After making a banjo, and learning a bit on how to play like Earl Scruggs, it was discovered that almost no one else plays a banjo. The hope of playing music with others got more distant as time went on. The solution, of course, is to play a guitar, as millions of others do also. Upon looking at guitars for sale, I decided as with many things, to build one. I can certainly make better than what is generally available. Guitars need to sound good, so that the sound is music to ones ears instead of noise. Guitars also need to feel good and be easy to play, so one tends to pick it up often. But what is lacking about many [most] guitars is looks. Most look just like a million others, no personality, no artist flavor. This was my second guitar, Edwin http://www.rootguitars.com
