Here was the email that accompanied Jack’s recording: “A tribute to one freaking awesome instrument that gets better every day - you guys rock! The last time I bonded this tightly to an instrument was a certain drum kit that was made for my funk style 20 years ago. ....what you guys made is art, but I'm not hanging it on the wall, I'm playing it every day. ...yes, I am not worthy, but I'm ignoring that for the moment & sending you my "Healy version" of Dream On with my new kid. He's challenging, but when I get it right, he's the best.”

With owners like this, we could be motivated to keep building until the day we die! Check out his song here.

When Jon Duncan ordered an all-maple concert, we thought he was just so consumed with UAS that he wasn’t thinking straight! After a lot of discussion, we agreed to build it for him, but it was really against our better judgment. Think again! We love the way it turned out, and it is a jewel in his hands.
