VA, seems like I can't meet any good hippy people in VA. Gotta love this place, ain't nothing but bullshit goes down here. Lived here way too many years and know what's going down. George is lucky because he lives down south but for those of us up north in the madness of DC's CEO's, it's hell for us. Especially if your trying to earn a living. Hey George, you wanna add some nice pickups to an old 62 to 65 tellie, vinyl wood, no stain? I'll pay ya bud. Whatever it costs for the guitar and the work done to it. Of course, I ain't got a lot of money so........ I'm a poor bastard. But I'm in love with the blues and jazz as of lately and I really don't want to pay 3 k for a tellie from that day. And from what I read of your posts, you seem to find some good guitars and understand saudering real well. Do me this favor and I'll drive down to wherever and save your ass bud.
hehe i love music too i love to play blues, rock, R&B, and jazz im watchin Standing In The Shadows of Motown if you don't know marvin gaye? stuff like that you wanna have him resauder your pickups or build you a guitar?
Well, I'm in the process of selling my first guitar, an Ibanez. Don't know why I got it but I have someone who can resauder my pickups, I just want George to find me a tellie in those years I have a classical guitar, which I'm really trying to buckle down and study and I also have a Breedelove which is an amazing acoustic for the price. Of course I also have a Les Paul but at Epiphone . Other than that, I have my Ibanez, and a shitty classical guitar. So what, 5 guitars?
i have a fender p-bass 72' to be exact and and a viola bass but do you think george is gonna get that stuff for you? i mean it's gonna be a lot a money
I sold my soul to the devil.. god forbidding, I still can't play the blues as well as I'd like to. I love that shit man... except I only like some R&B. I absoulutely love jazz.. Pat Maffini(sp) is an incredible jazz player. As far as white boy blues goes, Robin Ford is the master of all. Forget Clapton, Ford commands all. Although I must say Warren Haynes did a tremendous job on his new record. He quit being the flashy player and became the rhythmic player. Every note has it's place. That's what like. Music, not an extra beat to produce a tone for an ignornant audience of non-musical talent. God knows I sold my soul on that delta blues cross road. How come the devil won't honor the selling of my soul? Bastard, I oughta commit him to an asylum.
are you trying to be robert johnson now? still the tellie is gonna be at leaset 2 grand with all the other stuff you want on it
If you knew how desperate I was, George is my last hope bud. I have trust in a fellow muscian and a fellow VA man. But I really don't have the money to blow on this shit, I've had offers from a guitar teacher of mine but it comes down to a a grand and a half. Which is a lot of money to a man making barely above minimum wage. I work my ass off at physical work and which is why I'm trying to quit my job. Your fingers are god's gift to you and really, I almost lost 3 fingers last week and 4 the week before that. I almost had a hydraulic system fail on a tractor and cut off my fingers. It had just enough fluid to retain it's strength and keep me from loosing all my fingers, all though I had severly bruised fingers and couldn't play for 2 weeks. I was lucky to have no broken fingers. Don't be a phsyical man and be a guitar player.. my only words to a survivalist. I almost wanna cry because I gotta do this shit because I refused the schooling I should've had and became a carpenter/ everything else man. Stay in school and become one of those rich businessmen, much easier.
Haha man, you are awesome, 2 grand fuck that.. I'll save it. I don't care anymore but guitar. No woman, no cries. No guitar, all dies. yes sir, repeat that in your head a million times, your a man of wisdom... No woman, no cries, no guitar, all dies.... repeat, repeat, and repeat.
You live in VA? I live in Loudoun, the richest county in America.. yep, ain't it sad? Second fastest growing.
Of course you do, GET OUT OF THERE. I grew up with a strong disbelief in Utah. It's like hell on earth to me. The salt plains. I was born in North Dakota. That was a mediocre paradise to me. Watching missles in farmer's fields ain't really paradise but it was life to me back then. Don't live in ND... first place to be bombed, either that or Wyoming. The two most populated states with missles. DC won't be bombed first by any true organization, only ND and Wyoming will be. They carrry over half the majority of our missles. Nothing like a Sunday drive and seeing missle silos. God knows I can't forget those sights. Even at 4.
corn and sunflower plants became nuclear misiles. God knows I'll never go back there even though the most beautiful girl I've ever seen lives in ND. She was my best friend growing up............... The missels prevent me from going back.
and fuck that alcohol content in beer. God damn them mormans. I'm sorry. There is no one more that I hate than mormans. I don't mind christians, but mormans, they are almost satanic. They are bullshit to the last degree. I got fired because my boss was morman and I was regular christian at the time. Stupid bastards. Get a life and don't save barrells of bread crumb in your basement.
