Wow Smelly...don't even know how to comment on the vid...watched it over and over again, just too funny! You really need to do a feature length knucklehead movie! :)

And that HH Al of yours is simply amazing! HUGE congrats buddy!

Wow, great story, guitar, and a hillarious vid!!!

BTW, Smelly, it seems pretty many BFR AL's were made on the 15th of May in 2008? :) Shouldn't we declare it some special celebration date?

Smelly you should get a job in film as an editor, another really funny and entertaining video lol.Congrats on that killer AL HH and good luck with your rehab bid. Would just like to give you a heads up that just about all rehab bids fail 90% of the time the first go round, and some are never able to kick.lol

Worry not, I'm not going anywhere, Just not spending! - I'm a knucklehead for life, just booked my flights for guitar nation - so the weird guy drooling at the balls on the walls - is me.....

the Video mis-sync'd when it was You Tube'd I had it perfect and it went wonky.....

Glad you liked it spud, Hope Jimmy takes it well!!! ;-)

All good - now back to my AL - (And rehab coffee!)

You know, that was pretty much how it was after the Knucklehead bash!!!

....the AL .... light and flexible with a huge range of tones….

The HH AL for me is the best bits of an AL with my ultimate pickup layout....

It’s raining in inverness – so no decent pics today….

Lovely axe. So, a quick question.

When you A/B the maple SSS Al, and new rosewood HH Al, are they worlds apart in feel and sounds, or is there something familiar between the two?

And more pics! Met office website reckons clear skies on Thursday up your way :)

I'm with you Smelly, not only am I not a buyer (for now and for different reasons) I am also down to two AL's in the herd, the Gremlin Sparkle SSS and the Mint HH (the "Greene Brothers"). I'll also back you up on the salute to Mr. B.

That Blue HH is a beauty and no matter what the ALOC is for life.

My other MM's have found good homes - the original Envy AL w/90's now belongs to my nephew and the natural Axis SS is going to my best friend since 4th grade's son who volunteered for the U.S. Army and is graduating from boot camp and special training this week. He will be a Cavalry Scout which will put him in harm's way the moment he is shipped out. I couldn't think of a better home for either, and there is also a plan in place for the others if things don't go well.

I must say though, I cannot agree on the last part of the deal. If things go better than expected, I am treating myself to a serious buying spree :D

General Greene you honour my post with your presence! -I can report that outpost Inverness is secure and I will fight to protect the ALOC at all costs.

I look forward to your health returning to 100% and the Greene Brothers and Blues Brothers getting a play date!

Sir Private Smelly returning to duty sir

Congrats, Smelly! Beautiful guitar.

Fantastic video! LOL, literally. The Fing cameo is classic.

I have a feeling you'll have a relapse ... sometime soon after NAMM 2011 maybe?

Best wishes!
