Greetings from MI

I just started playing my Seagull S6 acoustic after many years away from it. I'm basically starting over but enjoying it. The internet has some really good instruction!

Always loved the looks and sound of the Telecaster and will have one some day. Nice forum here.

Bill

Welcome
Half hour east of Lansing here, Livingston County.
Your story is pretty much the same as mine. Hang around here and you might decide to build that Tele, thats what I wound up doing and wouldn't have it any other way.

I'd love to build one. I'll need a wider neck anyway, at least 1 3/4" to match my Seagull's finger board.

Hey hey Papa Joe.. I spent 34 (1958 thru 1992) years living in Brighton.. Moved to Fowlervillie and spent 4 years there. Headed for SC in 1996.. If you were around Brighton duing the time frame my family owned George's Mobile and Pat's resturaunt there on Grand River by the Dodge dealership.

Welcome from NYC!

For a moment there I thought you were from the Musicians Institute. :-)

Well Papa Joe I guess so. Just a few miles south of Fowlerville. Stomped all over these parts myself since getting tired of Livonia where I grew up. Actually before that.
Just a country boy I guess.

Frankie, I thought that was the station/resturant on Old 23 just south of Grand River. Maybe not, if its where you say it was must have been near the paint store. Did you know my friend Steve Sultana ? We called him Meatball,(RIP Steve) he bought the old City Collision shop from I think it was Grover that owned it.

Sorry K31 Scout, don't mean to hijack.
Maybe I need to sponsor a TDPRI Michigan Jam
