Oh my God AGP ! Not you? I ordered two custom printed vivid color Boxes from Ben today ! Whatā€™s happening to my resolve? I should be cleaning my guitars with bleach after every play. But no, I order more parts from the Gitty Man. Uncle John. Please help us. Get your fiddle uncle John. Rid our souls of the demon desire. Build stop is but a wall to the leaping lizard of greed. Just two more builds lord before it,s too late. I need some zzzs for my deseas. ... Mose Golly by Golly.

Never take it on an empty stomach.

Hey, Dave and Alan.Ā  I am sorry you have become immune to the salubrious effects of Build-Stop.Ā  I am working diligently on Build-Stop II which will have greater powers in fighting off CBG building frenzies and Corona Corona virus.Ā  Ā There may be side effects.Ā  I need some human ginny pigs.Ā  I will mail you two samples.Ā Ā

My daily fix of "Build Stop" isn't working either Dave!, and this recent Corona Crap which has put me into self isolation has only exacerbated the condition, just finished a build, which was an emotional one for me, the reason will become more apparent in a few weeks, when It's the appropriate time to post.

Should do more Videos because as you say , they take up less room, but the building urge is very strong at the moment, have just started another LPG build, with more to follow, not sure what they'll be at the moment, as I'm always looking to do something new or different, whether it be different tuning's, materials or shapes etc!Ā  :-)Ā  Ā

Drinking my morning tea and listening watching again.Ā  Ā You are a dandy narrator.Ā  And illustrator.Ā  And imaginator.Ā  Ā 

It was a great trip and fest, but it is good to be home.Ā  Linda made me French Toast this morning.Ā  Hey, if you talk to her, please don't mention the nude beach.Ā  Ā 

See you later, illustrator.Ā Ā

Thanks Tony. Next year why donā€™t you make it out to CallyFest? I know youā€™d love it !

Comment by Dave Lynas on March 30, 2020 at 5:25am

Thanks Richard. It took 10 minds to conjure this dream up. And it took YOU to herd us cats. I just posted a video that you generated and inspired and Yanis patiently let me indulge in. She even let me free to go to the Beach ! I Love the idea of Monterey in the Spring, Sea Gulls notwithstanding. Itā€™s pure metallization for this old codger. No way can I actually afford the luxury of your Storage Hotel. And neither can many of us folks in this Great ā€œNationā€. But we can take junk and make us guitars and become Stars on Stage in Monterey. The Great Adventure will continue.
