Knowing Gordon probably has the major guitar companies supply him with more guitars than he could ever wear out, I did wonder if he might want a Luthier build him a custom guitar?
I am a small builder in Virginia and work from home by appointment only. I haven't had the chance to build for a professional player yet but have had the chance to build for music lovers and players old and new.

He & Terry had custom guitars by a Canadian builder, but nostly he sticks to Martin & Gibson.

You are a luthier? I produced the documentary "The American Acoustic Guitar" some years back. I've also done some interviews in VA & NC with builders. Teaching video production in VA now.

Bill, That is very interesting. Is the documentary still available?
You are teaching video production in VA? What location?

To your question. Yes, I am a Luthier. I have been building instruments, primarily string for what some consider a long time. Over twenty years.
