Default Doerr Guitars video on FB

Hi Folks,
Well, some of you may know that I'm a little on the shy side about doing a lot of sharing. I almost never post in "Show and Tell" and just let folks find me on Soundcloud as they will and just leave it at that.
But, this past week was an especially nice one as Tom Doerr called to say that he had been practicing with his phone for posting a video and wondered if I'd be o.k. with his sharing a video of pics of my Legacy build along with one of my songs which he liked ,Autumn's Soul, on that Legacy guitar .
"Of course", I said! And so this week on Tom's Facebook page you can see the results of Tom's work on his site. I'm honored that he would do this!
Wanted to share with the hope that it brings more good folks to Tom as fans or clients....or both! Tom is an AGF sponsor, so you can click on his web site on the list right here on AGF. Thanks again, Tom!
All the best,
Fred

Fred:

An awesome video and great playing. I spent an hour or so today with my Doerr and can't say enough nice things. Tom is a great builder (and a great guy). Glad to see someone else enjoying their Doerr as much as I enjoy mine!

Very well done, Fred! Kudos to both you & Tom! Definitely a combined artist's work! Made by one, for the other, and the end result .....

Well thanks Fred I appreciate the kind words but you are being very humble about saying "the credit is all to Tom". You play VERY well and have great skills composing your songs. I couldn't have done the picture video without your beautiful recordings. I enjoy it every time you send a recording my way. Fred has many great tunes on soundcloud if you haven't checked them out I recommend you do so. Oh yeah and Fred's also a great guy

Beautiful playing on a gorgeous guitar. Is this an original of yours? Either way, it's a very nice piece.

I really dig the guitar's tone as well. So clear and complex at once.

I only wish the mix was be a bit louder...

Well done, Fred!
