I’m flying so bringing my flight proof Rainsong. It looks industrial compared to the beauties you folks are bringing. 3 weeks and counting!

I've been playing Dennis Lair's guitar for several days, and the set-up is getting very close to right. Here are a few pictures.
Actual bridal joint!!! |

Lame Horse Saddle Pal Coming to BIG 2020
The Lame Horse Crew is really looking forward to BIG 2020. We think Tom may have come up with the perfect environment for guitar builders and guitar players to meet up in a relaxed, fun fashion. What a great idea - springtime in the beautiful Texas hill country with plenty of time to get to know each other, and to get to know the instruments. What fun! Here are some photos of the Saddle Pal we are bringing. Western red cedar top, waterfall bubinga back and sides, 25.5" scale, 12 frets to the body, VS custom tuners, Ameritage case, of course (like all Lame Horse Instruments) adjustable playing action and Rea access panel. Over the few days, we will post some more photos of other things we are bringing along.

We are in the golden age of custom guitars!
Love the saddle Pal Chris!

Hey Chris. Had my bridge crack and break in two on my Gitjo. Any chance you could bring a replacement to B.I.G.? I can send you a pic if you want.
Actually it's not the bridge. It's the piece the strings are anchored in. (pictured is not my Gitjo)

I didn't know you had a Lame Horse gitjo, Dennis! I almost bought a five string banjo of theirs a few years ago just because it was so pretty, but I don't play banjo and don't really want to. If it had been a gitjo . . .
Chris, that saddle pal is phenomenal - I can't wait to play it! I hope you put some of these pics on my FB album. It looks like you beat most of the other luthiers to the punch in getting finished before the event (except for Bruce - he's had one done for months now!).
