  1. And what does he record with and how does the engineer craft his sound and what guitar does he play it into and what song is he playing and how is the CD pressed. Is he America's John Mayhall / Eric Clapton/Peter Greene/ Mick Taylor? Seriously he has gotten so much better in his more recent recordings and shows.
  2. Agree, there are a tremendous number of factors when considering - desired tone, style of music, fingers and touch, wood and build, amps, ears, (hearing is MAJOR as frequency range decreases with age ((except for one of our members who has dog ear 20 -20,000 HZ range) Marketing and brain perception
  3. I like looking at your pretty guitars. The implied lesson here is don't buy some gorilla glue and do it yourself. But finding an excellent repair guy in Kalamazoo is considerably easier than many other cities. You are one lucky guy!
  4. I only have 1 H150 it's a goldtop built in 2006 purchased 2009 from Jupiter Florida for $1800 used. Guess the internet did not have a "what would this cost 9 years ago" function back in the day
  5. Rich, We went to different schools. My math is a little different. Every guitar made in the USA that a musician can't afford is a guitar not sold and not manufactured. In the 60's a teenager started out on a Kent and graduated to a Fender, Gibson or Guild. If a Fender, it was a Mustang the Gibson was single pickup Junior the guild a Starfire 3. What is the current price point for a Collins, Gibson, Taylor or Heritage made in the USA?
  6. Sir Brently, $1,200 in 2026 vs $1800 for a US built H150 in 2006, don't know what the currency conversion is but that is not a bolt on neck and these features are arguably something preferable. Without hands and ears on it it's hard to make a value judgment. Best not sell something short just because of where it was built.
  7. I strung up my 147 with half rounds. The worst of each type I say, but that is just my fingers and ears
  8. Hope you never washed it after the inaugural event. It might still smell of sawdust from Marv, Jim, JP and Ren.
  9. Even better your choice was made with hands and ears! To paraphrase the words of the great Groucho Marx "who do you believe the guitar or your own eyes"!
  10. Wow! If this was a clear winner over several CC 535s as well as Gibsons, I can only imagine it plays and sounds as good as it looks. And it looks fantastic!!!
  11. So, pay it forward or play it forward?
  12. LOVELY Some lumber on that 575!
  13. Saw one at a PSP can't remember which one but I should appear in the group photo. Could have been 2012 or 2013. That was the reason I asked Marv to build my 147
