Wayne is an incredible human being. One of the nicest and most humble people I have ever met. Incredible player and builder.

To the OP's question. I have played Wayne's personal guitar as well as 3-4 new, (built within the last 10 years), Hendersons.
Wayne's personal guitar, which he built 30+ years ago, sounds incredible. The most memorable one was a Euro/African Black Wood that was beyond incredible. If you get a chance play one. That's part of the reason people would wait 10 years to get one.

Shotguns, antique knives, and prewar Martin's, old Gibson's, or just about any vintage guitars, are good bargaining chips....as are homemade pies delivered to the shop weekly!
