Some
time ago Jeff H. had contacted me about a PE-450 he had posted on the Guitar
Gallery forums about. After fighting with it and realizing it was not quite
his style he came to the decision to let it go. Since I'm a bit of a PE
nut he asked me if I was interested. After a few e-mails back and forth,
and looking at the four pics he sent me we agreed to trade a couple of
hollows I had for it since I was not playing the hollows any more. The
pics gave me a pretty good idea what I was in for, but now that I'm close
to finished it was not as much of a pain as I thought it was going to be.
One of the hollows he got in trade has gone to a young aspiring classical
musician (piano and classical guitar). All involved are very happy with
the swap. I know I'm having a blast!

I
will say right at the start that Jeff had given me plenty of info on the
450, and the "obstacles" presented were not of his doing. I knew very well
what I was in for, and believe it or not, most of the time enjoy the "you
know what" out of bringing a jewel back to life again. This is easily one
of those times.
