GYPSY SUZIE'S TALKING BOARD WAS NAMED FOR MY MAMA, A DEVOUT CATHOLIC, SO FROM THE HATCHING OF THIS IDEA I WAS ALREADY SPINNING SILVER JUST TO GET HER PERMISSION TO NAME IT AFTER HER.  OUR GYPSY WAS THE MOST PROBLEMATIC OF ALL THE HABLA MUERTO BOARDS, EVERY INCH OF THIS BOARD WAS EARNED.  FROM THE ORIGINAL REFERENCE PHOTOGRAPH TO THE FINAL LAQUER SEAL EVERY SINGLE STEP OF GYPSY SUE WAS A NIGHTMARE, INCLUDING NO LESS THAN ONE HUNDRED VERSIONS OF THE LADY BUT, AFTER ALL OF THE PROBLEMS AND INTERESTING ISSUES, GETTING THIS BOARD THROUGH PRODUCTION HAS BECOME THE RICHEST REWARD, AND GYSPY SUE HAS A MESSAGE FOR YOU...
