I didn't get a single piece of gear, and I'm really glad and happy that my wife didn't get me anything guitar related.

I got a coat, and a dremel tool set (which will come in handy for all the projects I do!), and some games and such. Congrats to all on the gear acquisition front! (Good idea Billy!)

I got an X2 wireless (which is by far the best wireless unit I've ever played) and an EB Volume Jr. from my bro. I am quite satisfied.

And with some of the money, a Jazzmaster is going to be coming soon!

No gear here...but that's cause there's nowt I wanted. Some fantastic prezzies though, and a tortoise in the New Year, so I'm happy!

Merry Christmas all by the way!

Got a bunch a crap. What is it about gift cards that people don't understand? Got slippers that don't fit, jeans that don't fit, a guitar strap that's uncomfortable, cologne that I didn't ask for and don't like.
The best thing about Boxing Day is that Christmas is OVER.

Not to sound ungrateful but...A hearty handshake and sharing a dring with those close to you is what it's all about. Ready to throw that stupid tree out .

I am just getting the desktop. I'd really like the MEK for the extra control but it's just too expensive. It will be a perfect addition along side my Alesis Micron and Korg MS2000R. Analogue!!! : )

I got a rain suit for my motorcycle, a fullmetal alchemist pocket watch from my little brother, and a bose iPod dock which sounds AMAZING! Because everyone else is back on the mainland I told them to save their money on sending me things because shipping it here costs so much.

I'm treating myself to all the gear I posted about a couple days ago so I'm excited about that. And I'd like to say that I agree with Christmas being about spending time with people you love. We all enjoy gifts, but I'd give back everything I got in order to be with my family today rather than being stuck here in hawaii... those of you who get to spend today with your family, you are blessed, and I hope that you dont take a single second of that time for granted. Merry Christmas to all of you and have fun playing with your new toys!!

Wish your day had been better Frank...

I got absolutely "zip" and couldn't be happier. I still have my
wonderful wife, and great friends, and one of the gifts I sent a very
dear friend made her so happy it made Christmas really worthwhile and super for me.

I still have decent/fair health, what more can I ask for...all of you on the forum are
Awesome, for that I am also very thankful!

:D:)

Man I would love a dremel!! You can scallop your own necks with those

notagain · Post by **notagain** » Tue Dec 25, 2007 8:25 pm

Thought we already decided scalloped necks
were for sissy's....

Just kidding my friend, just kidding!

But now I am sure Neil will have to try it!

:D:twisted::twisted::D:)

diy scalloping of necks sounds dangerous!

what does it do anyway?

The biggest thing they do is turn your hair black and give you
a neatly trimmed black beard. Oh, and a nice black leather jacket...
Kinda like that Rob guy...
