Members Elias Graves Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 My mom had a tornado two blocks from her house in OK a couple of nights ago. No damage to her place, though. It's getting to me today. Hope the hail and twisters hold out. The Godin is a lot like my Silvertone, only better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members newbuilder Posted April 27, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 How bad is the car? Totaled. They took it in at the body shop to replace the window, then called my wife and said they are keeping it to total out. We are kinda short a car right now and that suuuuucks. I am going to call today and see when I can get it back or get some cash for totaling it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members diceman1000 Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Mornin Elias. Fellows. It pissed in Lago like I haven't seen since a few weeks ago when baseball sized hail busted up my car on the HWY. Any one else experience crazy storms last night? That guitar is seriously badass. The only guitar that I have played that is set up like that was a Kay Craft guitar from the 50's. The sound was pure blues acoustic. A buddy gave it to me to get playing, that was a loud little guitar. i was in an F5 in wichita back in may of '99...same storm that tore up OKC that year...Damon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Elias Graves Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 I was in OKC when that bitch came through. Lifted blacktop off the road. Winds damn near 500 mph. We were wetting ourselves for a bit. There was nothing left standing after that one came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members newbuilder Posted April 27, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Hey guys. I ended up moving a bunch of stuff today and didn't really have time to jam. I did a little noodling with my brother, there was some real promising stuff, but honey do's ate up most of the time. I forgot to say, Damon, Happy New Guitar Day! You should totaly have a headstock redo thread. Everyone would get a kick outa that. I love Pizza! I think I may have kinda flipped. I am trying to trade my Ibanez and Washburn for a nice strat. What the {censored} is wrong with me? I just gotta have a nice strat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Elias Graves Posted April 28, 2009 Members Share Posted April 28, 2009 Hey, my boy has a decent mim strat and it's a pretty nice guitar. It needs a pup job but other than that it's good. The mim singles are noisy as hell. It needs a good set of Lace Sensors in it and it'll be a top notch axe. I have a hard time with srats, though. The strings are too damn close to the pickguard for me and that center pup drives me nuts. I'll stick with me sg for now. I do like the Lace Helix, though. If I ever get another solid, that one will be up there. My next will be the 5th Avenue though. I can't wait for that bad boy. I'm gonna add a floating neck pickup to it and turn it into an electric.

Members Elias Graves Posted April 28, 2009 Members Share Posted April 28, 2009 Oh, and hell yeah on the pizza. Ever had St Louis style? It's a thin crust with provel cheese. Provel is a cheese made by mixing mozarella and provolone. It's a little tangier and gooier than regular. Gooood {censored}. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
