Hi to all--much enjoyment from reading the recent posts, especially on the indefinable and highly subjective topic of tone--lost my favorite squareneck earlier in the year (the artist I was working with, Butch Walker, fell in love with it, and bought it without a second thought, so not a sad story by any means--Butch and the Black Widows will be playing it on Letterman this Friday); and Paul B. was kind enough to send me on spec a terrific maple sunburst Odyssey, a bit over the top, with a Caduceus on the headstock (but I'm a medical doctor, so it's ok), and tree of life on the fretboard--interesting, getting used to no dots or markers. The sound is to die for...that's about it, just wanted to say hello to everyone, and if I'm not holed up in the studio, will be out on the road in your town one of these days...Cheers, Stephen 'Doc' Patt
