So either you have a guitar coming or you're planning to bite his leg?

Probably both, in all the excitement. Just try not to bite the guitar...

So does the UPS or FedEx guy count as postman? If it were a HNGD, it won't be the postman, right???

I guess that was a cryptic post. What I meant to say was, I am Still waiting for my Setzer headstock decal and Bigsby bar to arrive, so that the wild rumpus can begin.

Rumpus depends on a decal and a Bigsby bar? You folks apparently do things a big differently, down yonder.

Well yeah, I don't live in Los Angeles anymore, it's a bit slower in Perth. That's what gets me off these days.

At least you could head on over to Little Creatures if you need to while away the hours...

Hey it arrived today! When I install it I'm going to put the I" spring upgrade I added to the stock Bigsby that the guitar came with. It's cool to have that bumpy finish on the flip side of my Bigsby instead of on the front like my old one.

It would make sense to have you wang bar upside down in the southern
hemisphere.
