Re: BREAKING UP NICE OLD RICKS FOR PROFIT...

[quote="jingle_jangle"]While we surely don't mean "idiot" in any literal sense, the meaning is accurately conveyed. My own experiences with this dishonest character should inform anyone who deals with him. Of course he is "filling a need", but that in itself is the sing...

Re: BREAKING UP NICE OLD RICKS FOR PROFIT...

Sorry folks, I hope I didn't offend anyone, but I call 'em like I see 'em, and I stand by my comment. Maybe it's not politically correct to call someone an idiot, but we've all been called worse. No need for an elaborate response here, I simply strongly disagree with the practice. Funny how one stro...

Re: Paul Kantner, 12 string sound in Jeff Airplane

A few years ago in one of the local guitar centers, they had a vintage mapleglo 360/12 with those stripes on it, and a photo of Kantner playing his next to the guitar. The guitar was there a while, and after some time, a GC employee peeled the tape off, saying it was electrical tape. It wasn't.

Re: Paul Kantner, 12 string sound in Jeff Airplane

In that picture, there is what appears to be some black tape on Kantner's rick. I assume he put that on himself. Rick wouldn't have issued any models with those "stripes", would they?

Re: it's always fun to visit wildwood's "new arrivals" page

Steve Mesple and the crew at Wildwood are absolutely outstanding. I visit the new arrivals page frequently, and I always bring my drool cup. I've bought a Les Paul and a strat from them. In the case of the Les Paul, I had chosen a '59 re-issue that I had seen on the website. When they took the guita...

Re: Bob Dylan

Dylan is the best, in my opinion maybe the most important musician/songwriter of our time. He influenced his peers as well as those who came behind. His 60's output was brilliant, his recent recordings have been great(Time out of mind, love and theft), and though there may have been some valleys, th...
