Butch is a great guy and his product is top notch. We spent some time yesterday just talking about the business. He has some creative ideas. Be looking for some new products in the future.

I wouldn't want to be a BJS competitor. This is one piece of gear that most people are with for life after they try one. It's good that the company continues on with the tradition of quality.

I still have their 1994 brochure.
That claimed to temper the bars "at two hundred degrees (or similar number) below absolute zero." Never did understand that bit of physics.
2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)
More amps than guitars, and not many effects

Thanks to everyone for the kind words and support. There are so many of you I have yet to meet. Lee and I will be in Dallas so please, stop by and say hello if you get a chance.

I must apologize for being out of stock on several items, but I am taking steps to get back on track. My wife Deborah and I are about buy and move to another house that will facilitate a new shop. I plan to double the size of the shop and it will be located on the same property. Step out the back door and go to work. My builder says two to three months depending on the weather. I'll keep working in the garage until the shop is complete, but it will be a make do situation. I hope to be back running better than ever by early summer.

Thanks again, Butch
