jimmyb625 Posted November 28 Posted November 28 I'm still in! I haven't been on here for a good while. I think the two may be linked... 3 3 Quote

I’m wavering on a full, level 1 fail (‘Ray GAS for a change), but I may just avoid it by doing some bass surgery with parts I have in my bits and pieces case. 1 Quote
Richard R Posted November 28 Author Posted November 28 Remember too Black Friday bargains are usually just stuff the retailers can't get rid of, or that they've discounted previously anyway. Quote

TimR Posted November 29 Posted November 29 I am not tiny! I am still in. Truss rod adjusted last month - seems the saddles are at the lowest they'll go. Still plays well. 1 Quote

Sad to hear that - been there myself and only just now got out of it. Why not start an off-topic thread with your skill set stated ? Maybe someone here knows something … maybe their employer is hiring, which did actually happen to me this time. Edited November 29 by Geek99 5 1 Quote
