It's good to have someone join up with that many years under their strap. Feel free as a bird to answer any questions ... especially as it sounds like you must know a whole lot about guitar construction, fixing, setting up etc. Also, we'd love to hear you! If you have any mp3s you'd like to share, we're all ears.
Happy New Year!

Hi Kirk. Thanks for the reply. I am currently living out in the Fraser Valley. I don't consider myself an expert by any stretch when it comes to lutherie. I had alot of help building my guitar from a local luther in New Westminster. I just have some cabinet building skills and took my time. It's not a perfect guitar by any means but it sure sounds sweet. Just a little sidenote Kirk. I played one of Greg Smallwood's classical guitars a couple of weeks ago. Spruce Top, LAMINATED ROSEWOOD back and sides, balsawood bracing and super thin top. I almost dropped it when I played the first note. With out a doubt the most unbelievable classical guitar I've ever played. The projection was mind boggling. So much for lousy plywood guitars!! By the way, 13,000 Canadian. Don C.
