Thanks Steve, that came out spectacularly. I would like to sound smart, but how could we go wrong with a set of BRW like that and Italian spruce!!!! A perfect sized guitar, large enough to fill the room with sound and small enough to cuddle it on a couch and doodle.

Please, someone do me a favor and call Steve and or Ryan and take this guitar home. It deserves it, they deserve it, and to continue a theme, out country deserves it!!!!!!!!

Thank you again Kinnaird guitars of Nacogdoches Texas for letting me see a dream guitar come to fruition.

Hey Tom! Late to the thread here, but I'm sorry to hear about you having to cancel the B.I.G. event. I fully understand how much effort you put into this event, so I can only imagine how devastating it must've been to cancel. I admire you for making this tough decision, though, for I'm sure it was a tough one to make. If by chance you decide to throw together another one, you can certainly count us in! In the meantime, please stay safe.........

FYI, Fretboard Journal is hosting an online showcase #FJFest to promote luthiers and artists that have been hurt by festival cancellations. Just takes an email and photo/ video to list your show guitars.

Hey Chris, no--this one came from Rudolph Bachmann. I got to show the Rivolta tops to Matt J. yesterday, and I think he was a little green with envy.

Thanks all,

Steve

Sitting here Easter morning thinking back on the recent months and remembering how our lives have changed. We have lost many memories due to the virus but of the events cancelled, one stands out for me as most missed. I am very much looking forward to when we can gather for the next B.I.G.

Be safe everyone and Happy Easter!
