Get healthy, Tim. I'd hate to actually out-drive you for once on the golf course when I come over to Greater Metropolitan Morral to pick up the guitar next week, and you having the excuse that you've been ill. Frankly, you at eighty percent is still gonna be longer off the tee than me at one hundred percent!

Btw, as per Trevor's guitar: looks like coco...tastes like coco...makes Mary itch like coco...

Must be coco!!!

Hey, Kurt!

You will see Trevor's guitar box next weekend. It looks prettier than the golf course does!

This thread is really not assisting in the "one McKnight is enough for now" idea that I've been trying to convince myself of recently...thanks for the photos, Trevor, I know you will be pleased with the results.

Hmmmm, maybe I shouldn't cut it. I know this man well. He will make me carry all the guitars when we travel!

More progress on the neck and fretboard. I love Tim's fretboard inlays.
