Update from the Shishkov Shop

[gorch]

I am hoping for a personalized leather book, with a unique story about each guitar, handwritten in fountain pen.

You'll keep that one about as long as it takes you to flip through that leather book.

I don't want the guitar, just the book.

You'd flip the guitar anyway, don't ya?

It's great to have friends in New Hartford to help make custom spacers/inserts!!!

Next step is to take headstocks to the final thickness.

Careful with those fingers, Mike!

It`s so nice to see the progress.

Out of coriousity; how many of the initial run is going abroad?

One for Norway, that`s for sure

I'd love to see a video tour of the shop. What's the beast with the number '74' sticker on it?

Must be a great sense of accomplishment there, as these inanimate pieces strategically come together to create artfully crafted and beautiful instruments of music. So happy to see Mike doing what he does so well.

It's a metalworking lathe.

I have a suggestion, for all those who want photos from beginning to end, send Mike $250.00 so that he can arrange for the pictures to be taken and he can be compensated for the loss of time in production.

Or save the $250 to use for a down payment on another Shishkov. An extra guitar would make up for the lack of pictures.

Well, it would for me.

I'm with ya, lets just leave the guy alone so he can finish guitars.

You guys wanna know what I want to see? My badass Ultimate being delivered!!!! Let the man do what he obviously does best---create our guitars!!

[hamerhead]

Let's velcro one of those GoPro cameras to his forehead. Then we can see everything he does. In real time.
