with a bandsaw it only takes a second, tracy bought me some cheap brandy, and the hospital gave me a script of vicodin,(althoyugh i had pain killers)
the main reason being that they are pain KILLERS.

hay dude i got free neck last week. I totally forgot to post about it because photobucket is broke for me and i like to take photos of everything i get and i forgot. thank you so much! i will make it a nice home on one of my future projects. I feel like filing down some of the fret ends but cant build up the motivation without it being bolted on a guitar yet.


super excited for real neck coming next. the clear you sprayed on the free neck headstock looks really good. cant wait to see what mine looks like with more glosss

no worries man, i learned my lesson, its going to the cycle shop, ups ground, its in a brown box wrapped in duct tape and the ne ck itself is wrapped in 2 vintage bootcamp shirts from the 70's(his and hers!)
and then newspaper.
the headstock and fretboard and so FUCKING sexy looking.
i would take a pic, but its packed up, i sent the tracking number to hilary.
