It was great to see some old friends and meet some new ones and I took a LOT of pics for my OLF friends.

So much so, pics that is that it will take me a while to process all of the pics but here are the first eight. These are iPhone pics so don't expect perfection.

I only went for a few hours the first day and then steered down to Elderly to see what's calling my name for my collection.... ;) Did speak with Roger Sawdowski about commissioning two Teles custom made one for me and one for my strumming buddy Mike. We are getting the band back together :)

Anyway more pics to come, lots more and you will see the best equipped Lutherie shop and school that I've ever seen and where I would have gone myself had I known what I know now and could do it all over again.

Many, many thanks to Bryan Gallup for the Northwoods Seminar and his friendship.

Nice pics Hesh, is that Martin the one that Bryan saved from a dumpster and cut the faux finish cracks in with an exacto knife?

Such a good opportunity, I wish I could have gone again this time. Maybe it won't be the last one.

Thanks for the pics, Hesh!

It won't be the last with every Northwood they all have been billed in the past to be the last.... :D Marketing ya know :D

The place remained me of the film Apocalypse Now (greatest film of all time or one of them) where after the long river ride taking fire and tigers and such they come to a point in the river where there are lots of lights and a carnival type atmosphere. That was what my drive was like yesterday lots of country side and then you come to Lutherie Mecca :)
