Another fun fact: One of the coolest and least visited National Parks in the US is Dry Tortuga. It's about a two hour boat ride from Key West in Florida, and the home of the Civil War-era Fort Jefferson, which incidentally is where Dr. Mudd, who abetted the fugitive John Wilkes Booth, was...

Yep, I know. But I saw a chance to tell my snapping turtle story, and I seized it! :ROFLMAO:

There is a class of animals called "charismatic megafauna" and sea turtles fall smack dab in the middle of it. It's an easy sell. Among land turtles, I'd say giant tortoises also hit the bullseye. Little pond turtles probably hit the target too, but somewhere closer to the edge. They don't...

Not officially, but I bet for big-shots like you we could make it happen.

None scheduled as of now. But difficult to see. Always in motion is the future.

Plus...we have about a dozen in stock right now, if you want one quick.

Ya, but what about the salami roll, you sweaty sailor?

At 12:00 noon today (Pacific Time) Aaron will be LIVE on the Chairman of the Boards podcast!

Here is a pretty thorough comparison of Warmoth's replacement necks versus Fender's.

IMPORTANT: let's avoid discussing the thumbnail. It isn't reflective of the video's content, which focuses exclusively on guitars and Warmoth. I will delete any post that mentions it immediately. The video is a 90-minute conversation crammed full of good Warmoth information. Let's focus on that.

Nailed it. Stuck the landing. They always have an NPR kind of vibe, with all the whisper-talking, cringy half-jokes, etc. Maybe the worst one I've ever seen was Sting. Still.....if they ever asked me to do one I totally would. I guess you could call me pseudo-intellectually curious.

As with many colors, Pelham Blue is a bit of a moving target, but to my eyes Ice Blue has more silver, while PB is more blue.

So.....I'm not the biggest fan of Ted Talks for a variety of reasons. The cringy jokes and canned-sounding laughter in this one are par for the course, but there are also some well-written passages and universal truths to be found in it. Particularly the guitar-building content. I would love...

There have a been a few times I've scrutinized grain patterns, or nicks and scratches, or other distinguishing features to try and tell if a guitar is what I think it is. It's fun detective work!
