John,

Congratulations. Dang it must be terrible to be so talented! Soon I will be telling my friends, "John Mayes", yea I knew that guy from the luthiers forum, before he got so famous."

So I guess this means I will be ordering your electric guitar building dvd when you film that one!

Jeff

haha.. No plans to do a electric video anytime in the foreseeable future.
I'll be working on the neck one as soon as I get my new drive Dave. No
worries.

I am, however planning a new video that shows how to make a Cigar box
ukulele using pretty basic tools. Should be a fun project, and should only
be one DVD or two at the most sold together. interest?

That sounds kinda cool. I plan on buying all your DVD's some time later this year (have to sell a few guitars first). I think they would be really helpful. What is coming up after necks?

Up after I get through editing necks is the Cigar uke followed by binding,
then neck fitting, and then it is off to finish!
