Waaaaaaaaaay too cool!
Can you use a standard pack-seat with it or do you need to go with the matching dinette or soda fountain stool for the full effect????
Slick, slick, slick.  |

Stu...Looks like you made Chuck step out of the box on this one..Way KOOL..as we used to say back in the day!!
(Hope you didn't get rid of your D-10, the best looking guitar on the planet..IMHO!)

| Stu, if you ever have to sell it, it could have high resale value in Australia with all those boomerangs. Also might be something that David Lindley, the mutiinstrumentalist, would be proud to own too. Nice guitar. steve t |

Hey Stu,
Awesome new axe...totally Jetson's! (or possibly bowling alley/diner chic?) Would fit in nicely with your old pals the Retro Rockets (Jim Eppard, Paul Verdon, Charlie Knicely, Pete Levin, and sometimes me). Played with those guys last week,in Boiceville, NY, and they say hey.
LOVE that funky steel! Congrats.
Happy Holidays,
JW |

Hey Stu - that looks exactly like the lunch counter in the bowling alley where I used to eat chili dogs for lunch when I was in high school in 1962.
I guess you've outdone me 'cause my plain ol' red tiger strip maple Desert Rose won't be here until Thursday and nobody will have anything to talk about. I'll post some pictures, though. Y'know we really should start a definitive thread with nothing but DR photos and show people how pretty they are.
Skip
