- Retired educator- coach, teacher, administrator. Recovering banjo player. Went to Winfield in '94 and got hooked on flatpicking and guitars in general. Began building guitars in '95 as a strategy to begin learning how to repair. Built a shop at my house. Opened a Radio Shack franchise/cell phone/music store in '99. Have owned, sold and repaired lots of nice guitars. The Walnut Valley Festival is the highlight of my year. Pick with a camp(One Fret Away) composed of doctors, lawyers, engineers, and an aging football coach (me). I am a charter subscriber to Flatpicking Guitar Magazine and have every issue and CD. Have 3 daughters, a son and 9 grandchildren, all within striking distance.

I've never had a gauge that I've used for any of my guitars, but what I have done which only costs a few dollars is to get a travel soap box and a sponge to use as a small humidifier that I keep in my case.
It's works really well and fits perfectly…
Really nice. Great to see someone slowing down and being tasty.
I have to admit I do like D'addarios, once I get my callouses back I may move up to ej17's

I remember signing that guitar. It's cool some of those other names that share that with mine. How are things going down in your area? I remember playing the Ok Traditional Music function, I had a nice time. Good to hear from you, maybe see you down the road again sometime.
