Tim and I are looking forward to this. We're mind boggled and excited.

Cotten will receive a few pictures of the process fairly often. He'll be busy for hours as he goes through the PICASA ALBUMS to decide which pictures are worthy to share with you. I'm sure we will see a couple of them posted now and then.

For those of you who would like to see your investment up front and personal, this is a good time to plan a weekend trip to Santa Rosa where the 2011 Healdsburg venue will be in a new location.

If all goes as planned Cotten's guitar will be on display on the McKnight Guitar table there. Although I'm usually in charge of the display table, Cotten and Tim will still need to discuss how this guitar is be presented to the public. I ask Phil to make suggestions, too.

Example:
Maybe I should stuff cotton balls under the strings to identify it as Cotten's guitar which will also protect the fretboard from scratches. While I'm at it, I think I should stuff the box with cotton balls, too.

I'm not a guitar player, but sumthin' tells me that might ruin any majestic sound when being tone tapped.

I mentioned all this during a conversation with JR who must have been groaning while shaking his head and rolling his eyes.
