My copy came today and I'll admit I was thinking emailing them to ask if I
could return it within ten minutes. The packaging is the best packaging
I've ever seen on a DVD, but after seeing the rest, I have a feeling they
just out-sourced to a printer's ready-made setup. The shots really get in
the way of the storytelling, there's not a single decent clip of the guitars
in question, and other than Rick's piece, you don't really get much
information about anything because it's so randomly sequenced. The
audio's all over the place (level wise, EQ wise, and compressed to the
point where a cricket would dominate if it decided to chirp), the video
either feels like a web cam or the frame rate's terribly low, and the way
they compressed it as a whole really degraded the look (there are frame
trails!). Anyway, I'm bummed to say the least.

I'll retract one of the above comments. There are some decent clips of
the Michael Lewis archtops. But still, the random German interludes
make little to no sense. Especially when they're cooking dinner.
