Post subject:  RIP Max Bishop

It is with great sadness that I report that long time OLFer and classical guitar builder Max Bishop passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by loved ones yesterday.

Max was on the OLF for many years and Max had gone to Spain several times to study classical guitar building.

His classical guitars that he lovingly crafted were superb in all respects and sounded incredible.

Max had also served his county in the US Marine Corps and was a great patriot.

He was our friend, Dave and I and Max lived near us so we saw him every year or so.

Semper Fi Max Bishop you will be dearly missed.

Sorry to hear about Max, I recall him being a real gentlemanly type here on the forum.

I remember him. Wasn’t his avatar a mitered topper?

Terry I think he had a graphic of a Catholic Bishop's hat IIRC. I just checked his Facebook page we were/are friends and don't see his OLF avatar.
