Nice write-up, thanks for posting.

I'd love to post a similar one on the guy who made me realize I was never going to be a luthier. His name is Ward Elliott, and I had generally the same experience with him. I'm a fairly competent repairman, largely because of his tutelage, but he's an absolute master.

I've got a running joke with Elwood here - we're loothiers... spelling intentional.  ;D

Cheers, guys and lol at Edward. It would be nice if you could manage that interview, too.

Another interesting interview from that site :

http://www.dinosaurrockguitar.com/node/247

The entire site is nice for classic (or as they say Dinosaur) rock guitar. The Alchemy section has nice Player Profiles.

Cheers
