Location: Seymour, Tennessee | What fantastic people he and his wife are(She makes some awesome cookies).
He let me play his beautiful guitars and I really liked his Country Artist.
This was the first time I'd seen in person, much less played, a nylon string O.
Of course, now I've got to find myself one.
If anybody gets a chance to be down in our area of East Tennessee, look him up and me too once I get back.
I had a really nice vist and plan on keeping in touch with him when I get home for good in March.
Mike, thank you so very much for welcoming me into your home, for you and your wife's gracious hospitality, and for a great time.
No thanks though for FORCING me have to find another O!
HA HA |

Location: East Tennessee | Michael,
Enjoyed your visit.Glad you liked the cookies, I finished the cookies remaining last night. I think I'll change the strings on the Country Artist and play the crap out of it for a while. This is the second one I've owned,(traded the first), this one stays on the hanger by the computer where I can grab it. |

Location: Seymour, Tennessee | Capo Guy: Thanks again! Oh yeah, the cookies didn't last more than a day after I brought them home :)
MusicMishka;I leave to go back the 18th.
I will be back for good around the end of March.
Marenostrum; I'm thinking the book will be waiting for me when I get back (fingers crossed).
It hadn't come in by the time I left to come home for my little vaction on the 31st of October but surely it'll be there by now.
I will p.m. you when I get it.
Darkbarguitar: I saw that one Patch has on the For Sale pages, VERY VERY NICE, but out of my price range right now.
I will find one eventually I'm sure.
Capo Guy's is BEAUTIFUL! a really gorgeous aged color.
The 68 DB will go to the MS upon my return, after I play it for a littlw while, I've really been missing it and my 12 CL. |
