I'm in the process of reading this for my apprenticeship.

Good book very useful!

It is a really odd book, with some very odd ideas
If you really want to make them this is the book you want as a starter

Right now,I'm finishing up The Noonday Demon by Andrew Solomon,and I'm brushing up on Algebra 1,as my 33 year old ass is getting ready to take the Math placement test for my re-entry into college

I agree with both of these. Same reason I can no longer read most of Heinlein's works...basically same characters, basically same plot-line, different locales. Whoopie.

Just finished (for the third time) William Gibson's 'Sprawl' sorta-trilogy; Neuromancer, Count Zero, and Mona Lisa Overdrive.

The Encylcopedia Of Serial Killers

I like to read Samuel Beckett a lot!

This is the current flight home book.

I tried to read The Brothers Karamazov. Could not get into it after like 200-300 pages.

Well stuff like making a long scale bass with a double cut lp style body where the neck is solid ebony AND has a bid knob/growth thing at the end of the peghead so you have the ultimate in neckdivers! Pickup stuff is very interesting, like doing a pickup where each string has it's own coil and he also gets into epoxy potting, how to make molds for you own epoxy pickup covers ect. Thing is this book is not at good first book to me because if you don't have a good basic concept of how to build instruments and pickups you can get very lost... His woodworking stuff is on the skilled hobby side... creative but could really point someone in the wrong direction if they knew nothing... where the pickup side is really advanced and very cool [really along the lines of bartonini style stuff] and gets into getting different sonic curves and stuff like that. but I would still get Guitar Electronics for Musicians and Lollar's book first.

reading is hard lol

Similar, I am realizing that some depends on the english translation,
Honestly it starts pretty slow, but I have a 15 hour flight so it will probably get read regardless.
