Three new Brooks for Project – a walnut Taw and a rosewood Tavy and Teign.
Pam’s latest is this Lamorna
With a redwood top
Myrtle back and sides, custom nut width, scale length and neck,
And gold Grover tuners.
Here’s a rosewood and Sitka Lamorna for one of Mak’s customers,
An 015 model with abalone border and rosette,
Bound fingerboard and headstock, diamond and dot pearl fingerboard inlays, with slotted headstock and gold tuners
Mark Waistell’s just released his third album ‘With Fine Disregard’. He used his Taw on all of the tracks.
Tim Carroll of Folk Words wrote “Songs of depth and feeling delivered by a voice that has the substance and richness that only time and experience can engender. Striking melodies and charismatic songs”. You can hear it on Bandcamp or Mark’s website.
Paul brought over his Taw for a set up along with this desktop for us to re-saw,
We’ve cut it into sets and we’re building him an all mahogany Weaver from it.
Rich sent us this photo from his hotel room in Boston during another convention. He added “Still strumming and making dentists smile”!
Tim’s just headed off down under for a series of dates in Australia. He’s not taking his Taw this time as he’ll be playing with the band over there.
We just set up this vintage Watkins Rapier, it’s had a re-spray but apart from that it’s original!
