Let me first say that I can hardly believe I remembered my password to this site...I just want to add that I was thrilled to be asked to be a part of this. I feel really lucky that I met Todd, he's easily one of the most generous and genuine people I've gotten to know. He really is deserving of something like this. Getting to collaborate w Chris & Filippo was a treat too, I especially enjoyed being sneaky :) I think it's safe to say we all got a lot out of it. And the guitar sounded great the other night.

I haven't been on this site too long, but that's gotta be the best thread I've ever read (maybe on any forum).

Kudos to all involved.......and hysterical watching Todd route the saddle slot for his own guitar.

Thanks for sharing Guys and thanks to Todd for all his contributions to the forum and local builders.

It's a feather in your cap if you can inspire people to that affect...and a feather each to those inspired.

Feathers abound!

Well done, gents.

I was away when this tread came out. WOW! Good on the three of you. If that doesn't give you a warm, fuzzy feeling..........

Well deserving to the guy who has happily shared his wealth of knowledge. Sorry, no guitar but a big thanks.

Cheers,
Danny
