that is one of those $30 "blemish" bodies form GFS. I don't like it much because it's too light. I like heavy ash bodies and it's about a 2 lbs body.

screw that.
truth be told. something I never did tell you is that I was intentionally putting a little beer on the strings because I like the way dead strings sound and feel. in the process, I spilled beer on it and it quit working. the good news is that I unsoldered the pickup and it still had output.
well the cat's out of the bagel now!

I shouldn't have told you that.
It was kind of how I told you someone was driving my car and hit a curb. Good news, I got two new tires for my car and it doesn't wobble when I drive it now.

because that's where my main concerns lie.

I got the idea from Danny Gatton. you also don't pour the beer on the strings . . . I'm not dumping beer on the guitar.
