Are they still in buiness? I have e-mailed them for 3 weeks and have never gotten a response yet. Do they still build guitars for individuals or do you have to go through a dealer?

I found the trouble, he has 2 e-mail address on his web site and the one I was using must not be active, I tried the other one and got him.

I am a dealer for Jerry and have a new black SD-10 Fessenden posted in the for sale section on the forum. It is the one he had on display in his booth at Dallas. I am sure many of you saw it there. He sent two steels home with me. The other one has been sold. I shipped it to Osaka, Japan. Jerry is truly known for his quality world over.
