Default Final notice

It only seem fair to mention that today is the last day to order a guitar from me, should you have been considering it. I could change my mind, but I don't expect to. I expect to continue building, and the results will still be available to you on my inventory page.

Here is #321 with all its binding on:

Default Respect

..and Happy Birthday �� ..is all I can say.
We never interacted or met, but I have massive respect for what you still do and the fact you do it on your terms.
And - what a cool number it is to stop with.. 321- done.
I wish you many more pieces of art - guitars according to you and noone else.
Enjoy - and thanks for the many wonderful builds you shared with us !
Respect !
.. and all the best !

I too like the numerology here! Haha

Happy Birthday and may your herds continue to increase, just how YOU feel!

All the best from me too, and MANY here, no doubt.

Bruce managed to blow his candle out, so hopefully his wish comes true - alongside an old friend and another great luthier, Howard Klepper.

75 plus a day is also something to celebrate, and I will. Thank you for the acknowledgments.

Howard is doing fine too, by the way, and may even build a guitar or two again one day.

After a month of back burner curing, I am assembling #319, the BRW/Adi Mini-D I was showing a month or 2 ago. I hope to string it later today, and here are yesterday's pictures:
