    Speaking of Sparkles Travis,
    Does that local shop by you still have that Gremlin Green AL?
    I remember you posted on the Guitar side about it. I sent them an e-mail once to find out about it - they never responded and I never followed up.

    You will NEVER get an email response. I think they may still have it. The number is 706-323-1809 if you want to call them.


    Ken, I loves me some burnt apple.

    Some pics of my first EBMM, a Stratus Blue Sparkle SR, "Ol' Blue Eyes". It's gone now, due to my utter noobishness. In retrospect, the pictures I took weren't that great. ooooooo well
