Very interesting stonegrove it makes you wonder if they think about anything since they don't know any language or logic.....


Actually I'm pretty sure I've heard about this before how babies are 100% observant up to a certain point when they start taking in and 'learning' some of the things they see

Hey twist do you mean a 335? 535's are a "Heritage Guitars #. They are made in the old Gibson plant in Kalamazoo by the employees who didn't go to Nashville when Gibson moved . The 535 is the Heritage version of a Gibson 335. Either way that's a score.

Hi Jimmy, A 535.........
Do any of you have that "special plant"? I got one that was planted the same time as his 17 sister's, (please, please, please) So all the other's come up fine.........so doober (I had to name it) comes up too . Ass fucking backwards. The white tip of the root comes up first. Before you all rag on me I planted them the same as the others, the tap root down.
So I plant again, and again ass backward's. So I gave doober another chance, he's not the sharpest knife in the twisty drawer. This time, right side up. For 3 day's he kept his helmet (seed casing) on... Now my "special" baby is doing great...When it's older we're taking him to be tested, I hope he's not autistic.......:roll:

Cool a 535 eh? That's even a little nicer than a real Gibson, the Heritage's are more nicely finished,and still have handwork unlike Gibsons which are being made on CNC machines.

I used to have a Tama Imperial star 13 piece with 15 paiste cymbals..This equipment rental guy I know bought it for the Commador's to use when they played Montreal...After he rented it out for a year, then sold it as deprieciated (sp) equip. I got it all for $600.00. My friend got a Strat for $300.00....Never got a deal like that since...During my trip to OZ (coke prob.) I sold it cheap.......$2,000...the value was $2,800. for drum's & $1,800. cymbal's.......What an ass :o

Bring back Live Music!! 20 years ago you could make a living playing clubs 6 nights a week in Ontario, now it's hard to find any paying gigs, disc jockies and karaoke have hurt badly. I'm just as glad to be out of the music business.
