Highlights of 2004!
Martin Simpson test driving my Red Spruce OM in Marblehead, MA. After 13 years of being inspired by Martin's guitar playing and choice of instruments, it was an absolute honor to have him play my guitar and to hear him say that is was, "beautifully made" and a "lovely guitar"!
Peter Finger performing at Pantheon Guitars. Peter is a dear friend of mine and was the first person I called to perform at the 'Source Guitar Festival'.
Peter is one of the most magical composer/guitar players alive today!
Talking guitars with Peter Finger and Teja Gerken. Teja is
an editor with Acoustic Guitar Player Magazine and also a wonderful fingerstyle
guitar player.
In June 2004 I helped organize the 'Source Guitar Festival' in Lewiston, Maine. Organizing the festival gave me the opportunity to book some of my favorite guitarist. Celtic fingerstyle guitarist Steve Baughman was on the top of my list.
