As many of you know Kevin Gallagher has suffered a very difficult shoulder injury and that has prevented him from working and it will be quite some time before he gets back into the shop.

Peter Marreiros (Cornerstone) has very graciously donated a beautiful set of Curly Sapele, and a sinker redwood top. All of the proceeds from this auction will be passed on to Peter to contribute to a gift he is coordinating from the OLF to Kevin.

We all wish him a very speedy recovery. Thanks again Peter.








This auction will end Wednesday @ noon EST.

I'll add something...I'll just have to figure out what!

Maybe it would be smart to have some seperate auctions so the amount doesn't get to huge for one person to buy, and a lot of people can participate...

Don, I think that's a great idea. Too great of a value may price some people out of the auction.
But it could also offer a better value and have more people join in?

Its up to you guys...

If you were to ask me, and you didn't , I would start another auction. My pockets are deep, especially this time of the year.

All is know is in the past, we have gotten a pretty good responce to full or near full guitar kits.
I think it would be best to try to maximize this auction with any additions.

There are a whole lot of new builders that might jump in at the change to get a near complete kit....
