Pip: got to play it! WOW! I forgot how different a fixed-bridge is!!!!
Initial thoughts: man, what a find! The flight case was almost immaculate, the body only has a couple of imperfections, a few minor scratches on the horn, some impressions on the back, and a minor rub on the front around the jack. Other than that it's awesome, so warm and full, but you switch to bridge and it is quite lively, can definitely be too sharp if you are careless.
Started with brother John (duh), and went through all the logical songs: midnight, day at the beach, baroque, tears in the rain, etc.. Was great for some backing riffs after that made me rock back in the chair and just pluck around for an hour or so after that. Great find.. Very smooth too. It arrived well intonated with a super-low action and straight neck - not sure who set it up...
Frets seemed a little high though, not sure if I'm just playing it too heavily, will play it a bit more over the next few days and get used to it.
Apple picked up my app in only a few hours and it's now in review. Cross your fingers everyone...
Also, the redundancy was not unexpected and quite welcome. A paid 4 month vacation to work on my own things... And play guitar!! :) not really fretting about work right now, might change my tune in a few months.. Lol

Al..do you think that Youtube vid was phony? I noticed that the camera guy kind of moved his camera a bit to the left right before it happened. Either way that poor guy probably did'nt feel much pain after the initial hit..yuk.

Dream Theater AND Iron Maiden? I am SO there! \m/
Glitz Man - What michelle said. :-) Introduce yourself with your T2J name...Joe should recognize you. Have a few questions in mind ahead of time so you're ready and not nervous when it's your turn in line. Most importantly, just be yourself. Joe is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, famous or otherwise, so you really have nothing to worry about.
...Austin...
