When you have no practical skills, it helps to have friends who do! A million thanks to Bill Holbrook who, besides being a great guy and a fabulous pedal steel player, is also a master sign maker. Not only did he make these snazzy new fretboards for my new-to-me Carter, but he helped me put them on. (That's a lie. I helped him put them on.) (A little.) (Okay, I watched him put them on.)
And along the same lines, special thanks to Tommy Cass for noticing the alignment issue on the back rail that was keeping the rightmost pedals and knees from moving as freely as they could. I went with the washers solution Tom; worked great! |
