I see the FG V63 has a dot at the 19th fret. What's up with that?

Yup, a renegade, apparently. My theory is that a 4003S board got mixed in with the V63 boards at assembly. Unusual, but probably not unique.teeder wrote:Looks great!

Re: Paul Boyer's book
Chris, you can order the poster through my website.
Right now, I'm waiting to hear back from Hal Leonard/Backbeat about solutions to a software compatibility problem we have. I've been building the books pages with Pages, a consumer-level page-making program which works great. Except they publish their books with InDesign, a professional-level publishing software, and the two programs will not talk with each other. In all likelihood, I will have to rebuild the book with InDesign which I hope to accomplish with the assistance of the graphic designer who helped me with the poster, book covers, and website. I figure I will have to either have her rebuild the pages, or learn to do it myself (shouldn't be too hard). I want to avoid having to shell out for the full suite InDesign software and would rather pay her for her time with me on her computer. I think once we make a series of page templates, we should be able to bang out eight to ten pages an hour easy (if it goes as I suspect). The other alternative is to hand over the book's text in Word and all the photos and let HL/BB design the book. That's not what I want. I've built more than 90 pages now, and I'm still waiting on a few photo contributions and the remainder of Ted Staberow's "anatomy" series. Still looking at completion this calendar year with publication in 2012. If Hal Leonard/Backbeat publishes it, you should have no problems locating a copy as it will be in bookstores, online, and on Amazon.
