Right.

Do you have any relicing tricks to make new masking tape look like that old "pickup lead wrapping" masking tape?

I could just try leaving it out in the sun for a few afternoons.


Sad thing: I've probably thrown away hundreds of dollars worth of old masking tape! :cry:

Could try my method of pickguard yellowing and suspend it above an ashtray with 10 lit cigarettes smouldering away.

We could start an ebay business and make a fortune. My uncles got a load of old TV's we could strip for electronic components and sell as obscure amp parts. I've already been through the valves.

Niki,

I don't suppose there could be ANY truth to the rumor that Susan Boyle was your old girlfriend?

This thread is called "Want a good laugh...." so I figured to try to get a laugh. I was thinking, for the briefest of moments, at directing it at you, but figured NN was a funnier target.

Actually, Susan Boyle was my old girlfriend. As she told the world, we didn't get very far...

Well the distance thing was really a problem. It was a whirlwind affair, she's quite the lady. Sadly her cat took first place in her heart and i couldnt deal with being second best.


My voice proves there has never been any collaberation between Miss Boyle and myself. I sound like a strangled pig when attempting to sing.

Opposites do attract, right?



Ask any magnet!

Funnier target indeed, no one would ever call me the straight guy.

Some opposites attract, sadly not over 400 miles with a cat in the way.

These sellers are totally missing the point of having a chop-shop.

:lol:
