We shall share our builds on the forums!

Mine arrives today - I've told the missus that if she leaves the house today she can sleep on the couch. Her response to that was that I can sleep on the couch anyways. So YAY! More time with the guitar :p

*cough* I think Im developing an illness - I might not be able to go into work tomorrow... Might have to get a round of guitar body sanding antibiotics into me *cough... fake wheeze... cough*.

YAY!

There definitely is something going around depictedminds, best play it safe and stay home sanding recuperating. You don't want to get the whole office sick eh?

Y'know what *Cough, sniffle* I feel some Treble-itis coming on....need to go home and take a hefty dose of newly acquired baritone. *cough* splutter.

I wonder whether espresso or instant makes a similar tonal difference as it does a taste difference? There's an experiment for a rainy spring afternoon!

silly, everyone knows Moccona is tone coffee....

But you never know, the tone may be a bit more refined if you use proper coffee grinds....hahahaha.....

Geez, work must seem really dull if it's motivating people to call-in sick just so they can work on their guitar builds....haha.

So a light French roast for Cool jazz axe, Columbian dark roasts for Metal guitars and Jamaica Blue grinds for reggae?

Discovered this one recently and reckon it is about as good as you can get for an instant coffee. Downside is it costs just a bit over $10 for the 100g size. If we are talking grinds, when over in WA a couple of years ago discovered Yahava in Swan Valley and they are also down at Margaret River too. Best coffee anywhere and frequently order online along with plenty of their Peppermint Tea for the missus too.

Now Frankie, given your hypothesis above what axe style would this one be?

One thing is for sure, I reckon it would be right up Dedman's alley as he seems to currently have a penchant for things that are green.
