Anyone here going to the Guitar Foundation of America convention in Ithaca New York this next week? www.guitarfoundation.org Go the the vendors fair page . If so stop by my table and see my guitars and all the makers there. The list is impressive! Some of the best classical & flamenco makers in the world along with the players will be there. Mike ![[:Y:]](./images/smilies/smiley20.gif "Thumbs Up")

Hi David! It was nice seeing you at ASIA. Per our conversations, I noticed that Steven Walter will be at GFA, at the Vendor's Fair. Look him up while you are there. He's a nice guy and builds some nice guitars. He likes uncomplicated designs, and doesn't use a lot of marquetry on his instruments, but they are nice. He builds two primary models - one, a Hauseresque model and the other a Humphrey-like, with raised finger board, and slanted top. I like the Hauseresque model better, myself. |

I'd love to go to this, but I don't know if I can make the long trip. It's gotta be at least 6 miles from my house.  I'll drop in on you all at least once. If I didn't have two young children and a busy week, I'd throw a little party for all of you. I will try to drop by on Wednesday if I can, to say hello and see if any of you need anything. If there's anything I can do to help make your time in my home town more enjoyable, I'd be happy to. David - somehow I managed to let the ASIA Symposium slip by without introducing myself to you. I'll rectify that while you're here in my neighborhood. |

Todd, Was that you in the knit cap sitting across from Scott MacDonald at the "picnic"? |

Yes, and I had a great conversation with Scott as we sat there. I found him to be quite a wise and insightful guy; I drank deeply from the fount of his mind. (Just don't tell anyone you saw me with a can of Budweiser in my hand.) (While you're here in Ithaca, pick up some pale ale, nut brown ale, or summer brew from the Ithaca Beer Company!) |
