We finally got back into the studio last night, and though it was sort of a frustrating night, we got some really good things done. You can of course read more about that if you have access to the Studio Journal.
The eBay bidding went really, really well – raising another couple of hundred dollars towards the still-unnamed New Studio Album, and in general, things are moving pretty smoothly. I’ve written 41 emails this morning, and I’m looking for an excuse to write a 42nd. Not quite sure who that’s going to be to, but I’ve run out of things to talk about… hence the sort of inane biographical contents of this entry.
Also, took my poor Seagull into the shop today. Going to have some work done on that as well (at the moment, I’ve lost another key on my Alienware and my cell phone has ceased to work. Sigh) since I don’t trust the company that Seagull wanted to do the work through (Appalachian Bluegrass). Man, the more I find out about the guitar… It took forever to find a guitar that I Loved the sound of. I bought and returned a number of guitars, played a couple of dozen of them, and finally found this one that I Loved the sound of, Loved the playability of – sooo good. I bought it, installed a new pick up, reworked the neck… took it to a gig and put a hole in it during the sound check. Still Love the sound, still Love the way it plays…. now the intonation is off, and I figured I’d get that taken care of while it was in the shop… and the repair guy says that the reason that the intonation is off is that the bridge was installed slightly off of where it should’ve been. He can SORT of fix it. FRUSTRATION.
