Remarkable Nate! Incredibly thoughtful, insightful, and inspiring art!

Very cool album Gary! I purchased (with an add above the meager $0 price...) Very enjoyable and inspiring!

Hi Bill, I've been following all the D13 posts closely - yours included! Your messages in a bottle are being read!

Thanks!

Yep, shipping costs at McMaster Carr is an issue, especially if only buying a few little bits. I buy a fair amount of fasteners and other raw materials for jeep projects from them, so adding some lit ...

Hey Brian Lee, I had that 12 string for a couple of years too, if you ever get the chance to remove the neck, you'll find it's signed underneath by Zane. I did an overspray on the body and repainted ...

That's a beauty Russ!

I've had the exact same problem! Glad I'm not the only one. My hands have always been dry. It's great for regular guitar because my strings last a long time, but for holding on to the bar it's a real ...

David,
Beautiful pooch and steel. They looked great together! So sorry to hear that they have both moved on...

Hi Brett,

Hi Pat,
Thanks, and good question! I bought mine after it was built. It was available "in stock" at the time, and it really clicked all the boxes for me. I love the wood and finish choic ...

Thanks Mike and Eric!
The 12 string is a real beauty. The wood has some nice flame and figure, and I love the two tone natural / brown finish and ZB tone.

Mike, your SD-11 is very cool. The fad ...

Great video post Bill! I just started learning PSG last December, and my odometer will roll over to 68 this week- so I’m in the same boat. Great to hear your experiences and others too. I’ve been ...

Beautifully played by Sveinung! Really soulful and sensitive. Fun to hear the different guitars, and the video / audio editing is sure seamless! It’s sure a nice example of how much tone comes from ...
