No Darvin, not just in Texas. About a month ago, I worked on a fiddle for a guy from here. Inside the body I found a "snake rattle", a $20 bill, a paper clip, and NO soundpost! Boy - you think we ain't got 'em around here...

| Smokes, lighter, nasal spray, Rolaids, at least a couple business cards, and a pen used to be on my guitar all of the time. It's just the picks I use now and the bar goes on the strings at the keyhead. |

I think the most I ever saw was in a steel in SoCal owned by Carl Walden. It was an old Fender 1000 which had the outside neck removed and replaced with a flat board to make it like a tray... Carl could set beer bottles, ash trays, or just about anything he wanted to on that guitar. I wonder if he still has that thing....JH

| Jerry, I think I just discovered why guys like us who play a single neck, must own a pack-a-seat and a Crown Royal bag.............JD |
