Nice words, Jimmie.

It was good to speak with you again the other day, and I look forward to seeing you at the end of the month so we can discuss my new JCH - I should have done this years ago, but better late than never!

It's great news that Jeff is 'on board' as well - this team will be hard to beat!

Best wishes, Jimmie, and take care of yourself....

John, you wanted that '70 resored??..I thought you said 'replaced'...catch your breath, I'm kiddin'. After 6 months with Jimmie, I'm totally blown away by his attention to detail and quality control....and I'll betcha', no one pains and worries over guitars more than this guy...he wants them perfect..period, and will suffer no tolerance over .0005in. He's wearin' me out, but making me a waaay better mechanic for the effort. There is nothing I would like to see more, than to have that 10+10 P/P..a Jimmie special(one of the last living dinosaurs), go to a trade for one of these perfect new JCH's...there has to be at least ONE of Jimmie's creations go to the Hall of Fame(after I'm done playin' it, of course).
Yes, if you're going to check Jimmie's work, you dang well better have an accurate dial/digital caliper...and again, I am more than thrilled to be working with him.
In keeping with the new age CAD design/machining, we will more than be able to accomodate all new orders and retrofits. Finally, the best will be within reasonable time as well as financial limits, with NO loss of quality control. So keep them cards and letters comin' kids!..Jimmie's lovin' it!..and credit is due this great man for this exceptional effort on behalf of the instrument for all of us.

Jimmy thanks for coming on to this thread and saying what you said. I have played a jch for 7 years five and six nights a week. And it has never let me down. I don't want to trade it in. I want two of them but my problem is it's my wife's turn to pick a color. Can you mail me some color i have to chose from? Me? once you go black won't never go back but gotta keep the women happy.
Don't change a thing about your guitars or your since of perfection and dedication to this instrument. We all appreciate you very much. especially those who need aguitar that can handle a lot of playing. The JCH is my guitar for quite sometme so keep on keepin on babe!

The JCH is played by Steve Sturm, who is the steel guitarist in Travis Tritt's band, and Trace Adkins' steel guitarist, Randy Hess plays a JCH too. Steve's JCH is a white D-10 and Randy's is a black D-10. Russ Hicks was playing a JCH at the St. Louis show this year. Brett Day, Emmons S-10, Morrell lapsteel

Mine's white, but in this particular case I
don't believe that's referring to purity....
unless you're talking about the hands on quality that James Lee puts into every guitar
that leaves his shop. Thanks to Jimmy, my pal and hero, and welcome Mr Emmons.

Nice looking guitar.

And I know that Scott Henderson's sounded great at Bill Jobes jam (but then again Scott is a great picker too

)

Does JCH guitars have a website? Price list?

That JCH of Jon's really does look that good in person. It sounds and plays maybe even a bit better that it looks. Jimmie's guitars are real works of art.

Hi Scott, I enjoyed meeting you and hearing you from the front row gang at the Baxter Springs show. That sure was a great show. You did great, the JCH sounded great and you did not show any nerve problem to me!
