Richard Jacob - calling Ehernandez m...

The next two books I’m going to buy will be the Arias book and a book about Jacob Richard - Weissgerber

Since I’m making a series of smaller body guitars that break from contemporary classical sizes, this is the German to study. His guitars are fascinating. He built around 3200 guitars, but with the assistance of two relatives.

Some of the common features of his work are very long string ramps, minimal rosettes and bindings, or extremely florid binding /purfling. He also had a penchant for being all over the map with plantilla shape, from elegant reductive lines to goofy over determined fancy curves.

Because don’t we all need a break from conde’ talk hell?

Oh man, I’m so over that dusty old stuff. I’m going full Velvet Elvis:

The Boss says, Ooo look Christmas red and green… at the rate I’ve been building though I just might make it ;)

Boss also says I need to sell a couple more guitars before I can buy another fancy coffee table guitar book.

I prefer my flamenco guitar spicy,
doesn't have to be fast,
should have some meat on the bones,
can be raw or well done,
as long as it doesn't sound like it's turning green on an elevator floor.

I think you need a moose head on your label, overlayed with crossing Winchesters

Arnt you guys sweet, may as well tattoo PENTENERES across my back over a red and black bullseye ;)

Was working late in the shop two nights ago and the Boss pokes her head in the door, MOOSE IN THE YARD!

I was playing that Perez con PDL video Ricardo posted a few weeks ago on another thread. I just reached over and twisted the volume knob to 12, you know butt rockers can only go to eleven and have no compas ;)

I lived in Anchorage, Alaska for the two years I was in middle school. City population was only 25,000 back in those days.

My buddy Ivan and I spent a lot of time hiking around the area. We saw several black bears, but the only time we got really scared near Anchorage was when we unexpectedly came up on a cow moose and her calf.

Hiking down on the Kenai Peninsula with Ivan's Dad we walked into a clearing among tall trees. Three brown bears stood up and started sniffing the breeze. Fortunately we were downwind and brown bears have poor distant vision.

Nobody has to tell you how to act when you see a brown bear.

Just the cases were stolen, or were there guitars in them??

Thanks John, I enjoyed the information, but now I have to be more careful about which Canadians I hang with 😂

You guys are missing an important historical point contained in the article. Moosehead also made T-shirts. They used to include a free T in each case of two-four. Needless to say, I have a crapload of them...

Also cool is how Ernie's bridges incorporate the Moosehead colours. Coincidence?

I think Tennessee Ernie Moose Slayer’s bridges look like that because he’s eating some wild tundra mushrooms.

Moose stories ... any Canadian should have at least one .
Working as a set carpenter on some film that weas in a rush to get done , the crew was on cripple time and at odds with a snooty art director .
Some of them had been on a set with him in the frozen north , and related that they came across a moose victim of road kill , picked it up and put it in the back of the truck .
They jammed it into the art director's vehicle and by that late evening when he came out to his car the moose was frozen solid .
