That station wouldn't work for me. I got some kinda 'server full' message. So that puts it in the same category as 99% of the junk on AM/FM. Good thing I have...

To all- We're lucky to have Vince Pawless in the group. His advice is unusually level headed, which can make it sound too general to be useful. Its not. If...
John Thanks for the information. We are luck that Vince hangs out here, and that you do also. I take things you and Vince write with the utmost interest. I...
Thanks Michael, Actually on the top I was trying to get a vintage effect. I toned the lacquer a tobacco near the point of where the grain was almost totally ...

Note on the pecan guitar....I just remembered after seeing the "colortone" can in the picture....it was one of three guitars that I've finished with a...
Vince That is one great guitar. I guess time to get some pecan quartered and some b/s sets. what caused the finish problem is it oils or what. thanks stan ......
Vince - What did you think of that water based lacquer? I used some on one of my guitars and it didn't hurt a bit. I kind of liked it, but I got different ...
It was just the grain raising. Not as much as getting grain "filled", but it would rise in some lines.. very hard to keep "level". I'm glad I did it and it...
