On an american motorcycle forum I used to be on I used to have multiple users who would argue against each other and the rednecks would love the ones who agreed with me and then slowly I started getting them to agree with me on stuff, they'd lose the plot over someone changing their opinion :mrgreen:

Actually when I said I have room I meant the kids would need to leave home, but it's time they did so it's all okay!

The first guitar Grand dad ever bought with his GI bill after getting out of the service. Bequeathed to me after he passed away. A good talented buddy in the states played it for two years on some recordings and on tour. I wanted it played hard and toured. Now shes back played occasionally as she's still a work of art. With factory original bigsby and bowtie bridge. No need for introduction. Y'all know what it is. One of only 3 50s LP I own.I mainly play its ugly stepsister the white LP/SG. Thank God its good weather today to bring it out. Now unlesh your inner Neil Young :lol: thats it for now.
Uh, I'm going to be dreaming of this one tonight.
