Them there repairs...

just keep on coming in. We are blessed to have 'em! However, I'm going to go over to the shop tomorrow night and try to convince Don to work on the Tele model.

Right now he's putting necks on Cloud Clones.

Blessings from across the pond...

Ooh, that smell

Not THAT smell, the smell of old guitars. Check out this '63 custom recently purchased for $15,000. All original. Don's doing a little work on it. The neck is whacky, so the thing won't stay in tune so I didn't play it. I pretended, though.

We also did some work on the Tele. We installed the light posts for all of the bodies last night. Next step is to fuse the bodies.

Damn Yankees won again.

Last night, tonight.

Yeah, Don's a sci-fi buff so I didn't get over to the shop last night. He was checking out the premier of V on ABC. I don't think any dramas are worth watching if they are on network tv. Plus I saw the original in '83. I remember wishing I was watching Night Rider instead.

I did, however, watch Dirk go off for 29 points in the fourth quarter against the Jazz.

So yesterday evenings plans are now tonights', and we will be working on TELE!

Tonight

Going to the shop tonight to coax Don into working on the Tele shape. He's really busy with repairs, which is great, but I feel like I've got to nag him about staying on top of the Bell product line.

New All Original Shape...

is shaping up. The spec phase is done and the CAD drawing work is underway. We're very exited about the "Tonar" and can't wait for its' debut. The style is sort of retro-modern. That term is coined from descriptions of recent cars that hearken back to the good old days of muscle cars, but offer modern conveniences, too. Like the latest Mustangs, Camaros, Challengers, and my ride, the FJ Cruiser. Check out a spec drawing. A few details are already different in the CAD files we've created so far, but basically the shape will remain the same. It'll be a wood/plexi fusion and I would like to see how it looks with the plexi polished on the front and sides, but left frosted on the back. I tried to emulate that effect on the illustration.
