Just curious, a builder named Jason Harshbarger built in the Klein style and actually collaborated with Klein and Kaufman on guitar sold on the Dream Guitar site. He was initially an accomplished mandolin maker and I managed to acquire one of his mandolins, and on the basis of the excellence of that instrument bought a used Orenda, an guitar he called his most innovative and one that has a lot of features in common with the guitar pictured here. His website has been dormant for some time and I just wondered if anyone knows what he's up to. I love the guitar, especially for playing Piedmont blues and I'e be very interested to know what he's doing now.
