Re: RIP Pressley Guitar
Rest in Peace Pressley I got to know Pressley when I was in my mid-20's thanks to my friendship with Bob White and Paul Uhler. I stopped to visit him in Abilene on a drive back to Dallas and we got to be fast friends. Not sure if he is on here but some of his friends, particularly Jerry Guyer, could...

Tenyo LePaul Wallet (2013 Version)
These were available in Japan in limited quantities. Very nicely made by expert Japanese craftsman. The leather is very buttery and the stitching is great. It uses a slightly smaller than standard size envelope. You can read more about it here: http://tenyo-magic.blogspot.com/2013/07/tenyo-new-le-pa...

FSH 10 Inch Owen Rings Like New
I bought these about 18-24 months ago and thought that I would use them pretty regularly. I have practiced with them twice and after prodding from my wife to pare back my collection I'd like to start with these. They are absolutely gorgeous rings that rings like a bell.

Re: Bob White - A remembrance
Bob was a naturally talented artist, he was great at sketching and had a knack for naturally knowing proportions and getting the details right. He was largely self taught. He obtained several books of drawings and designs (think Dover book series) and he would practice....all the time. He would cut ...

What a year it has been –it seems like it has been ages since good friend Bob White passed away. I talked to Bob virtually every day, most times twice a day, for nearly thirteen years. I've been thinking about Bob quite a bit the last few days and thought I would post a remembrance and a few anecdot...

Not sure if he mentions it on the DVD, but Bob would go to the grocery and open a carton of medium sized eggs. He would pick out the smallest ones and put them in a carton. He would then blow these out as you mention with a bulb syringe. Bob loved to pack small. Even his school assembly program coul...
