Thanks for the welcome Larry.

Thanks for the welcome comment on my profile, Larry. Happy to be here
Hey Larry, thanks much for the welcome.
Hey Larry, I like your playing and your guitar building. Very nice
thanks for the friendship larry - some awesome builds you got going on
Thanks for the welcome! I got a CBG kit for christmas from the wife. I have been interested in building guitars my whole life and figure this should be a good kick start. I'm currently in the fact finding stage but hope to kick off when time allows. I checked out your pictures you do some beautiful work, man! I only hope I can come close to that. I'm sure I'll have tons of questions if you don't mind helping a noob. Anyhow thanks again!
Eric
