Steve,
this one is 1 of 7 but only one of the series that will go to the show.
I have 2 more to show currently being sprayed. A SJ in Madrose and another Zion in BRW.

How about you?


Hi Peter, it turns out we may be taking more than first planned.
My initial thought was to take a representative of each model we make. That would be an SJ, an OM, a fingerstyle and a small Larivee-ish guitar (our CS). Well, our dealer wants to send a guitar to the show, also a friend plans on coming and bringing his 7/8-12 string, and we have the Tiger Myrtle SJ out on the west coast right now. If it ends up staying till H'burg, then we'll have 7. I think I counted that right. That's gonna kill us at shipping time.
But maybe we won't have to ship back that many? [:Y:]

See you soon,

Steve

OK Peter, now you've done it! You went and showed the front and my jaw dropped so low admiring it's beauty that I just about drooled on my shirt. :lol: Absolutely stunning as is all the work your hands have been gifted to create. [clap] Maybe you can get a sound clip of this one sometime in the hands of it's new owner? :D

For me as a beginner, this guitar is simply inspiring. It inspires me to bring my building to the next level(s). The fit and finish looks superb, the sunburst on the top is one of the most beautiful I've seen (I generally don't like them too much) and the overall appearance is very elegant.

I wish I could be at Healdsburg and play this beauty (and all the other fine guitars there). I can only begin to imagine how inspiring a guitar festival must be...

I don't think I could have said it any better! Thanks for supplying the words that I couldn't put together. :D
