January 2013

Because of the demise of iWeb I am forced out of my comfort zone and must create a new website.  I chose to use Sandvox and so far so good.  Unfortunately my old blog posts will be gone but you've all seen them anyway and it was getting out of hand.


I have a new guitar at The Podium It is a 17" archtop designed by Twin Cities jazz legend David Roos from the store.

It features laminated double Mahogany sides, a laminated Mahogany back and a solid European Spruce top.  It's fitted with a mounted TVJones pickup and has parallel bracing to help with feedback.  It's designed primarly to be played plugged in but the acoustic sound is better than I expected.  Marty Reynolds from The Podium wired the electronics.

   


                                        


                                 Fun at the store.  David, owner Jeff Molde, and uberrepairman Marty Reynolds


I will be getting three back from finish next week.  One, a double side Rosewood/Lutz OM will go to the store as well.  I am also starting three more for The Podium, all OM's that hopefully will be there by mid summer.  Stay tuned!
