It gives me great pleasure to formally announce the OLF's very first Community Moderator!

Please join us in welcoming our trusted friend and fantastic guitar maker HESH as the first ever
Community Moderator! [clap]

We have talked a lot about this over the last year and Hesh's name keeps floating to the top as THE
guy for the task!

Thanks HESH! We appreciate your willingness to help and your dedication to our community for which you have been
so instrumental in building!

Very cool, good decision, Lance.

But I hope he wasn't taking notes this past year.......

Really, congratulations, Hesh! [clap] [clap]

That's great news !!! Congratulations Hesh [clap] You have been a valuable resource to our community and always have a word of support for all of us struggling to improve our building skills. We have shared both frustration and success and hopefully it will continue with much more of the latter.

Best Regards Amigo,

Moderator? I thought we agreed that Hesh was going to be our Mascot!

Anyway, good idea, he has already been doing the job for some time now.

Moderator? So the guy builds beautiful guitars. So what. So he has like 20,000 posts and over a million thumbs-ups. So what. So he has posted a half million tutorials helping others. Just because he does that he gets to be moderator. ;) I tell you, the whole world has gone to hell in a handbasket since David Lee Roth left Van Halen.

Darrin :D

Kudos, Hesh. Now remember: much like pipe bending, it's not safe to moderate in your underpants.

Hesh, great choice, always has been a moderator in the making, now it's official.
I still refuse to clean my workshop. Most people on this forum get injuries using
their power tools. I get injured walking into my shop. OK, maybe I better
do something about it.
Congrats Hesh!

Best
Bruce

Guys just remember not to annoy Hesh to much 'cause if you do the Heshtone Faeries get annoyed and then even if you are using Waverly's your guit-fiddles will not hold tune!!!!

Once again congrats Hesh, definitely good mojo for the community! duh

Good choice Lance, I can't think of anyone who has given as much to the OLF especially in terms of building good will and making people feel welcome and comfortable to participate. You can't add better value to the community than that.

Cheers

Kim
