Exceptional Guitar Finisher and several good demo's

@Ramo check out his reference to Georgia.

I also think his English is better than many Americans speak. I did notice where he might have struggled for the term for the Bubble Wrap as he popped it like a kid.

@Ramo Maybe some of the people have changed since you were there last. Likely more Metal than back when you were young.

If it has not changed in 22 years I would be worried lol.


Maybe they have but there is nothing there for me. All my friends moved on, they have new friends, most of people who I know they have their pace of life and they are busy.

To be honest Im still hurt what happened last time I was there and I cant let go.

I have my life here, some friends ( not a lot) I know a lot of people but I dont call them friends. Friend is strong word, I cant call friend to anyone I meet.

Friends are who stick with you through thick and thin, who wants you to succeed and you can count on and vice versa…

poop, that went deep….

:)

WELL Buddy, We never really met, but I do call you Friend and Brother. I think quite a number of our members strive to achieve this with one another even the ones who are clear across the world from our homes, like Dave Sloven, Ivan, TCE63, AlexSG, You, Gahr, Bea, etc,

Those kinds of things happen in life, bro. Sorry for your sad experiences and disappointments. In my life, I had numerous dear friends in my youth.
My sadness was seldom poor treatment by my comrades, but instead it was from the losses of several top notch true friends who died young. Lost 3 between my 18th bday till my 21st. Many more since.

In your world now, you have blessings. Mum, wife, Son and hopefully your return to good health for the duration. AND your love of Pointy guitars and METAL and the perseverance to acquire your skills.

As some here in America say when a thing knocks us down. " Coyboy Up"
My Mum's stroke and her remaining days of life, and my Diabetes diagnosis has brought me to my own " Cowboy Up" times beginning July 2021.
 
I learn so many things in videos like these. Just like I learned to diagnose furnace problems when I was learning Tube Amp repair with Sysco, Ivan, 67, Bdon, Amp Mad and even DonP who used to come here and helped me immensely.

I’ve accepted the fact and moved on.

One day we meet and drink beer and talk life. I have a lot to learn and I can learn a lot from bro like you.

Here is another exceptional guitar builder and master repairman of guitars that were even damaged by fire.

I love this part.

"Tony loves to bust chops and he says to me again, just like he did when he saw the Monkey, “It’s awesome, looks great, nice job etc, etc, but it’s not left handed.” I laughed it off and told him that I built it for myself so that’s why it’s right handed.

He’s hinting on having me build him an SG ! So now lets go to November 2011, Tony was on his book signing tour so I stood in line to get my copy autographed. When I got up to Tony we shook hands, asked me how I was and then he drops the bomb on me. “So have you built me a guitar yet? “ I asked him if was serious, he said yes and I said you got it. The following day I began gathering the supplies, emailed Mike, he told me the spec’s Tony likes and begun the build."
