This may be a stupid question, but what the hell are you talking about?

Oh, BTW I am through with making my Alligator, it came out nice. I left my camera at my sister in laws on a family visit, I will try and get pics for you/everyone soon....
I used brass and put in the tune o matic bridge, whole nine yards. I did it all the brass work with a door kick plate. The action was high so I shimmed it and it plays like a dream. I know, this thread is worthless without pics,,,,,,,

Yes... it would appear totally cryptic.

There is a new show on Wednesday nights at 10 called 'Happy Town'. The sheriff's deputy made some obscure reference to JG when talking about what happens to your kids when you realize they aren't small anymore. And before I forgot what it was, I wrote it down. I was curious if anyone else caught the reference. Sorry for confusion.

JB-

Yea... let's see some pics! I am really interested in how your brass turned out using a kickplate. I considered doing that, myself. Did you have much problem getting clean edges? Did you use a bandsaw and Dremel to file and polish the edges? A Tun-o-matic bridge too... interesting. So what did you do about the Strat tremolo? Did you remove it entirely and fill the tremolo cavity and use a stop tail with the Tun-o-matic?

Definitely post some pics when you have the opportunity.
