User:Nochops

I'm in southern California, USA. Most folks know me as Jim...or "Silverface", my handle just about everywhere but here and Yahoo (where it was taken!)

My background is primarily in two areas - 1) paints, coatings, waterproofing and related products (including application and inspection systems - I've been in the paint/waterproofing industry in some sort fo technical capacity for 3 decades) and musical instruments - guitar, bass (electric and upright), mandolin, ukelele, pedal steel, dobro and lap steel. I both perform, repair (mostly electronics - tube amps and guitars - and refinishing) and do a limited amount of building.  My user name comes from my signature on many forums - "No Chops but Great Tone".
