Is this the Fessy that used belong to Tommy White? Sure looks a lot like it. Thanks

This is not the Fessy that Tommy White just sold. This may be one of his because It has two stripes on it. Beautiful and fantastic sound. Fessy's are great guitars and especially if you play them like Tyler Hall. Whoever gets this one will get a beauty too.

Yes, this guitar was custom built for Tommy, but now owned by another fine local player. BTW, the Sho-Bud volume pedal bracket shown in the photo does not go with the guitar. I guess I forgot to remove it before the photo was made. Thanks for all the nice compliments on the Fessy. D.D.

Duane,
There were only two of these built and I have the other one. That makes them special because the were built for Tommy. They are fine guitars for tone also. These giutars will last someone a lifetime.

But Doc, what about mine? Mine has double strips?!?!?!? Image

I'd love to have this guitar, but I just got mine out of the shop. These are great sounding and great looking guitars. Doc, are you bringing your Fessy to the show?

Hi Kid,
We will not talk about your strips. You have enough problems with your slot in the ASGA
show. Yes I will bring it if you want. It is the Day setup. Mine has the Shobud petal and the rolling SKB case so it won't be hard to bring it. Will see you Sat eve.before the show.

I tried but he would not ship to Canada!
Reason to much customs hassles. I always
thought the hassle was on our side when we have to pay the duties.

I have had some interesting trade offers on the Fessenden, but the owner has declined those trades. One nice 05 Carter was especially attractive, but it too was declined, so the Fessy is still available. As Richard said, I decided several months ago to discontinue all my international sales, except for a very small number of my previously established customers. Not picking on Canada, or anybody else in particular, but just tired of the time spent obtaining freight company estimates, currency exchange, Custom's paperwork, stressful delays in delivery, etc. I wish it wasn't like that, but that's how it's been for me. Best regards to all our world wide Forum friends.<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Duane Dunard on 21 February 2006 at 01:48 PM.]</p></FONT>
