Hi folks! John Datlen here from Datlen Luthiery. I will be presenting my work at the upcoming LaConner Guitar Festival on the weekend of May 10th thru the 12th. I am really excited to be included in this years show. I look forward to meeting new people and checking out all the fabulous guitars that will be there.

Looks great John. I've always like the sound of guitars, OM and smaller, built with that combination of tone woods. Hope you post yo he other guitars you are bringing to the show.
