The guy who is building my guitars has just won a guitar-of-the-month competition on a guitar site called Project Guitar.com. The guitar he won with is in some of my pics, but here's a look at how good his work is right here:

I must say that is quite a pretty guitar. I wish I knew how to play, and had one as shnazzy as that. Mr. Green Later!

Hey Sinner, I have a cousin who has played guitar for many years, and he's quite passionate about it (as many are.)

I was just wondering, if I were ever to ask you in the future, could you get me the "hook-up" so to say, with this guy? See, someday I'd like to get a unique, and also well-designed, guitar for my cousin, as some kind of gift. -Exactly what this guy seems to excel in, designing. I'm not asking for a freebie, or even a discount, 'cause with the talent this guy has, that just wouldn't be right. I'm just wondering if you could get me some direct communication with him, if I were to do this for my cuz'. When I come up with the cash, I'd be willing to pay a good amount. Let me know, man. Later!

Hey Sinner, I just thought of something you could do. If you wanted to, and haven't already considered it, you should think about posting that banner in the Off-site Advertisement Forum. I bet your guitar creator would appreciate it, at least, a little bit. It's just an idea though. Very Happy Later, man!

Hey RiCterMan, just click on the link Happysinner left and it brings you right to the home page of the guitar maker, his name is Perry, I've already emailed him inquiring about the guitars, they're all custom made and the price is reasonable.

Peace,
Erick . . .

LoL. I learned that soon after I left the reply.

Anyhow, they're reasonably priced? -Very nice... Of course' right now, even reasonable is too much, 'cause all that's in my pockets are pieces-a-lint. But I'm thinkin' sometime next year when my cuz' turns 21. Even if the prices rise (-you'd think that they will), I'll be able and willing to spend quite a bit. Take it easy, Erick. Very Happy Later!

Thanks for all the feedback guys!
Sorry I haven't checked in - been flat out like a lizard drinking the last day or so.

I believe everyone knows how to contact Perry Ormsby now - he sends his thanks for the good vibes, by the way. Smile

My signature series guitars will be finished in the next few weeks, so we'll be madly running around organizing photo shoots and poster/brochure layouts. Needless to say, I'll be crowing like a rooster on steroids when they get here!

You'll all be the first to get a peek, too... Wink

The $Aus/US exchange rate is way in favour of our American friends, and Perry has orders 'til April 2006, so the timing may work for you, Ricterman! Drop him a line. Smile

I may do so, when I am able to build up some cash. Very Happy Later!

The locking nuts are going on today, and I will hopefully be having a play of the unfinished guitars tomorrow before giving the OK on the dimensions. Then it's a couple of coats of laquer, and they're mine! Very Happy
