Joined: July 2005 Posts: 1609 Location: Colorado | Not sure if this has been covered - but I gave myself a couple yuks last night as I opened a case I had not been into for a while. I found a couple old tortex picks, what appears to be a very rusty "e" string...an empty bottle of Professor Farley's String Sudser (anyone else remember that stuff?) and believe it or not... a snickers bar and an old television remote control - I have long since replaced. I cannot figure out how the remote got there...and I'll take the 5th on the other stuff. It made me empty out the more commonly used guitar's compartment - nothing but the typical - pics - tools - capo.... etc. So....what's in your storage compartment? :eek: | ||

I cleaned out all the cases, only leaving the manuals, receipts, etc. that came with the guitars. The only oddity I have is the homemade (by Alaska Fly Guy) humidifier in the Ute case. | ||

All the other junk is now in a gig bag, an old Trace Elliot amp head bag. Keep all the shit in one place, it's easier to know where to look for it then in a panic. | ||

I rarely look once I remove the guitar and stash the case in some other part of the dungeon. Everything I need stays in the gig bag, and I am now down to using two soft cases for gigging. | ||

I'll have t'scan it & post it. (sorry, JB) ;) | ||
