OK OK, since I spilled the beans about Holly and about any wood you want in lumber form, billet form to 1/16" and smaller pieces to 1/6" by 1/6" See my post on wood-slicer.
Now I want to know if anyone is farmiliar with Patty Griffin; pianist, solid guitar (picking nd strumming BUT an INCREDIBLE WRITER, arranger and voice . Her 1st CD is solo next three with more and more instrumentation as she discovers how to use the expanded palate of studio musicians.

Patty is one of my favorites. Highly recommended...

Do you have "Silver Bell" or any of the other high quality boots floating around?

No I don't, you naughty boy. Now if I aan get my hands on those. I am planning to order the DVD. Have you seen it? Is it good?

Bob I was informed you have plans for Baby Jumbo-true?

Bob, nothing naughty about it. "Silver Bell" was Patty's first album that was never released apparently because her record company had a different idea of what it might have been. Fools.

Anyway, Patty and her management are all very aware that it is being traded. Not sold, traded.

At this point about 1/2 of the songs have been released on other albums, while some have not. If you'd like a copy send me a PM or email with your mailing address.

The only DVD I am aware of comes with the live album and is not concert footage, but mostly touring shots, interviews, and 2 (?) of her videos.

And now that I think about it, I don't believe that I have a full plan for any guitar! Closest thing is a copy of Bruce Dickey's tracings of an Olson that he offers. I do, however, make a small jumbo that is based loosely on a Gibson J-185, but don't use a real plan.
