Thanks guys.

The guy who commissioned the D28 style guitar from me just came over to take delivery. It was fun. He really did seem to like it.

Great John. Isn't it a thrill to see how happy our owners are with their new guitars. The smiles are infectious. I just took another commission this week and have another meeting setup for when I get back from vacation. I'm at 7 so far this year. Crazy.

Tim,

It was fun to deliver it and have the guy really like it. It sure is nerve racking to have a commission, but it did force me to up my quality bar. Especially with regard to the setup.

John, Thanks you.
