Chewie - that is a great article and makes good reading. The article ties in nicely with the snippets of history that BP has told us about.

Thanks for posting that - has BP seen it yet?

Great article. Can't say I've ever seen an Earthwood Guitar or Bass except at the Open House.

AJ did you get it for yourself or for the company?

Cool read. You should frame it some where. Maybe donate it to the rock and roll hall of fame,or you know those hard rock cafe things.
