Those kinds of guys can certainly shop at Gruhn's or Mandolin Brothers, not to mention the major companies will certainly replace their endorsement pieces. I feel bad for regular guys like me, the road musicians, etc., that don't have pockets that deep. I live on a hill so I was spared, as was half the city. But the other half more than makes up for it.

Hopefully some of them can be restored.

Needless to say he risked his life for a chunk of wood and his wife was distraught over it all Is it worth it?? lbpesq Senior Member Username: lbpesq Post Number: 4414 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Tuesday, May 11, 2010 - 7:01 am:    Depends.
