You have a look of almost unbearable sorrow, yet you keeping a stoic look in your eye probably for your daughters sake .
She is innocent, but you can see behind her beautiful smile a lot of pain . God bless you man.

What other stuff would you love to play besides guitar?
- I would love to be able to play the piano, but never had the time or patience to learn it. But I might still get started some day.
Edit: Thought of another instrument I would like to be able to play: a Chapman Stick. I saw Tony Levin a couple of times and was blown away.Last edited by Arkitkt; 02-13-2015, 09:41 AM.

Re: The Well CXXIII: Arkitkt - Hard Hat Area
What do you think you do really well in life, as opposed to just competently?
- I'm more of a Jack-of-all-Trades, Master of none kinda guy. If I had to pick one thing I'm really good at, it would probably be the computer part of my job (AutoCAD and Revit).
Oh, and I'm full of useless information, as my family would say. I have never lost a game of Trivial Pursuit.
Where do you want to go next?
- I'm actually quite happy with where I'm at. I dream of going back to Germany some day, thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail and building another guitar (That's probably going to happen in reverse order).
Which person, living or dead, do you have the most admiration for?
- My dad, who started out dirt poor and without a father (died on the eastern front in '44) and through hard work and sheer determination managed to give a great home and childhood to 5 kids, and
- My daughter, who showed me how graceful you can be even when you know that things are coming to an early end.
Hello, hello, hello, is there anybody in there?
Love that song.

Is your Strat body bound?
What pickups are mounted in it?
The body in that picture was not bound. I have since switched it out to a blueburst body from StewMac. In the old, natural one the Bridge mounting studs were in the wrong place and I couldn't intonate it properly. I tried drilling them out and installing new ones, but the wood in that area was already pretty chewed up from a previous owners' failed attempts.
I have a JB, SSL-2 and a Jazz in it. The Bridge is an X-Bridge with Piezos The whole mess is controlled by a custom switcheroo with individual mini-switches instead of the usual 5-way. I think it was ArtieToo who helped with that when I first joined the Forum in 2000 or 2001.

Re: The Well CXXIII: Arkitkt - Hard Hat Area
• What's the farthest place you've been from where you are now?
Probably Hawaii. My In-Laws used to live there and we visited them a few times. Wouldn't want to live there, but it's a place to visit
• Would you rather be funny or smart?
I'm German, so funny is obviously out of the question. Smart it is.
• What's the most embarrassing or weirdest CD/album in your music collection?
Nothing really embarrassing. If I like it , I like it. The weirdest ones are probably a bunch of albums from obscure Hungarian bands from the 80's that I bought when we spent our family vacations there. I really need to dig those up.
• Do you have any nicknames?
When I was a kid, my friends called me "Patti", much to my embarrassment. Nowadays, I'm either "Dad" or "the old guy"
