Like the subject says, what's on your Christmas list, gear-wise or whatever? I'm hoping Santa brings me a Squier Jaguar short scale bass and a Rumble 100 amp so I can jam out with my son in the basement. He's hoping Santa brings him a Ludwig Breakbeats drum set (which I have on good authority is probably a sure thing). —Sean |

I'm hoping for a set of Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound P-J bass pickups to drop into my Fender Deluxe P Bass Special! —Four String Fender for The Delstroyers & The Woodhavens |

Rebuilt pickups and wiring harness for the red Epiphone Casino my wife bought me for my birthday. The stock pickups are like stupid loud for a full hollow body and don’t render the sounds of a vintage Casino AT ALL. Hoping to nail Beatles, Stones, Who, Kinks tones when I get them back from the Canadian builder. — |

I am trying to find a way to buy Staytrem 9.5" radius bridges for my CP Jag and CP JM. But for some reason that has not been divulged, they bloody well don't ship to Canada!!! Odd and frustrating. —Lorne |

A 12 string acoustic electric that I don't need to sell my car to acquire. As such Taylor, Gibson and Martin are not in the future. Bummer as they are incredible guitars and I don't do Santa. |

NOW you're talkin'! At my age I don't need anything; if it's needed I just get it. New under-counter can opener for my Chief of Staff, and a manly toy of some kind for the lone grandson. Having the family stop by occasionally amidst their hectic work/school/college schedules is pretty much Christmas wishes come true. I want pics of that Camaro though...

I've bought multiple staytrem bridges shipped to Canada. Hell, I bought one three weeks ago! They definitely ship to Canada! Word on warning on fitting the bridge to a CP guitar... you might have to install new thimbles. I initially put a mastery bridge and had to change the thimbles then I changed it to a staytrem. — |

Christmas came early; I got a AVRI62 Jaguar. Thinking about getting a spitfire pickguar. I might get a second Quilter Steelaire to leave at my jam space. And a looper pedal. — |

Then something has changed since you last ordered directly from Staytrem UK. When you begin filling out the shipping information, Canada is not on the extensive countries list. I had emailed John at Staytrem about this and over the course of 2 emails he said flat-out that he is sorry but no shipping to Canada. No rationale offered. I can understand dealership agreements such as not being able to purchase certain brands like Fender via Musician's Friend with the shipping to Canada but Staytrem is only a UK-based company with no dealership or distributors elsewhere in the world. Sucks. —Lorne |

Best Christmas wishes to you and your dad, Jeff. I met him when The Surge was your guest at the cookout at your place in July, 2012. My thoughts and prayers will hopefully help to get him back home soon. —Jack The Mariners (1964-68, 1996-2005) |

Thanks to all the surf bands, past and present. And thanks to all the fans who care about and keep surf music alive.
A broken piston ring in cylinder #7 ruined the cylinder wall, hence the new short block. It will be a GM ZZ4, for all the motorheads out there. The first pic is the soon-to-go damaged engine. As usual with an old car, this turned into a bigger project than I anticipated but at least I can do it myself. I'm a better mechanic than a musician!
Which VAMC is he at?
