"I would like to add that we’re talking about an era in history (1957) when words like high tech and cutting edge were not yet a part of our vocabulary."

Just for you, Cal… The two buzz words for good sound and bad sound back then were Hi-Fi and Lo-Fo. In the studio when the producer wanted more highs they said, “Can you give us a little more S-s-s-s-s and a little less Whwu-u-u-u-u-w.
And that’s the rest of the story.

E- Well, that's a good start, but what I had in mind was a multi-DVD disk multimedia presentation with stories about sitting around drinking Shot's whiskey and inventing tunings and knee levers, riding on the bus for a hundred miles lost in thought and then jumping up and saying "Yeah, that'll work!" and running to the back to make some change to your axe, and the Emmons prototype that your dad made at the Bendix factory in So. Bend... If this isn't feasible, I'll settle for a spiral-bound booklet printed at Kinko's.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER><FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Cal Sharp on 20 May 2004 at 09:47 AM.]</p></FONT>
