What can I say? I’m absolutely gob-smacked and delighted with the ‘Buddy Holly Guitar Foundation’ ‘Johnson J45’ you made for me!
I just took it straight out of the case WITHOUT even tuning it and it was perfectly in tune and sounded FANTASTIC, with a rich very even tone and perfect intonation right up to the ‘dusty’ end!
I think I can say ‘hand on heart’ it’s at least equal to the BEST acoustic guitar I’ve EVER played, if not actually the best, (and I’ve played at least 2 others! … Ho Ho!)
More like 200 others, INCLUDING Don Everly’s J200 (courtesy of J.I. Allison) as played on most, if not all of their early hits.
You’re a true master craftsman Mick and I’m proud to be the recipient of one of your master pieces!
(Can’t wait to get my ‘Johnson Strat’ made!)
Keep on Luthier-ing my boy.
Love & Laughter,
Mike Berry
