Music teacher, instrument repair technician, doggie daddy. Euphonium, Guitar, Bass.
This one is the closest I have. It’s a kit. I added some extra stuff like locking tuners, fine tune tailpiece and Duncan P-rail pickups. Like a P90, stuck next to a single coil. Coil-tapping switches built into mounting rings. Fun stuff.

To each and every person who is following me here, I hope you are all safe, warm and have someone to be with today. I’m helping one of my adopted daughters keep her cats from freezing, while she and partner are with other family. Furnace is down, parts are in transit. Space heaters save the day. 🏳️‍⚧️

Everything from Polkas to Show tunes. I play an electric stand-up bass and 4 or 5 string electric basses. I play Euphonium too. Guitar, when needed. Here’s that Jaguar bass, next to its sister J bass. Rebuild both with aftermarket necks. Built the guitars in next picture too. 335 variant from a kit

For Trans Day of Remembrance, I would like to offer a few words about Mia Addams Haflett . She was a trans woman who I discovered had one of my adopted daughters as her trans mom. Mia was a tattoo artist who gave me my first and only (So far) ink. Died of Covid/Cancer complications. See next reply >

With all the crazy stuff going on out there…Fur baby. My Puerto Rican Princess Terrier, Corazon! (Cory) I made up that breed name. She and her twin brother came over with a friend who had relatives in PR. 13 y.o.
Just had some minor dental surgery and other stuff done. Still plays like a puppy.

This is what Obama said, back in 2011, Trump would do to the White House. It’s all coming to pass, except uglier and more expensive.

If you sent a message to Joni Ernst about not being paid for protesting, THIS is the bullsquash reply you received. Check out the email link and give her a piece of your mind.

Let dad see this and ask him, "Who's a fascist now?"

Every protest I’ve attended this year has had more and more people wearing the trans flag and sporting signs that uplift trans folks. This one in Cleveland was special. My friend Renae, a trans woman, stood with me and my wife. I held this sign. We both fended off religious proselytizers.

Trump tariffs are hitting hard. The price of this tool kit for making wooden dowel plugs is double the price, from G.B. Couldn't find this exact set in U.S. Making round cleats for inner repairs on violins and 'celli. Some G.B. sellers will NOT ship to our country. I left a kind note to the seller!

This visual aid gives us some idea as to why your comment here rings so true. I am so thankful that we have intelligent people like you in our country. Glad you’re here. Carry on!!

These cosplay comedians keep giving us ammunition. They give foreign nationals 3-D printed guns in a display. Check this one out! Kash Patel at his stupidest. (So far, the day is still young) Article from Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper.

This one came out nice! Had to fix broken wiring in the output jack too. Nice guitar. Would recommend this model. Happy customer. He bought it second-hand. Got lecture from me on paw-washing.
