Hey Andy,
How is the warm weather treating you? Hope all is good, and you are keeping busy over there?
Just to let you know I trusted my Bouzouki to a local guy over here last Tues to do a small job on my frets. They, in places were starting to show signs of over two years of playing, but I did not need to replace any, just a light file did the job. And I have to say Quentin did a real tidy job on it too. As always its sounds just great. I cant take it out of the case without people saying how nice it is and asking who made it! Nice to see the pics are still on your website too.
Best wishes,
Seanie.

Hello Andy,
Regards from NYC. I admire the ¾ guitar you designed for Ian Anderson – a fair plucker with some potential (he’s excellent and I of course am kidding). I have a progressive disability and have had to give up on the big dreadnoughts – I have a Gibson, Martin and Guild….I currently play a seagull parlor – amazingly efficient - it serves my purpose with it’s weight and user friendly neck. So here’s the loaded question – do you still sell that remarkable ¾ anymore and for how much. If not and/or the price is prohibitive – which I have to assume is the case – could you be kind enough to share your expertise by identifying anything out there – i.e. martin backpacker, Washburn Rover etc…that you believe could be modified and once amplified produce a similar result - of course of much inferior quality but sufficient to gig with.
You are an amazingly talented man and I admire your ability….please stay healthy – I wish you Ian’s long song.
Kindest regards,
Aron

Your guitar's ROCK. I am a photographer that specializes in Guitar Photography. I just photographed the 3/4 size Parlor Guitar you made for Ian Anderson. Beautiful. Would love to send you some pix.

Hi Andy,
From our chance meeting in "Arkwrights" I have browsed your website and am very impressed with your work. As you know I am a fan of George Lowden and therefore look forward to visiting you soon. As we are neighbours, I will bring the customary Garaffa of wine to help the day along.
Best wishes for the future!

So glad you are enjoying Portugal. Cross the border for a visit to Extremadura one day and listen to some music by our local folklore group. They'd love your guitars!

Hi Andy. Congratulations for your wonderful work. I got interested recently in learning luthierie and found your site searching on google.
Your instruments and technique are truly inspiring me.
I am working in my first electric guitar and I would like to build acoustics instruments in the future.
I´m from Brazil and if I have the opportunity to visit Portugal, I´ll try to visit your office if possible. By the way, how is your portuguese?
Abraços,
Fabiano
