WELCOME BACK John Lasater!!!!! Long time no hear or see. Great to have you
back. Bob I am sure can give you more info on those but it sounds like ones
that I already have, I am not to organized about what's what though. Check
in with Mr. JoniMusic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Bob Muller!
Hows the guitar playing??? Ready for a VG-8?? We are a huge VG-8
community now. I have been finding quite a few in the $550 range now. Hope
all is well with you.
