My Encounter with Paul Reed Smith & Brian Ewald

I learned that A. He did not have an answer to the question and B. I annoy him.

Meeting your heros is a mixed bag.
Well at least you did not mention "tone wood." :pound-hand:

I once had an idol, roll model and mentor that I placed high on a pedestal. I got to know him, know about the subject matter and partnered with him on several projects. After getting to know him, I realized he was just another man not unlike myself. Pardon the hijack, but here's to Jeff Levy, my mentor.

 
I am actually curious to see how they match up--- so far Viet KONG has crushed all

go ahead Chris -- I'll let you do the "reveal--"

Alrighty then...

I was not able to get a reasonable offer for the Big Green Goblin Bass...So I worked out a trade with Adrian.

It makes me feel better to pass it on the a forum member and friend than let someone low ball me!

So here it is! The Peavey Millennium with a huge upgrade in electronics!

No hijack. You personally told me this story over the phone. It is a good one.

It truly is! If only I took to the Bass, but the 6 string is more than enough for me. And Adrian has been wanting it since I got it, but I was asking too much...in cash that is.
But, when I decided no one was going to get it from me for a song a trade was agreed upon and you know the rest of the story...right?

Now, indeed the acquisition is beautiful, but the question inquiring minds want to know is how bad did the Ferengi screw you????
