Man, wish in one hand and spit in the other. That means envy is eating on me. Absolutely beautiful Ron.

I think there is a bunch of us waiting to here about how well those space age changers are going to work. Love to have a set in my guitar. Keep it coming, Ron.

Hey Ron, Can,t wait to see the end plates, Please Hurry??!
