Hey man, it's a guitar! :dunno

Right tools for the right jobs, eh? (Must be an odd job for these particular tools :scratch)

And, finnaly, when after you listen to the same song over and over and over, trying to nail that ellusive guitar part, a little stress relief.

Ovbiously no post work done to these. It's midnight and I'm up at 6a for work. Thus is the life of an obsessed hobbyist. :D (hmmmm, maybe someday I get to make a living doing what I actually like doing? :scratch)

    I have a dremel!

    It is often used to "cut" dog's toenails. I have not wanted to have the fight with my dogs that I know would ensue if I even thought to turn that thing on if they were in the house.

    Nice life. Too bad that work thing takes time away from the important things.
    You know how they say that when you are old, you won't care about the work, etc..................well, how you gonna eat, buy computers and cameras. Have to do some work.

    Nice shots, especially with no post.

    What's the guitar in the background on the left? I don't recognize the soundhole inlay design.

    A couple of years ago, in my mid-40's, I decided to learn to play guitar and have been taking lessons and working on it ever since. My wife says I don't have hobbies, I have obsessions!

    Cool shots!

    I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

    You know something, I have no idea what it is. I know it's a taylor, but I don't know the model off the top of my head. It's one of the guy's 'playing out' guitar, the one he gigs with. The martin was out all last night, ovbiosly some better tones to be had from it. mwink.gif

    And, thanks.

    Thanks.
