I am going to have to think about the ramifications of having the 5th string peg at the 7th fret...hummmmm

Good observation, John. The neck is shaped correctly, I think, but the peg is set at least 1 fret further back than it probably ought to be. So that makes me think the luthier was some sort of gifted amature. Doesn't help the value, does it?

MP3: What Would The Prophets Say?
Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: The religious basis of authority in the Middle East (or anywhere for that matter) is the source of a lot of suffering and is unsustainable. The violence is mostly perpetrated on women and children.

MP3: You'll Never Leave Texas Alive
Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: A sad murder ballad of a sort. Some murderers wear nice clothes and use pens and paper to kill and never see their victims.

MP3: Ten Years On
Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: A lament, written for the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Sadly there are still parents who are irresponsible or foolish, and parents who suffer as a result.

MP3: Shutdown The System
Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: The pursuit of money is alienating, enervating, and exhausting. Here’s a song of resistance to finance capitalism.

MP3: Take The Wheel
Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: A song about mentorship, inspired by my mentor and HIS mentors too, that takes the form of the story of a ship’s mate being “shown the ropes”. The old sea captain may also have been a long-neck player
