I don't have any doubt about the Traugott, Kostal, Matsuda, Baranik, Wingert... amazing guitars but I'm still missing other builders in the pictures you posted. What about Mario Beauregard, Ken Parker, linda Manzer and mainly Erving Somogyi, are they still building the best guitars in the world.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get to everyone. I also took most of these photos before the show started, and some builders did not have their guitars on display at that time. One thing I learned from previous shows, if you spend time on too many builders, you will get overloaded and "tone deaf."

A belated thank you for posting the terrific photos from Healdsburg 2013. It was my first show. Suffice to say, it could have gone on for 10 more days and hence, I will be back in 2015 and every two years as long as I am able! So many wonderful people, the craftsman, musicians and attendees...............and let's not forget the guitars. Bruce

Thank you so much for your great report! I always say to myself- next time I must go to Healdsburg, but it is not exactly round the corner from here...
Cosmetically my favorites have to be, in no particular order, Michael Bashkin's 00-12 fret, Kathy Wingert's parlor (cedar top?), and Bill Tippin's...all of them! Great works of art best regards Massimo |

I thought that Boar's head was hilarious. A total non sequitor. Perhaps as a yin to the guitar's yang |

In addition, Juston, wanted to say thanks for the photos of the Wingert. I am insanely jealous that you got to see those guitars in person. My Wingert is supposedly up on deck to be finished in April. I also like the photo of her you snuck in by the Ken Franklin booth!
Until then I may have to check myself in to Bellvue for "stress and anxiety relating to GAS withdrawal..." You guys can come visit if you bring beer and guitars |
