"Thanks UJ", Yes!, it's a bit flashier than my usual style of build, but I should get the hang of this building thing, by the time I get to AGP #500 ;-D

"Thanks Bob & UJ", those generous comments are starting give me a swelled head, :-D
Yep, AGP. Bob agrees. You are going to be purty decent by the time 1000 gets here. It will be fun watching (as always).
I should not kid you too much. You know I (and many others) enjoy your creations and they way your slide playing has become very good.
Stuuning build AGP. Possible Luthier status at #1000!!
