Be careful installing a bender

Brick · August 1st, 2008, 09:10 PM

Not long ago I got a Hipshot B bender, slapped it on my beater tele, and was instantly hooked.........

..........then I said to myself, what would it be like having 7 benders on a guitar. I now have a pedal steel in my music room. It's the most fun I've had with a musical instrument in a long time. So much so that I'm going to be taking lessons for the first time in years. You definitely have to kick the foot tapping habit.

I'm missing something here......but I do know what a tosser is.

Bender......hummm....would I get slapped if I asked a young lady about it?
