Welcome! Please read the columns about (roughly) GAS, It's not my fault, and you should have warned me! It will do little good but at least I will sleep tonight and the lawyers will back off. Also, please notify your wife, girlfriend, boyfriend, partner, better half, future x, or sex buddy about the guitar widow's support page.

From a patriotic point of view, the Gretsch OCD around here singlehandely keeps the economy going. You volunteered. just sayin'...

Meanwhile, pull up a chair, have a drink, and we'll throw a guitar on the fire. Now, first off, a word about G strings...
