I just have to share this picture with my OLF friends.



As many of you know, my initial reason for building was to produce legacy guitars for my 3 sons. So then my brothers twisted my arm and coaxed me to build something for them. Now, my nephews are on the list...but not before I make 2 for myself.

So...at Christmas, we all got together for a monster-jam at my sister's house in Erie, PA. It turned out to be the highlight of the holidays with everyone else (including my 90 year-old mother) just relaxing and enjoying the music.

Good looking group of happy guitar players (with the exception of the guy in the middle/right who is kinda funny looking )
I too had a little jam session but only with me and two customers. Still pretty fun.
Happy New Year. P

That's great JJ. I have great memories of playing with my brother and father at every family get-together. What a joy.
