    Awesome. Glad to see the neck reunited with the '59, and hear your impressions of the 6105 frets. I'm going to be re-fretting my maple Strat neck, and considering going with either medium jumbos, or 6105 frets, just to get some more room to work, basically. The original frets on it have been leveled and crowned once, and I don't think there is enough left to do another, without leaving the frets lower than I like.

    I’ve got to be able to get close to your Vintage tone, I have too. Lol
    Oh! And you know what would be AWESOME, if you could state before or after your wonderful awesome noodling in your videos is what amp you’re using, the settings on the amp, and if you’re using any pedals you used, for that noodling session.

You think SRV didn't play 100 licks out of the Hendrix/Albert King/Buddy Guy playbook every show? And I'm not saying that in a negative way. Every guitarist is going to have similarities to their influences. Take your advice somewhere where you actually know what you're talking about.

    It never ceases to amaze me how many great guitar players don't use their pinky. I had to wear a splint on my left had pinky for 12 weeks last summer (ripped my extensor tendon off the end joint) and it took another couple of months after that before I could use it to play. It was HORRIBLE. I eventually found ways to compensate for most things but many things were much harder. It was also mentally exhausting - I had to concentrate all the time to combat motor memory habits that were as natural as breathing to me.
