Brazilian Holo Import Help!
Hi everyone, This Holo popped up on Reverb the other day, and I quickly bought it. I've been on the hunt for one for a long time, and they don't come up for sale often. I didn't give much thought to the fact that the guitar was Brazilian, it was in Canada, and I'm in the US. The seller went to ship the guitar yesterday and… -

Any competent Gypsy Guitar techs in N Y - N J ?
I used to bring my guitars to the great Allen Watsky, but sadly he moved to North Carolina (can't blame him!). He really understood the Selmers and how to get the most of them. I'm afraid if I bring it to a run-of-the-mill guitar guy he won't know what to do with it, and he'll lower the action, make the bridge holes too… -

Contact pickup placement on F-hole guitar
Just picked up a beautiful JWC Catania Swing DI Mauro-style F-hole guitar. I am wondering about the placement of a contact pick up like a Carlos Sensor or the like. Anyone have experience doing that? I can try to find a sweet spot around the treble side of the bridge as often recommended on other guitars. The usual advice… -
Altamira M01F
I have 3 nice Gypsy style guitars, a Dupont, a Cigano GJ 10, and an Altamira M01F. They are all beautiful guitars, even the CJ-10 which is made with inexpensive woods.

FS/FT: Bumgarner Derecho
Hello old friends, It looks as if my days of playing this style of music have come to an end. It's a combination of an injury (healed), regular gig ending after 15 years, and just wanting to spend some time on different things. That being said, I'm going to be putting my Bumgarner Derecho up for sale. I purchased it… -
