Mine has the dark plank in the middle and two matching light ones on the outside. I like how they mismatched them to show off the 3 planks. Those tuners do look a little strange, but everything except the straplocks is real vintage. Love it.

Art, now you need one of my "modification strips" as seen on TV, to keep that thing in line. 3M non skid cut to an aesthetically pleasing shape. Sorry about the dust and reflections.

Thanx for the offer of the stick'um sandpaper TJ, but I think that I would go with the black stair tread stuff.

Also, I don't know if they are all like this, but mine has a kinda corner/edge a the curve...
It is not really round, y'know?
(I don't know if you can see it in this pic, but it is really flat where it sits on my leg...)



It hasn't slipped yet... (maybe I just jinxed myself! :eek: )
I might add, with the strap button placement it hangs really nice. Even though I rarely stand...
But if it becomes a problem, I will remember that little trick.

Mine is nice and flat on the bottom, too. It slips around a bit, but boy is it nice.

Okay, before this thread fades to the archives... A question or two:

What should I clean the bowl with?
Or more importantly, what SHOULDN'T I clean the bowl with?
(Normal bowls and T tops I just use any old T-shirt to knock the dust outta the crannies)

And any other answers that y'all got...
How do I fingerpick?
What's the intro to Crazy On You?
What word rhymes with 'Orange'?

Always looking for an edjukayshun!

OMA,

Intro to Crazy on you goes: Daum-da, dee-dum-da. Da-do-dee-dum, da-dum-da-da, deedly-dee-do, a-yoink a yoink etc.

Actually I meant that little Dreamboat Annie prelude that goes into Crazy On You...

[But I also wanted to know about shining up the bowl after I sweat and drool all over it.]

That bowl is covered with gelcoat, the same material that finishes boats. Any good automotive wax (non silicone) will work fine. As far as "crazy on you" intro, I'd have to show you as I have no idea how to explain it.

I hopefully won't have to use anything more than a damp t-shirt on it...
But I thought I would ask, since I don't wanna scratch it.
I got 'Fender' cloths and Microfiber cloths.
Thanx...

As to the Dreamboat Annie > Crazy On You transition,
I might wanna learn to fingerpick House of the Rising Sun first.
(Actually that IS my exercise, when I exercise... Might move-on to Dust In The Wind)

So? What rhymes with 'Orange'?

Great. Now if I ever play one of your guitars I'll be worrying about why the t-shirt was 'damp'.

Nothing in the English language.

There's a multi-part YouTube video on the whole Crazy On You song by some kid. It is really good. I need to figure out how to download it to a dvd so I can play it in the band room.
