Nice Grant. Thanks for sharing. I really like Andy's playing too.
However to highlight what this wood went through, you need someone playing James Taylor "Fire and Rain" ... or Johnny Cash "Burning Ring of Fire" ... Oh, the 'ring' of fire

Well, after the first half minute, he said it was an "amazing guitar". After the first half hour he was talking about the really good low end, the bell-like clarity across all of the notes, and the forever sustainDennis Leahy wrote:It's obvious that Andy likes her just fine, but did he mention any attribute specifically?
And he just kept playing. Ron was here, but he only got to play it when Andy went to the bathroom
Andy left Saturday for Winnipeg. He has a 2 week tour across Saskatchewan and western Manitoba, and he will re-trace his route and end up back here. BTW, he tours with my Monkeypod Dread and a few other instruments. This is now his main guitar, replacing his old Gibson jumbo which I repaired last year. He likes that one a lot, too

Well, had my annual art show in Longville this past weekend, and this guitar now has a new home. Sold it to a teen from Edina
He tried them all and liked this one best...guess I gotta build another one.

Way to go Grant,
Yep it's hard to keep them all,
Its good to see them go to a good home.
