Fred is building a pro lite for me .Well the top is done and he has 2 pedals on so far. today he called and let me hear it . he played two songs over the phone it was beautiful. I had one phone my wife had the other phone.It was so beautiful my wife had tears in her eyes.I don't know what was more exciting to hear Fred play or to know that was my geetar he was playing. the only down side is now my wife wants one for her self. Thanks so much Fred. Your Friend in Virginia ........Jerry

Fred, I love your sense for detail..like just the way you round over the ends of the knee levers, and the ADJUSTABLE knee lever return stops...and just the right amount of finishing on the undercarriage parts. Did you sand to a certain grit there and not buff? Whatever you did is right on. You are a fine craftsman.

Jerry you are a lucky man to get a great from Fred!

Bent thank you again brother for your support and kindest.
For the most part, my machinist is as particular as I am.
Most of the small part come right out of the CNC to me, some he puts in a tumbler.
As I use them I wire wheel most everything, cross shafts and all, so I try to maintain a consistent finish on the under carriage.

I visited Fred at his shop last week. I saw your guitar "in progress". I love that shade of blue. From what I saw, Fred is a stickler for detail. His guitars look great. Thanks for having me Fred!
