or something.
Send me a copy if you would please!
And cash the check :rolleyes: |
