She's back!!!
I am more than pleased, and couldn't have picked a better man to do the refinish work.
The setup is nice, the intonation is dead on, and she sounds better than ever.

You're confused, Alvaro.
I'm the curmudgeon.
Dale is the grouch, and then only in the morning.
Great job with a light touch, Dale!

I'm looking forward to seeing it at M.A.R.C.!!! If you can't make it, I'd be glad to stop by on my way in from Ohio and pick it to show everyone.

Ack!
As my friends and loved ones can attest to, I am usually confused to one degree or another! My apologies for not giving credit where credit is due! (Although I still give you kudos on your work as well Paul!)
Wonderful job on Bob Scott's 4002 Mr. Fortune!

Bob...what kind of tuners are those on your most gorgeous 4002? I thought the were Scaller M4's bit they look like Gotohs from the rear.

Bob, It doesn't look all that good.
As a favor to you, I'll be willing to take it off your hands, and save you further embarrassment.

Dane, they are indeed Schaller M4 tuners.
Thanks for all the great compliments!

Dale, how else am I going to get Bob to sell it to me???
Careful with that saw now.
In all seriousness, that 4002 is one of the nicest finishes that I have ever seen.

My next Ricky project will have that finish on it and I'm using the pics to get it right.
