I've edited the original message so that it now links to the picture rather than displaying it here. That will resize the text so everyone can read it.

That's a beauty, by the way. Thanks for sharing it, Gene!

Hey, "Knight of the Tweed Case", shame on you for adding a forth leg to your Custom.

With three legs you never have to re-adjust one of the legs to level the guitar. Three legs will always make it's own plane.

I hope it was not because of your advice that Leo Fender sold your company to CBS.

See, I read___as well as give advice to sales people.

I'll read your book too, if I ever get a copy.
