Howdy new Collings Forum. In a different life and time, I was an early member of Ed's Collings forum. I mostly disappeared because life kept getting in the way. I vanished online for a few years when I had a major hearing loss from Meniere's disease. My hearing took my sanity with it, and I remained a recluse for several years, not doing much of anything with music, or anything for that matter. I'm somewhat better now, but my hearing still sucks.
I was Rockerbob on the original Collings forum.

Heya Keith -- it's great to see you back again. Sorry to hear about the hearing issue. Will it continue to improve over time?

Hi Keith,
Welcome back! I too suffer from severe Meniere's Disease! At times completely debilitating! Really messes with Guitar Tone for sure. Anyway, welcome back and hope you are coping with your hearing at the present moment. Mine is 24/7/365!
Best,
Michael
PS...did you ever find anything that helps with the Meniere's Disease?

I take 3 diuretics twice a day. Then for the brain damage hearing lost caused I take another 4 "sanity" pills. And I still record. I wear hearing aids that I absolutely require, but I hate them with a passion.
