Great Pictues Hesh! Thank you for sharing.

By the way, did you get a chance to listen to the Ryan with holes in the armrest?

The second to last picture of the guy with the banjo... I can't remember his name, but I'm pretty sure that's the guy whose house I stayed at when I took Harry Fleishman's class. He used to (or still does?) make the tone generators/amps/speakers for doing glitter tests and whatnot, the ones LMI used to sell.

WOW Hesh! GREAT pics of the guitars and people at the show. It is really good to be able to put faces to all of the names that I have come to know from this forum. I'm looking forward to more pics!!

That's cool, Hesh. I hope it was educational to have access to those other
guitars. I didn't even realize you were going. Did you get a chance to see
Matt Mustapick and his guitars? They look great and have lots of
complexity. What you noted about Ervin's guitars is something I noticed
immediately about the Traugotts. Very fast fundamental with complexity.
I was PM'ing with Kevin Gallagher about the players I suspect like them,
and I thought classical oriented musicians and players who otherwise
gravitate towards high music would love them.

We can talk about building and ask for tool ideas () all day long, but
nothing is as educational as playing and hearing the instruments in
person. After meeting Matt, Rick, and Jeff two weeks ago, I realized more
questions I would've loved to ask them. Thankfully they're a 2 1/2 hour
drive away that I make monthly to surf and not across the country!     

btw, what the heck is going on outside on all the wood chips? It makes
me feel like I'm doing yard duty at the elementry school again, making a
bunch of 5th graders stand on the wall for running on the blacktop.

Thanks for being the Dude that you are and sharing.Does this mean we have to be nice to you? Maybe I won`t mess up your shop on my next visit to A2.

I saw this guitar and soundport evolve from the beginning. Definitely one of Kevin's best sounding guitars.
Amazing concept how the soundport is aimed at the players ear.

I think your right about the group photo.I`m thinking Ervin`s feet got that way because he uses them to tap his tops.Or if you look closely ,he`s been tapping bottoms.
