David Schwab	That's so funny! And seeing him winding by hand up against the fridge! It doesn't sound bad either! Go figure!

stan	Guess I'm ashamed to say it, but I also thought it sounded pretty good. A regular McGyver, this guy...

Kevin	"Start off by eating your two popsicles." He's taken the art of step-by-step instructions to a whole new level. Very enjoyable reading. I love this kind of stuff. Kevin

regis	This guy reminds me of John Fisher. John could build a nuclear reactor out of a couple of radium watches, an old Chrysler water pump and lead plates from a worn out car battery.

Ron	From all of the bad things that I have heard about neo magnets, I wouldn't have thought that it would sound that good. Those are some big neos too! Time for some experiments. Maybe with smaller magnets though. I don't think that string pull would be a big deal for a bass guitar.
