I met with John earlier this past week and it was very favorable. He actually made the first move, so to speak, by inviting me to possibly sell out of there. He really appreciates the quality and uniqueness and the local tie as well. We will talk in a couple of weeks when I will be able to get a guitar or two and a couple of bodies over there. He just had a nice feature article done on him in the newspaper and one of the local morning shows is going to broadcast out of there this Wednesday morning. He says his site gets 170,000 hits a MONTH and is located across the street from the Eastman School of Music and in the heart of the Jazz Festival where he remained open until 2:00am and was busy throughout during the festival!

 

I need to check in with Chuck (the model maker) and see if he got his CNC router in yet... This could be really good as he has my target market in his shop every day... :)

 

While there, I also tried out a couple Eastman archtops and HOLY CRAP! They are amazingly responsive even purely acoustically!!! Yes, they are hand made in Bejing, but these really are sweet, high quality guitars for under $2000... VERY impressive! John would not touch them if they weren't... You guys should check his site out.

I'll never get rich on these, for sure. They cost too much to make and I can't sell them very high as I do not have a recognizable (or pronouncable) name. Thanks for the encouragement though! ;)

So call 'em Boggs Guitars. ;)

 

Good for you. I suppose your last name is no more difficult than Epi Stathopoulo. Somehow he came up with a brand that incorporated his name. ;) (Just in case it's a mystery who I'm speaking of.. Epiphone! ;) )

It's easiest to find me on Facebook. Neil Bergman

Were you ever associated with American Acoustech Guitars??

No. Not associated with anybody, actually. I use Carvin pickups and they were very helpful, but they have made it clear that they will only build their own designs. I'm on my own...

With or without me, it's a helluva store.

I never heard of the place and I'm in Staten Island all the time. I'll have to check it out next time I'm there.

HardTail,

 

Oh man....you MUST visit Mando Bros...they are one of the premier vintage stores in the universe. First time I was there, I went to check out a Gibson Advanced Jumbo (new one, NOT and old one!!!). After I did my buisness, I asked the sales person to show me "one of the good ones". Well, the next thing you know I'm playing a 1942-ish Martin 000-28!! It looked like shit, but I hit an "E" chord, and it blew my mind. It's been 5 years, and I still can't get that guitar off my mind!

 

Check Mando Bros out!! They have a ton of cool axes, new, but especially old stuff.
