Tim mentioned this to me. Did you have the same initial reaction to it that I did? I had the advantage of being able to play all of them back to back.

Unfortunately, I am entering year 2 of a 3 year guitar and big ticket music purchasing moratorium. If not, that one would have come home with me.
Tim mentioned that, too. I don't know whether to thank you or blame you.

The first one I bought was sorta like that, too. Tim McGraw's guitar player had played that one, and loved it, but for some reason wanted Tim to make him one "just like it" . . even had the wood selected (I saw that wood set aside in the wood room). But apparently never followed through with it. I consider myself very lucky to have that one.

You are clearly in the lead in McKnight ownership.
I think it's still under 5% of Tim's total guitar production. I always joke that if I wind up with 10% of his total production I should try a hostile takeover.

Yep... I liked it from the first note. I got to play all of the loft guitars in about an hour with Bruce (Cafeguy). We had the place to ourselves. Only this one and one other did I pick up more than once. And, I don't even remember what the other one was. Yours I remember well.


Tim mentioned that, too. I don't know whether to thank you or blame you.

HA!! I think thanks are in order. I like sharp cutaways, even on Dreads. This one had it all - looks, playability and tone. You got the pick of the litter.

Well old friend if you need space on the wall I can help you out with that all you need to do is have one couriered to me ( I'll pay of course ) and I will build a complete cabin for it to control heat and mositure and will make sure that it never falls asleep.
I would gladly do that for an old friend.
