Post subject: | My Mini Concerts at Montreal guitar show with Ken Bonfield |
Here is a couple videos of 2 of the guitars I displayed at the Montreal Guitar show, Ken Bonfield did a great job playing them for me. Ken was a busy guy at the show as he did 6 or 7 other mini concerts over the 3 days. These were taken with my Sony camera so not the greatest quality. There are a total of 4 videos from the show posted on my youtube, but I will only post the link to the 1st one on each guitar. One of the greatest thrills of building is listening to real good pickers playing your instruments. Black limba/Sitka 12 fret cutaway Bubinga/Lutz small jumbo Fred |

One of the great things about Ken is his attitude toward the mini-concerts: he's not there to show off his licks, but to showcase your guitars. He really tries to play something that will sound good on the instrument, and to point out the advantages. I particularly liked the way the harmonics rang out on 'Little Martha'. Sweet guitars. |

I was aware of his music so it was an easy choice to get him for the mini concerts. If I did not have guitars on display I would have spent a lot of time at the concerts and as it was I caught a few while the wife was watching my table. |

Nice guitars! I especially like the narrow waist, as I'm one of those men of a certain age. Please build more! |
