Re: How the ***** do you eat this and keep a straight face
The only possibility would be about 1:30, 2:00 am on footpath outside a pub, club or bar with a stomach full of ale Martin and heaps of sauce.

Re: anyone know what this wood is?
Markus and Pete are on the money and heed the advice they have given. For my 2 bobs worth not knowing what the timber is personally i'd never use it for any structural part on a guitar. There is a lot of blood, sweat, tears and money one way or the other goes into building an axe so i'd be going wit...

Re: Joni Mitchell in Hospital ICU
You're right about that Martin, she won me over the first time i heard the B side of Big Yellow Taxi ie Woodstock which was just her voice and solo piano. And imagine if she had never been a chain smoker.

Re: Just bought this book
Speaking of The Books Martin, which i do not own, how often is it that any author avails themselves of open and repeated answering of questions and not just to those contained in the books? We are pretty lucky i reckon.
