Hesh, that is hillarious brother!!!    I especially like the 'MY' bathroom in capital letters.... Maybe it's time you move the shop to a closet?

Very nice handwritting! You think that would make a nice inlay?

At least it wasn`t written with a toilet brush!
Really, though it looks nice, and she should get some kind of acknowledgement.

Thankfully she used ink that is so cool, my wife leaves notes around my shop that make my day much happier.

Hesh, I just got to wondering, how come we don`t hear from Lacey? Whether she knows it or not, she`s got her place among us.
I think I would forego the toilet idea and maybe go with the good ol` TP holder.

Hesh, I think Lacey's sentiment belongs somewhere on your label.
That'd be perfect.

If you ever doubt what Andy said about women being always right, just remember that Andy is always right
As for strange things written in guitars I have to think a bit, I am still getting over the enormous spider that crawled out of a 50's Martin I was putting a cleat in. I swear it was a byproduct of nuclear testing. It is now a native NYer.

Hi guys! Yes, I am ALWAYS right. Sometimes it just takes him a bit longer to realize this Steve, if you're suggesting a change in the label that took me weeks to get right, I'd definitely have to hurt you. Hesh said, "honey create me a label". What I didn't know is he already had one created in his head and I had to guess and redo until I got it exactly right. We both cringe a bit at the L word in this house. heh...but in the end...yep....I was right!

Smart woman...My wife would say that any woman who has her family bathroom taken over to build guitars deserves credit too...! You're lucky that's all she did! She's a keeper!Don Williams38828.6061342593

To be forewarned is to be forearmed!
Actually, Lacey, I'm on your side. I'm just thinking you should get the credit you so richly deserve, and it should be a more prominent place then the underside of the top. If the label is still too sensitive an area, then perhaps you could come up with something for the peghead. You're artistic as well as right!

Steve

Welcome, Lacey!!    Gentlemen, we are in the presence of greatness. We are all impressed with your work. Also, now we can get both sides of some of those stories that Hesh comes up with.        Really nice to have you here.

Lacey,

Couldn't you have stopped that sunburst?
