Hi Ollie:
Congratulations on your new Fulawka. Ed is a fine craftsman.
I met you only once and that was back in 1962
at the Jocky Club in Hamilton,Ont. You were either with Bernie Hughes or Ron MacDougal?
At that time you were playing a Sho-Bud and I had the pleasure of you letting me try it at break time that day. Up to that point I had never seen a Sho-Bud let alone play one.
That was forty years ago! It must have been a highlight of my playing career as I still remember the occasion.
Hope you are feeling better soon and good luck with your new Guitar.
Roy

Hi Rusty
the new one is a double 10 with 7 knees,the RKL works on both necks,,Eddie loaded the guitar for 9 floors but I only have 8 at this time..the guitar is birdseye maple , clear on top with a rich brown front and necks and white frets..Eddie mixed in a couple of other tints untill it "gleamed"in my eye..I don't think he knows what is in the mix,, when you get custom built guitar it is one of a kind,,,,there is a couple new changes on mine ,,small things that give a little better travel or smoother feel ... I'll try to get a dig. camera and get some pictures ASAP.... Ollie |
