The amount of snark around here is just amazing this morning trying to work on aria Les Paul
I have set up on the kitchen bar it is a island bar in middle kitchen. Why because my wife has been working from home and she has taken over my workshop room as her office. I’m totally ok with that no problem we’ll sort of . My work bench has been replaced with her desk loaded with a laptop and 2 monitors.
My wife has organized my workshop as in actual putting up boxes of parts pickups on shelves. So I cannot find a dam thing, so I set up on kitchen bar with clamps were gonna do a fret job on this aria leopard. Also new pots and bumblebee caps and new bone nut.
Once again the Japanese of the late 70’s proved to me they were making guitars equally as well if it had Gibson on headstock. Lite nitro finish beautiful maple cap one piece Mahogany neck two piece mahogany body.
This morning my wife comes into kitchen to get her coffee. As I am sitting watching our son teaching him to remove original fret wire.
Wife - sighs then says well I guess we have lost the kitchen bar for awhile.
Man - trying to be non confrontational dear look at this. If this had Gibson on head stock this would had sold for $3000 instead of $600. Look at that tenon all the way from neck Cavity into body. Look at the routing and this neck joint immaculate.
Wife - Says I’ll be in my office
Man - Replies oh you mean my old workshop
Three dogs - golden a lab and a Newfie sitting in kitchen hey guys are we gonna have a little something something. Guys dogs smelling danish at other end of the bar.
Then my mother in law walks in get her coffee.
Mil - well I guess I’ll have my coffee and do my crossword. At the dining room table this morning.
Man or son in law - I replied you will probably be doing it at the table for at least two three days tops.
