Mike, I'm new to the group and was wondering what the order is that you are refering to. Also, I have just acquired a tenor guitar - Kalamazoo late 30's...
Hi all, I've been a member of this group (first group ever, for that matter) and didn't realize it's no more then decent to introduce myself. I'm a mid-fourty...
Now that I'm in a writing mood, I might as well burden you with my dilemma. I'm really a fan of the sound of mahogany Martin guitars. In fact, I own two...
Thanks for that, Marc, it was very interesting. Don't apologise for your English - it looks pretty good to me! I have German roots - my mother is German and...
Doc, Mike orders batches of instruments in various configurations and offers them for sale to TGR members particularly those who have placed orders previously....
... Steven Pyott sent you this ebay item. Personal message: It's a bit pricey but I can strongly recommend this book because its excellent section on tenor...
Hi from, Mike. Thank you Steve. Thank you Doc. The best thing I could say about tuning would be to start with what you know. If you play Banjo now start with...
Mike, I would be interested in learning more about the LF4E. Cost?,,,,Can it be ordered in Blonde, Black, or White? Is a vibrato tailpiece available? Is it ...
I would follow e-bay for a couple of weeks. I am thinking they are close in price, with the Martin being a little higher, but it has been a while since I was...
Hi Mike. If I recall correctly, you had mentioned a while ago that some of the new models would come in a darker color (perhaps black) and without the reddish...
I'm catching up with my e-mail. UKE VIRUS: I just spent a weekend with about 200 people thoroughly infected with the Uke Virus, it was the Midwest Uke Fest No....
Hi from, Mike. Thank you. On the LF4E - We do make it in a 23" as well as a 26" The 26" would be better for guitar tuning. But the 23" can also be tuned this...
Today was special. How many times in your life do you place an order for a new guitar? A tenor Guitar. Brand new. Made 'specially for you? It's a rush. Thanks...
Chef, Do you own the blonde ES330TDN that you sometimes use as an image under your name in your e-mails? If you do, then it's a pretty special and rare tenor...
Let us know when you put your custom Ovation up for sale. I was working with the Ovation staff to build a custom tenor based on the USA models, but the...
... Actually, I've done custom orders - though OK, not all for tenors - several times! It's fun! (And addictive) It's also not that hard to do; this is the...
Yes. Gold is not ideal here as it is soft, and in any event it will have to be an alloy or you can't work it. My advice is rhodium (costs five time more than...
The Veronica at: http://www.earnestinstruments.com/veronica.html is very close to my "Dream Machine". Thanks for pointing it out to me. As to the ES330TDN: I...
Agreed. Gold in color was what I meant but didn't make myself clear. Chef ... From: gramario [mailto:gramario@...] Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2004 6:02 AM...
Hello all Just wanted to let you know that I've reduced the price of my books. The volume of sales has allowed me to do this. Now $19.90 US on Ebay and...
I think that the "Perfect" guitar, be it 4 or 6 string is a as much a myth as the "Perfect" wife. I thought my first wife was the perfect wife until I caught...
My large Levin tenor from the thirties might be the perfect one. At least for me. At least at this moment. Anyway I never found it in bed with my wife ;-). ...
I hope you will post on the list when the Ovation is officially on eBay so we can all "ooh" and "aah". James I think Mike may already have it in stock. It's...
