Wow. That does sound truly amazing. As you said in your video, it sounds like a much larger guitar. Your money has to get you something when you’re buying at that level I guess.

Good for you. I’m very happy for you. I enjoyed your video.

Enjoy in good health.

Great show, thanks. Took me back to the joy of unboxing of my most recent NGD. And, yes, you are definitely worthy.

Wonderful guitar - enjoy.

Brian, I immediately recognized you from the Wildwood demos you have done. Congratulations on your new guitar-- it was fun watching you enjoy the moment. Hoping you will post follow-up videos in the future.

Excuse me while I wipe off the drool from my face. I am so jealous. Five more years until I retire and it will be my time to unbox a Froggy. Congratulations!
