Porting a 066BB

I've got to get back on it....I kinda dropped the ball and haven't played much since Christmas. It's amazing how much you can learn from YouTube.

I landed a sweet deal on my first guitar at a pawn shop.....I got a made in Japan "Vista Series" Fender for a C-note!! It will do nicely for now.

I might as well jump in derailing this thread some more.

I'm 45 and just decided to try learning the guitar too (been mucking around for about 6 months now).....Never too late I guess, but as much as I suck, I'm coming along slowly and it feels good when you play something and can start to hear the songs....I'm striving to head in a blues direction.

The OCD in me makes it hard not to start with a bad case of GAD to go with the CAD.:hmm3grin2orange:

Yep, been watching allot of youtube. If you haven't check these guys out, awesome for blues lessons. YouTube - rockongoodpeople's Channel

I look on the local used site every day for guitar deals. Mine's just a $200 Yamaha, but sounds really nice. I've told myself, I got to pick up the guitar every day, min of 15minutes, I usually do at least 30min, sometimes more.

Yup blues is good stuff. One of the easiest to learn actually. I'm only just doing basic stuff right now.

Check out Lightnin' Hopkins or Robert Pete Williams, if you like blues. They are the best, IMO.

Amazing stuff is out on the popular video posting site.

Not that I'm aware of. The 660 of today still uses the same coil, 1122-400-1314. The 441 has a limited coil but its the only large Stihl that I know of thats rev limited.

The new 880 is too,11000rpm

The Martin factory is just a few towns away from me. I had no idea the history behind it until recently. I'm certinly not musician, just a big fan of music in general. Nothing bets the country and rock-a-billy of Johnny Cash's era. Sun Records must have been an amazing place. Its ashame that the best of the newer artists are only able to be heard on sat. radio. Way to many Tim McGraws and not enough Hank III's, and Drive by Truckers.

Check out:
Whiskey & Co.
Whitey Morgan & the 78's
Sacred Cowboys

I have more Johnny and Waylon than anything else...
