This guitar has counter wound p-up's so that it minimises noise when used in recording. Not that I do any of that, you understand
Christmas at the Binder residence:acidrock said:MERRY CHRISTMAS!
and a happy new year!
All the presents are unwrapped and all I have to do is stay out of the way for the rest of the day.
Yeah, maybe, but I like the three tone colour of the MIA one better And no, I didn't get it cuz I am having to wait to see what my annual bonus looks like - sometime around March As mentioned above, with two kids going through College, we have had to tighten our belts this Christmasacidrock said:So did you get it?
The neck plate and the case are sharp.If I didn't have a MIJ strat,I'd jump on one of these.
I'm betting the MIM version is not to bad either.

IMHO kind of like modern art,if you don't agree that it's good,you must be intelectually challenged

My son is here. In bed. Where he will probably remain until 2:00 or 3:00. Quite a difference from when he was six and up at 3:30 in the morning.
He broke up with his girlfriend last week. I asked him if that was a preemptive strike to avoid a Christmas present. (Not that I would know anything about that. )
My daughter is scheduled to stop here around 2:00, on her way to my ex's brother's house (i.e., her uncle's). She'll probably stay here just about long enough to open her presents. She's bringing her boyfriend, but he's a Cowboy's fan, so I don't talk to him.
I'm making baked Ziti and garlic bread, with a nice salad on the side. Not very Christmassy, but easy.
I figure I'll be in the wine by 1:00 PM.

I think his mother would like to get that from me - only severed.acidrock said:

I'm guessing they're not Dallas Cowboy fans.Paul881 said:Their boyfriends are good company too

Heaven forbid.Paul881 said:Er...no
So, even worse, is this guy she's dating...gulp...Texan?
Nothing wrong with that.as long as they stick with the team.The prople I can't stand are the ones who change teams every couple of years or even worse the people who aren't football fans at all and as soon as the local team has some success all of a sudden are wearing team gear and cheerleading for the team.(My female ex-boss)dachay2tnr said:.
You get these guys all the time. They happen to "come of age" at a time when one particular team is successful, and they latch on to that team. You'll find guys who grew up in the late '70's who are Pittsburgh Steeler fans. Or guys who grew up in the early '80's who are San Francisco fans.
