Hey guys-sorry I haven't been around-question for you maybe you guys can help with...I just uploaded some new build pix tonight and the thumbnails are stretched out, but when you click the image to view it full size, it is fine? Any idea what I can do to fix this?

Have a good holiday :)

Thanks.  Just threw some strings on tonight.  It makes noise...so that's good, but need to dial it in.  Not happy with my bridge though.  It is my first one, so I'm happy.

Merry Christmas to you as well!!

Well I am so glad to see that Shane is coming to New England as part of his Dive bar tour. I only wish that I could make the show. My only hope is that it such a success that he comes back this way again.
