Welcome back Tommy sorry!, Pick, definite Yupper of a build, had a Pin Ball Machine many years back, completely destroyed by 3 of my sons who were pretty young at the time, wish I still had it, for what now has become an obvious reason  :-D

Way cool Pick. Wonderful, You Pin Ball Wizard. And Jim Morris is buying my offering guitar. I’ll send him the guit Monday. Let me know if I should send you a check or MO or add the funds to the Gitty fund. I’d like to mail it to you so I can add a drawing. :*) ... Dave, Chris and Jim

Awesome pick!! Sheer invention.....lights, sound, action, paint, rockets....please say it runs on dylithium crystals and that you tune it with one of Spock's old tricorders....!!!

Hope you and Val are bearing up bud......lotta love for you guys in these parts.....stay frosty and stay strong......all our best wishes to you both from Brian and Wendy in the Cotswolds, UK.
