I think that most of the forum members would agree with me that your mateship and continual support on this forum, for us, has been invaluable Doc. You have encouraged me when I have had major set backs in my builds and have inspired me to build pedals (and an amp someday). I can see that you have set exceedingly high goals for yourself and your pursuit of them is admirable, I just thought I should highlight some of your qualities that you may not get told sometimes. Building guitars is not easy, and when you put the better part of a year and finances into it it can be soul destroying if things go wrong. I've been there, and I've seen others go to that place as well. It's a rare thing though, after that time, when it's time to pick it back up and finish that build, I've seen some amazing builds come out of it. Take some time Doc, I'd love to see you finish this epic build thread
