Re: A Luthier's Tale

I love stories when someone says "no you can't!" and you say not only "I can" but "I'm gonna do it better than you think is possible."

I've had chips on my shoulders for various things, for some reason vindication feels amazing.

Re: A Luthier's Tale

That looks like a cool story - I haven't time to read it all now but will check it out over the weekend.

I'd also recommend reading Bob Taylor's book "Guitar Lessons" as a follow up on this, as I expect both stories will dovetail in nicely (pardon the pun).  I read Bob's book a few years back and it is an easy read and thoroughly enjoyable.
