**Hand Made Music - Acoustic Guitar Compilation CD**
 
** Now Available! **
Hand Made Music
- The definitive handbuilt acoustic guitar CD -
Over a year ago, producer Steve Reinthal began working on building a very special compilation disc for the Acoustic Guitar Forum. Steve asked several of our luthier sponsors to select a guitar that they felt represented some of their best work, and to pair it with a player most suited to bring forth the true spirit of their instrument. The resulting CD is a treasury of great acoustic music, played on some of the finest examples of contemporary acoustic guitars from: Woolson, Kwasnycia, Kragenbrink, Paragon, Covey, Mustapick, McKnight, Aaron Andrews, Michael Palm, Baden, Hodges, Santa Cruz, Sharp, and Solomon.

Actually this is the fourth CD produced by JR and the folks of Acoustic Guitar Forum.

AGF1 came out a couple years ago...I missed AGF2 & AGF3 - although there are still copies available and I'm getting them along with this disc, HMM.

AGF4 is due out late this month, I believe.

Excellent Work
 
to J.R. and Steve, players and builders: excellent work on the guitars, on the songs, on the recordings and the mixing and the final editing. Thoroughly excellent all the way down the line. Represents some of the best of everything we love about the AGF.

patticake 07-02-2010 03:09 PM

donated a little extra to help support the board.

can't wait to hear the cd - does it list the guitar used as well as the player and song for each track?

Fliss 07-02-2010 03:16 PM

My copy arrived yesterday - thank you very much JR, and thanks to all who contributed to making the CD. I'm sitting here wondering what I can say that will do justice to the amazing playing of the musicians involved, and what a fantastic idea to have a whole CD of beautiful music played on beautiful hand made guitars. Kudos to all of you.

Yes, I think it is designed to sell guitars. And I think it may just work. :)

I liked the Palm GA on track 16.

Broadus 07-02-2010 07:22 PM
