I just sold my second guitar in a month at the local music instrument store!

I have already re-invested all my profit at Allied! Got a sweet set of maple and some Amazon rosewood.

Profit!? You made a profit? Ha, kidding. Well done, it's a good feeling to have someone ratify your hard work by parting with their hard earned money for it.

Profit may have been a bit optimistic!

I meant that the dollar value of the sale price, less commission, exceeded the dollar value of the cost of materials for that particular instrument. In other words everything extra that I had at that particular moment now belongs to the Taggerts.

Thanks everyone.

Mike, I do not know about the flamenco yet. This client wants to visit the shop etc. and he lives in Billings so he can only come on the weekends. There was heavy weather last weekend and he is off somewhere this weekend so I am still waiting. He needs to hurry up because I have to get more work down to Music Villa. Once I start a new build he will have to wait until I finish before I start his.

Don't forget tooling costs.
