The man replies, “Yes I am, how did you know?”

The cashier says “Because you are ugly.”

Chest Pain

I was sitting on the sofa watching some TV last night, when my wife from the bedroom yelled, “Do you ever get pains in your chest like someone with a voodoo doll is stabbing it?” I replied, “No.”

Then she asked, “How about now?”

Jazz Bass All Done*

The bass is all back together and works great!  There were some hurdles along the way but it came out great.

The pickups sound awesome and the P Bass pick is super powerful and just what I wanted.

Still to do…  My knobs didn’t fit so more are on the way.  I did not counter sink the screws in the pick guard yet.  One of the wires that came with the pickups is real short and I want to replace it.  Kill switch pops pretty bad so I want to add resistors to hopefully quiet it down.

I’ll upload a sound demo later.

I got some new knobs and they look cool
