    "the final tribute."

    Well, I'm sure Dennis is very happy.

    Andrew, Apache? Ok if I do a demo, it will be Theme for "Young Lovers", the first solo song at a wedding in about 1972, I can only think of a little bit of it but maybe.

    Rabbitz, RED, guess the pix makes it look red, but both my wife and Dennis's wife think it's orange. Just might be something like Hanks.

    Thanks Stan.

    If the photos come out, it will be titled "The Final Tribute". If you know why, I'll say no more, if you don't ask me (but I shouldn't need to tell).

    Oh The flash has been a little nasty to the pix and don't worry about the iron cord or anything else in the back ground.

    Rick.

    Thanks for the complements on the finish, unfortunally this is not my build, Dennis built it.

    I don't think I could take the time (no patience) as I always want to start playing it after it starts to "look like" a guitar.

    SO all the good words belong to Dennis (my brother in law).

    Thanks Guys.

    Rick.
