Tony, I'm operating at about 30%, and the pain is something that almost sidetracks me, every night. I'm not at all happy with my performance, and it HURTS. That's why all these little jobs are pretty low key...nothing fast...lots of ballads...slow, pretty pieces.

Don't know if I'll ever get back to 1/2 where I was. I'm taking these jobs as therapy more than income. If I don't hurt myself more, I'll continue with 50% of my jobs on stringed instruments. If not satisfied by the holidays, there will be the biggest guitar sale you've ever seen!

I hope that isn't necessary, but I don' t know!
