Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub		I know there are quite a few folks out there who own and love their shiny bowls...

As a recent inductee into this club, I'm curious to hear what folks think about theirs...

I'm REALLY knocked-out about this guitar's tone/volume.

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains		I love my 68 Balladeer 12...it is such a cool guitar even with all the wear and tear: everytime I play it I'm reminded me of why I love these guitars so much...it needs some work and one day perhaps: but then, its so cool just the way it is.

I read the title and thought you'd started your own religion.

I really can't believe I'm so taken with this guitar, narrow neck, shameful pickguard shadow and all.

It's like a coiled watch spring, loosed from it's chaste case confinement, the moment you touch a string- POING!!!!

Location: Battle Ground, WA.		The Action on my Josh White is unbelievable! It is the easiest playing guitar I have ever played. I was surprised to hear my own echo from the bowl while talking to my wife, talk about genius design. Hats off brother!

Location: Nova Scotia, Canada		I love my '68 Glen and '67 Josh. Both are super instruments.

I can only wonder what these would have sounded like by now if they had've had laquer finishes instead of poly.
