At 4:24am on April 25, 2010, SecondHandCBG said…: Thanks Alan!

At 3:37pm on April 3, 2010, Vince Stark said…: Thanks! I'm looking for one. The top of the line ones are $! I don't want a piece o' crap either.

At 11:09am on April 2, 2010, Vince Stark said…: I'm referring to the spokeshave by the way.

At 11:08am on April 2, 2010, Vince Stark said…: Thanks anyway! What size is it?

At 12:45pm on March 29, 2010, Terry Carmack said…: Hey Alan,
Sorry took so long to get back to you. I was laid of in December and put a hold on my building. I have tryed everything I can think of but when I add a pot to my build I get a buz sound it will only go away if I turn it up all the way. If you have any ideas ... Ill try anything...

At 8:21am on March 11, 2010, Barry Evan Russ said…: Love the Puerto Rican flag box. VERY NICE NECK.

At 8:19am on March 11, 2010, Barry Evan Russ said…: Yes Alan, the neck was made from an old cedar chest I found in the dumpster. Not your usual neck wood I know but this was a recycling concept. The neck is reinforced with a solid aluminum rod under a reject martin fretboard that I filled with maple dots and radiused and fretted with Ste Mac high medium fretwire. Thanks so much for the positive comments.

At 8:00am on March 5, 2010, Keni Lee Burgess said…: Thank you Alan for your interest and purchases. Please feel free to write to me if any questions arise as you work through the lessons. Enjoy.

At 10:42pm on February 27, 2010, Roosterman said…: Damn technology!! Good to have you back :o)

At 8:32am on February 27, 2010, ChickenboneJohn said…: Welcome aboard!!! There's lots going on here and some friendly and helpful people.
