    I don’t comment here often but have watched every single episode from day one. I started thinking today about how Homeskoolin and Uncle Larry has been a constant companion over the last few years. Especially during the Corona Lesson days. Damn near made me tear up.. it’s such a joy to witness all of this.

    Dude I’m with you, I’ve been here from day one and haven’t missed a episode. I do appreciate how each episode has gradually gotten longer . I remember the early episodes at 9 minutes and I was craving more. The world is a better place because of Uncle Larry.

    So good. I still remember walking into Gruhn’s for the first time in ‘19 when we’d just moved to town. Amazingly, there was Phil Lesh’s mid 70s “Mission Control” bass staring back at me. Then checking out everything that was out on the main floor. My jaw was slack the entire time I was there. Gruhn’s and McCabe’s in Santa Monica (where I learned to play guitar too many years ago) are what I consider to be heaven. Tom, please make it back there so we can see the end result of the work on that ‘59 burst and the pre-war 000-18 neck reset. Thanks for this episode! Killer. ⚡️

    Boy, there's some major experience in that room. They've probably seen just about everything in the repair realm. You can tell how much they enjoy sharing what they do. Doesn't hurt that Tom asks interesting and informed questions either. As usual, I planed to skip through the dull parts, and there weren't any. What a great behind the scenes look into vintage guitars.
