It has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows since the last post. OVER A YEAR AGO.
We haven’t given up, life has provided some big challenges for us.
We have all new machinery. New Routers, a new space to work in, new employees, you name it.
At this time we are getting ready for Spring, we will be back up and running this time. Nothing gonna stop us now. (great that song is in my head now).
Myself, I had a close call. Almost bit it a couple times last year with a real bad bought of pneumonia and some heart issues. I am not the only one, as people around me suffering from the same thing. Gee, I wonder what could have caused this? Yeah that was a jab (see what I did there?).
We must carry on.
The land scape of guitar has pivoted and changed so much. I honestly can’t believe in some of the stuff coming out from China. The quality and price points are a little scary but in the end I am not sure these companies will be around long let alone create a brand that people feel good about.
I understand you do the best with what you got. If you asked me would you rather have a Chinese guitar or no guitar at all, I would say Chinese Guitar. And I will always stand by, what works for you might not work for others. I wrote some of my favorite licks on a line 6 30 watt spider (despite what Glenn F says). I loved jammin on that with my Ernie Ball Axis (not a Sterling – NOT that there is anything wrong with that).
Our guitars will be a Symbiotic Evolution due to all the ideas and innovation. This has taken us 4 years to get to this point. Trial and Error. Trial and Error. Error, Error and more Error. We do want this to be as perfect as we can.
We have been concerned with the Coffee table guitars out there. There are guitars being made that look like works of art and should be celebrated and talked about but not actually played. Even though Josh and I have an appetite for the high end, there are some instruments we won’t play out with because of the insane price tags.
We want to make players for players and inspire them. I got involved in this because I wanted to make guitars that I really wanted. The big boys don’t make things the way they should and if you want a custom shop get ready to drop between $3500 on the low and $8000 on the high. That doesn’t work for most people. That is where we come in. We heard that you had some cash in a jar on the fridge and we want to help you put more cash in that jar.
So things will be updated more on a monthly basis. We will keep people guessing until we are ready to unveil. In the meantime if you need Guitar Tech work, set ups, pick up changes, custom pick guards, you name it, Josh and I ready for what you want to throw at us. We are true professionals with a low turn around time and best prices in town. You can take that to the bank!
