[CoolerKing]

Wish I was coming, had a blast last year! Explorers Club dinner overlaps again.

That was a fun start to my work week! Thanks for posting the video and I am sorry to be missing the action later this month in Texas. But, I will be in Yosemite playing music so I can't whine too much.

Best,
Jayne

Ben, you and Brad are awesome together. Loved the song. Look forward to hearing you both play in person.

Here is a little tease of part of the evenings entertainment Saturday night. Ben is playing a new guitar he just finished (modeled after my Black Lion I might add) and Brad is playing the prototype Nautilus. Enjoy:

Simply wonderful, can’t wait to hang with you folks!

I'm looking at these build threads and BIG(er) plans WAY too much!!! The anticipation is killing me so curious if any of y'all in the Dallas area might want to gather up and scratch this itch a little before the main event? Guitar show&tell&share&noodle for a couple hours? I'm in Frisco. My playing is not worthy of my one handbuilt but I've been at it for decades and know how to play quietly when among better players! I'm also an attentive and appreciative listener. :-) Again for the locals, I ran up to Guitar Sanctuary yesterday and they have a LameHorse in stock I was able to take for a ride; it's truly a piece of art. First solo builder I notice there so...woohoo, they are stepping up their acoustic game!

[Nemoman]

Wish I was closer, canehorn, and could take you up on your offer--sounds like fun and a good lead-in to BIG(er)!

Looking forward to meeting you at the event...

Just a little less than 3 weeks away now ladies and gentleman! Tables and chairs are ordered, food is ordered, whiskey is purchased, apparel is all ordered, guitars are wrapping up on the benches, Kathy is ready...


LET'S GO!!!!!!!

[AZ Cardinal]

Man I am sooo excited! This is going to be such a blast! If there is still room, you should come. The amount of guitar geeking is unbelievable.. I cant wait to take every guitar for a spin, drool over the Humphrey amps, eat amazing BBQ and drink whiskey, and hang with good people! Frog and Toad are amped up to play a set, and Will is going to be awesome!!!!

Can't wait!

[cigarfan]

Yes sir … less than 3 weeks. Man o' man, couldn't be more excited!

[Nemoman]

Whiskey? There's gonna be whiskey? And guitars? And Frog and Toad, And......oh, man--the list goes on and on!

CAN NOT WAIT!

It appears we will have something new to show afterall!
As you can see by the reflections:
1) I'm a bad photographer,
2) They're shiny now!

Beautiful wood, Steve! If these two new guitars are anything like my Osage SJ, people will be astounded. I expect my Bodark is a hair better though...heh heh.

Thanks Steve and Ryan for building these beauties for B.I.G. (er). We will get these to a bunch of players and see what happens!
