May your pores fill evenly and effortlessly.

I had a birthday yesterday (55), and second only to the presents my wife gave me, my greatest joy was that I had an absolutely fantastic pumice pore fill last night on an Indian Rosewood back and sides. It all clicked, man. I wish all my pore filling days were like my birthday.

Probable factors:

1. I was relaxed and not rushed
2. I had switched back to FFFF pumice after experimenting with FF (FFFF just feels right)
3. I had put down just the right amount of shellac spit coat on the guitar the day before
4. I was working the light reflection just right
5. I remembered to NOT OVERDUE IT ON THE #$%&* PUMICE!!!

Here's wishing the same for all of you.
