<DIV>Hi, Shawn:</DIV>
<DIV> Years ago, he advertised a wooden ball that would fit on the end of a standard (baton type) tuning hammer. I bought one. Worked well until I lost it. Haven't heard about his new hammers until you posted it here. Looks nice, pricey (aren't they all?). He's been around for a long time. Doubt I'll be buying one soon, but it looks like it would work fine. </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Shouldn't that be "Tuning Hammer"? Sorry... I just wondered about the hammer offered by this fellow. I don't recall anyone bringing up his name or lever when we have discussed carbon fiber in the past. </FONT></DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></body></html>
