Custom and boutique luthier extraordinaire. He may have been "unsung" in the common world, but was definitely one of those people who could show up backstage at pretty much any elite show and see someone he knew within the first 50 feet inside. His work and legacy will sing on for many years to come.

Well the daughter has been running the company it said so no big change we hope.
I always thought that the best Gibson was a Hamer, or now Collings
The best Fender was one you made yourself from Warmoth parts
