I challenge ANYONE to come close to my record of guitars shipped without incident Maybe you just need to get more creative Al. Themed package materials maybe. Pack an O with all man made materials (except the Country Artist, that should be straw). Pack up the Takamine Natural Series in compost. Taylor in horseshit, and so on.... |

Getting a "hug" in Jersey is usually an indication that you're about to get "whacked" inside of 36 hours . . . |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Well, I just read this entire thread and I must admit: yes, I am a bit misty myself: in my pants from too much laughter...Al, see what going past the 50 gets us? fluid excreations...well, we earned it.
Seriously, thanks to Beal Sr. and Jr. for the vision and drive to make some of the finest guitars on the planet...bar none! Without them: there would not be any of us celebrating all of this _______________! (you fill in the blank.)
Thanks Gentlemen! |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Praise/blame to Noah for selling me my 1537. That really started me on the road to perdition.
To Wabbit, tdeej, Stonebobbo and Dave for actually visiting me in this outpost, and to all those who have allowed me to visit them. That's a pretty scary thing, I know. |
