That is so cool--Carl Miner is an amazing player. Can't wait to see all the performers!
Edit: Carl was 2nd place in the National Flat Pick Guitar Championship in 1998 and 2007 and took first place in 1999!

B.I.G. III! New Braunfels, Tx Sept. 2nd-4th Feat. Carl Miner, Thomas Leeb, F&T
Steve, Mike and Dennis…I appreciate the approval of my first two selections for B.I.G. …..and Tom, what a stellar lineup you’ve assembled!!! I’m getting really excited.
Here’s the third guitar I’ll be bringing to the show. It’s my “Luna 000” model. I’ve chosen a beautiful set of Cocobolo and paired it with a Tunnel-14 Redwood soundboard. I can’t believe the sound that she’s already producing: IMG_5888.jpg IMG_5887.jpg IMG_5886.jpg

That's an awesome combination, Joel.
All of your BIG III guitars look super stellar!

Dan, Thank you for Posting That
This black top Lame Horse guitar that Carl Miner is demoing at TNAG, will soon be on its way to its new home in England, where it will be joining 2 or 3 other Lame Horse guitars with that same owner. I had never met Carl Miner before delivering this guitar to TNAG. He just happened to be there that day when Jeremy and I brought them a couple of instruments. However, he tried the guitar, and seemed to like it. I was pretty sure he liked it when he asked me if we had any more like that one.

Here is the next little tease for a guitar heading to B.I.G. from Ben Wilborn. His words:
Nautilus sized set of Brazilian which I will couple with a Carpathian spruce top and Macassar ebony binding. I don’t get to build many guitars on spec these days ( not complaining!) but it’s fun to build whatever suits me. I love the dark staining that shows throughout this set. Wilborn big guitar.jpg

BTW, Ben showed me this set along with his mind blowing BRZ stash. He also has some amazing Mad Rose, and Coco sets that were equally impressive. I felt a bit intoxicated after my visit, and I chose a wonderful BRZ set. After coming to my senses, it was too late, Ben had already sent me the build sheet using permanent ink. I guess I'm stuck with my decision. |
