Anyone heard from Jerry? There is awful flooding in his area of Vermont.
Hope everyone stays safe and well!

Yes, Jerry lives in Indianapolis.
I have a single 10 Fessy and love it. It's my first guitar with metal necks, and the best sounding guitar I've owned.
He had his Vermont cell # for a couple of years and it's now disconnected.
When I worked for Robert Randolph, in 2002, as his guitar tech, he had two Fessenden guitars, a purple one and a black and yellow one.
I decided to glue some of the loose silver bindings on his purple guitar with crazy glue.
I applied the glue and when I pressed the binding to the body, the crazy glue dripped down the front apron of the guitar.
NOT a good start to my new job.
I was able to "lighten" up the drip and never heard about it.
"Hello" Jerry. If you read this, give me a call, por favor.

Jerry will be at the Denver Steel Show on August 13 and will see him there. I love my two Fessenden’s and they sound great!

Tommy, I spoke to Jerry yesterday. He is living in Indy and staying busy building Six Shooter guitars. He' as okay as Jerry ever was and that covers a lot of things! (Haha) you know Jerry!
