That's right Tom,
Mine are Planet Waves and they've been on for almost a year, and I'm not all
that sure about them yet. They have their good and bad points, but so far,
they're still on Blackie.
Oh and this is NO ENDORSEMENT....NO FINANCIAL GAIN....ETC. AND YOUR MILEAGE MAY
CERTAINLY VARY.
Keep Twangin,
Richie

I think Richie has the kind of self-clipping tuners that Dick described on his
"Blackie" DeNeve. We were comparing our guitars at the Joe Val Festival and
he showed them to me. Very cool...and saves your nail clippers, too!
