Hi Simon,

I am hoping to do a little local sightseeing with Steve on Saturday morning. So it might be as late as 12.00 when we arrive. My technician will open the shop from 11.00.

... and what a pleasure it was! What a fantastic place to visit.

Trevor is an absolute gent and his shop is a true treasure-trove of top-end guitars and and mando's. And to be able to try them! Whichever Ones! Wonderful. Really Wonderful. I will definitely be going there again. Though it wont be so easy to depart without a Mandocello under my arm next time...

Splendid it was also to meet luthier extraordinaire Steve Kinnaird in actual person as opposed to via web exchange and splendid also to try his outrageously lovely OM. A pleasure indeed.

Thanks to Trevor and Steve!

Simon.

And what a treat meeting you, Simon!
That really is a lovely parlor guitar you brought with you.
You have every right to be proud!
Thanks for making the effort to come over,

Steve

Thanks Steve! And let me know if you ever feel the need to dabble with Archtops... I could get in the queue for an L5 style for delivery in mid 2016. A 50th birthday present for myself. Well why not eh?
