I wonder if Hesh does this often?

I don't play bass often but when I do I prefer a five string....

Haha pretty funny.

Amateurs......

I get a better finish from a Diablo D0641X 6-1/2.
But who am I to argue with a pro, must be my technic.
Do you offer classes?

Hey Dave

Actually we do offer classes but our classes are fret work for builders and set-up for builders. We've yet to incorporate the circular saw in the class material but I suppose there's always time.....

Going to Kalamazoo this weekend for a wedding
Wish I could could make it to Ann Arbor but according to the CEO/CFO/ and activities director we will not have time
Some time I need to bring ya a 6 pack for some of the knowledge you've passed on.

Funny, that doesn't look like an Ovation.

Hey Buddy I would love to finally meet ya!!

Maybe though you will have some time to visit the Parson's street Heritage f*ctory formerly know as the G*bson f*ctory?

Welcome to Meechigan too!!!!

We turn Ov*tions away most of the time so we didn't have one to shame... er use in the pic....

Bet the Florida crowd would love to have some Ov*tions right now since they make great floaters..... (visual and implications intentional...)

You gonna pass a copy of that pic on to the owner of that guitar?

Fine David... What's it gonna take to keep you quiet?


Actually, that's my cabin beater guitar, just pulled it off the rack to demo our methods.

Now, does anyone have instructions on how to tear down and rebuild a Hitachi circular saw? Mine seems to have some wire or something jammed up in the bearings.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

The day before yesterday I was just talking with Dave about getting a new chainsaw to cut fret ends flush.... Such timing!:)

And yeah were are the safety glasses and an athletic cup too.....

And what are you laughing at Colin my friend.... If your country didn't make such a very fine beverage I wouldn't be such a jerk at times....

Heritage is just under a mile from where we're staying. Made it to the Beer Exchange and didn't want to leave.

Maybe next time.

We usually head up to Da U.P.

Hesh's shop had a recent video on their preferred method of bridge removal. David was using a hammer to remove it in short order.

Ed

Hey Ed! Actually it was an ax that Dave precisely hit the bridge on the first and only take and removed the bridge with.

It's the last video on our video page: http://www.annarborguitars.com/styled-4/index.html

Oh man, how do you stop stop this train?
