Too wierd.
Just Monday I shipped a guitar to a small town in NJ, and today sold a pre-built instrument to the same small town.
Unless these guys know each other and are pulling my leg, it is blowing my mind!

David - I just checked out your web site, and I think that maybe good news travels faster than we can imagine! Your guitars look great, and if your two customers don't know each other, you should hook them up. That's the kind of coincidence that makes for a great story.

I assume you got your money before shipping the guitar? Is there any chance it is a scam?

Still weird! They live 3.5 miles from each other.
Neither knows the other, and so far, I don't have permission to introduce them, but will soon, I think.

Tony, no, bought and paid for...

Thanks for the nice comments on my website and guitars. I love my tone, by the grace of God, I'm hitting my target.

Glad you are not being robbed. I think something like this happened to another member, but it was a scam. The guy was out a several thousand with no recourse.
