Re: Amy Hopkins needs our help after open heart surgery!

Time for some updates I think. We have about 6 days where the PayPal account was locked because they wanted confirmation of a physical Our old land line used to fulfill this requirement but after the flood we decided we didn't need it any more and canceled it. Seems that waited until right in the mi...

Re: Amy Hopkins needs our help after open heart surgery!

Ah, ok. I assume they gave it directly to Amy. I'm looking forward to see how we will do with the auction. Chuck, do you have a lot of stuff yet? I think they did give it to her but I wasn’t there. These fund raising efforts have all happened spontaneously and independent of each other. I haven’t a...

Our total is now past the $6000 mark in this effort. I have seen a number of donation from people I can see are musicians and luthiers. We have had donations from all over the UK.

Re: Amy Hopkins needs our help after open heart surgery!

It's about time you knew how that feels Amy. I thought folks might like an update on the Pay Pal and MIMF bass situations. Turns out Charles was right and people were not spooked away by the low Ebay seller score. The bass is up to $1,550.00 so it will sell. There are three more days on the auction....

Re: Les Paul with P-90s: Can't get rid of the hum

4) Hum does NOT change when you touch bridge, strings, or p/u switch nut. Ohmmeter confirms a ground connection at both bridge and p/u switch nut.

This doesn't make sense.

I'm starting to suspect the amp.
