I am just not a great enough player to think that changing anything on my guitar is going to result in nirvana. My issues are just lining up three notes in a row that sound good to my ear. I do appreciate an instrument set up correctly and that is as easy to play as possible but I do not have any illusions that a hardware change will make me turn into Matteo Mancuso. I own more than my share of Heritage guitars. Many old and and one Marv made for me. Just interested in playing music, no interest in part replacement.

I am glad that this has come to an end. Making music should not be this hard. Good luck with the search and thanks for the great story. Also watch your back, that girl sounds nuts. y2kc

SRV used some big strings but also tuned down a tad. It is amazing how much tension is removed when tuning down a half step. My son grew up playing with 11's because of Stevie but at the age of 35 he has changed to 10's. His hands are very strong and he is enjoying the change. I hope to bring him along with me this year to psp. RIPSRV, Y2kc

The Bluesboy is the only modern G&l I am interested in. What pick-up did your guitar come with in the neck position, a Seth Lover? I have heard the Bluesboy is a wonderful guitar. Tim Page at Buffalo Bros. designed that with G&L. Good to hear you are digging the Fralin, y2kc
