Well I guess you'll be getting another Sho-Bud to restore and add some knees and pedal.
I know it will look great after you put your touch on it.

Maybe somebody should give James a break.

I know for a fact the guy is running around like a 'chicken with his head cut off' getting parts made and shipping them all over the world. He ain't the Pep Boys :lol: He doesn't just go pull it off a shelf. He really cares about restoring these old classics.

I have a couple of old Sho-Buds that James worked on and they not only play like a dream, they look and sound outstanding. He knows 'dem old Buds.

Sorry James,, I promise I won't hump your leg anymore. :lol:

No body called you stupid Jimmie, but I sure wonder why you choose a public forum instead of emailing me directly, with that sort of a question. Evidently you have changed your email address from what we have? So email me so I have contact, please.

I've sent plenty of emails that never made it. It seems like it gets worse every year.

When I didn't get a response it was humiliating to say the least.

People would try to take my picture and I was just a blurr in the photo. It's because I was so nervous, I was shaking like a kitty trying to poop a peach pit. :lol:
Peace
