Fred, I can never thank you enough for the experience of getting this guitar built in the first place, and I haven't even played a note on it yet.
This is the result of over 2 years research, putting together a Copedent, finding a builder, ensure I'm gonna learn how to play it and get everything in motion. I had an S-10 Pro in mind when we started, but as Fred and I discussed what I wanted to do with the Copedent - he made the recommendation to shift to a wider Pro Lite. Looking at the pictures of the undercarrage - that was the correct choice. We made some adaptations to the original copedent - a result of a GFI Student I'm playing, and Fred's professional opinion on these matters. We were making changes to everything right up to the last minute (accent color change), and I got excited every time I got a phone call. Hearing that first note, that's a nice touch Fred.
In the end I think that Port Red looks a lot better than the Red Breeze I had originally planned, and the Luxury Grey has so much character. I can't wait for it to arrive. I'll do my best in the coming weeks after it arrives to give a more through review of this remarkable instrument. |

You're going to love it Benjamin, I'll bet I'll hear the hootin and hollering all the way up here in Maine. BTW if you find yourself near the Southern Coast of Maine give me a shout. _________________ Banjo, Dobro, Guild D-40, Telecaster, Justice Pro Lite 3x5, BOSS Katana 100, Peavey Nashville 112 in a Tommy Huff cabinet, Spark, FreeLoader, Baby Bloomer, Peterson StroboPlus HD, Stage One VP.

Thanks everyone, Fred you sure know how to build these things.
I literally rushed home during my lunch break here as my wife texted with news of the arrival.
I have a long weekend ahead getting to know her, and figuring out how to properly photograph the character of this steel. |

Figured I'd drop back in and give a little update, its been about 6 weeks or so.
I've been amazed at this steel every-time I sit down to her. Now with me getting some real quality seat time in the last couple of weeks, I cant say enough great things about this guitar.
I want to say thanks again to Fred and his costumer service. I'll be adding a 5th pedal for faux C6/Universal work and adjusting the copedent. And Fred is always available to give me a hand.
I'll hold off the new photos until I have that pedal installed. This Luxury Grey mica looks remarkable in person. |
