A Couple of Followups
Well, Mr. White is back - that's the African "Record Distributor" I wrote about a couple of days ago (Musicians Beware!).
Before I told him no MOs for more than the purchase amount, he was bugging me hourly for an answer... after I told him, he just disappeared. I got the feeling that using the over-priced international MO was more important to him than buying the CDs.
Well, this morning, he's back, saying he could send a cheque. I said "OK, send a check for $1184. (The deal on the table now is 150 CDs for $1184 - it turns out that I don't have 190 in stock.) Waiting to see what he says... I'm expecting him to come back and say, "oh, no, the cheque has to be for $5000." What do you suppose his reason for that will be? lol
On a happier note, I just put new strings on the 7 string cigar box vihuela that I fretted over the weekend... it sounds great, plays great... just need to get the pickup working right and it should knock'em out at the upcoming show/CD Release.
While I was at the music store, I also picked up new strings for my 6 string fretless cigar box guitar, a new glass slide, and a used set of "classical" guitar tuners (they're really old-style steel string tuners that look like classical tuners) to put on a future CBG - or maybe 2 CBGs.

Well, it's been all day and not a peep from Mr. White. Maybe he just decided it was a lost cause when I said I wanted a check for the exact amount, lol.
