This is was a Classic BCA LP Wallet ordered by Derek for his lady. Derek also sent in the vinyl for production which is very cool for us. I must say I really enjoyed figuring out the best cuts for these LP's. The Queens Of The Stone Age LP has some great album art which always makes for a great looking BCA wallet. We probably spun the album 10 times on our shop Technics 1200 table before destroying for some fine pocket art. Thanks Derek.

A Beautiful Bar of Chocolate : Guitar Fret Belt Buckle
This was a custom made buckle for the 2011 NAMM show. It features the black binding and colorful abalone side dot inlays. The buckle is ebony wood with Mother-of-Pearl trapezoid inlays. Everything is handcrafted including the leather belts and cast buckle backs. All buckles are clear coated and gloss polished. YUM! When I work with ebony it always remind me of chocolate. I am addicted to chocolate. Ebony ironically smells similar to chocolate when its sanded but unfortunatley the taste is just not there and the texture just does not compare to a Hersey's Bar. Now I know there is plenty of high end chocolate out there but Herseys is my favorite. If you are ever in Pennsylvania; check out the Hersey Factory.

Led Zeppelin Houses of the Holy LP Vinyl Record Wallet : BCA
I was a total Zepp Head in my teens, in fact I started playing guitar because I wanted to learn some of Jimmy's riffs. Zeppein is an incredible multi-dimensional band. If you are dazed and confused with communication breakdown, there is always Zeppelin's debut which has been a continual top seller at BCA. If you are over the hills and far away and dancing days are upon you; Zeppelins 5th studio album is the wallet of choice.
For some reason or another I never got around to making a Houses of the Holy wallet until this custom order came in; I am glad I did because it has exceeded my expectation and looks great. In the first days of making the Record Wallets I hand-crafted a Zeppelin II gift wallet for a fellow who was suffering from the AIDS virus. He was a friend of my girls and his sickness was terminal. I found out later that after he passed he had loved the wallet and it was buried with him. RIP my friend and may you have a safe journey to the other-side.
