RE: New shelf - 2/4/2008 1:00:48 AM    L C   Posts: 1483 Joined: 3/17/2007 From: Ohio Status: offline Hello Tigue, there is a fellow here locally who just opened up shop here in Sardinia making guitars, and a partner that makes guitar cases for them. I stopped in to talk to him a couple of weeks ago while he was getting his shop set up and getting ready to go. Seemed like a nice fellow.  According to him, he has made guitars for players in Nashville, whether or not that is true I can't say. He invited me to stop in and chat when I can, and I am anxious to go up and see him at work. I love guitar, have an old Aims I pick around on. Regretfully, I can pick my nose better than I can the guitar, but I get much enjoyment from playing the guitar. Of course I only play it when no one is around to keep from getting laughed out of town ! As for binges, been there and done that as well ! It has been many years ago since I did that sort of thing though.................... < Message edited by L C -- 2/4/2008 1:01:31 AM > (in reply to tigue710) Post #: 14
