- Tell us more about yourself (place a Bio here if you wish)
- well, I'd like to say "head on down to my web site and read more", but fact is, I'm more than a little ashamed in its current condition, having not been really updated since 2001 or so. But! we are on the case, and it shouldn't be too long now! Check-in every couple weeks, and one day soon, you'll see a whole new layout, and all new photos(taken with a high resolution Canon DSLR), captions, sections, and perhaps even a real biography this time.
promise!

Mario Proulx said… - We're beginning to contact those on the list "for the list" at this moment. If you're on the list, contact Jenny to see where you are, if not, write her or myself and we'll add you(no deposit required at this point).
Bull does get a bit of volume from his guitars, doesn't he? He can likely make an unplugged LesPaul scream with that big right arm.

- For sure Doc! We'll have the coffee again, if you can figure out how to climb through the window once more
Marty, I've not met Charmaine yet; should I be worried? We DO need to get together and swap a few tunes, for sure; you bringing a banjo to jam with?

Chris Thiessen said… - Mario! Good buddy! Sorry I'm not going to be at Kamp this year. Will be sitting sadly in a corner, looking at the Zoom H2 I bought for Kamp. Ah, well. Have a great time nevertheless and say howdy to your effervescent bride!
I had thought we might have some time to talk about this guitar I'd like to build, but we'll email when you get back to Canada.

My first Carbon was an Adamas.I currently play a Rainsong Dred.I discovered carbon Guitars 2 years ago in a local Guitar store and purchased one within a month. I played my first RainSong Dred about a year later and bought that one.I watched Scott Nygards reviews on you tube and that kinda got me searching.Anyone else play the fakes?See More

Stephen Switzer replied to Daniel J Thomack's discussion picks"I have settled on the BlueChip CT55. The BlueChip picks play very smooth and fast, with little pick noise. By the way, I use their thumb picks as well- best I've ever used."
