Good point Francois! The avatar is a few years old but still no beard, and at -20c with the wind chill here today, I could sure use one!

Yes ! You really need a beard. It's the best solution when it's cold :

impressive beard! nice spin this thread took. Haha let´s continue!
btw my beard is rather young so I can´t promise it will stay forever. some people from my direct environment (the wife) still has to get used to it :D

btw - François
did you refret your Morse? I remember some horrible fretwear some years ago...

No refret, but I used a fret file for leveling the frets. I bought this one :

The result is not perfect (if I level perfectly the frets, they will be too low), but that's good for me and my poor playing skills :eek: :

These photos are recent. It was better just after I did the job, but of course I played a lot with my Morse thus the fret wear is back with a vengeance ...
