I can't wait to see Lance at noon today...I'm sure he will be touched by the thought, consideration and kindness you have shown toward his secret passion for rock banjo music. Banjollica, the legend lives on. laughing6-hehe

It just goes to show that nothing is sacred and out of reach of "Billy the Kid". Well done amigo! [:Y:] [clap] [clap]


Thanks JJ!! Lance is such a straght ahead seeming kind of guy he's like the perfect straight man! I PM'd him to make sure he was OK with this!

That is beautiful JJ. What a great finish! What's the significance of the triangle logo?

Terry...Thanks.

The logo is pretty simple...3 dots for "My Three Sons".

Wow, what a beautiful guitar! You mentioned Seymour Duncan pickups. Which models? I love Seymour Dunncan pickups. I have the sh2 jazz in the neck of one of my guitars. Can't say enough about it. I've also got the sh4 jb in the bridge. It's a good pickup too, but I may switch out to the '59. That too is an awesome pickup in the bridge or neck. Hard to beat Seymour Duncan unless you get into boutique pickups. Those can run into some real money. :D

Those are the SD PUPs that we chose as well! Imagine that! Additionally, I will be using a '59 on a carved top electric that is currently in finishing. Stay tuned for that one in a few weeks.
