Hi everyone....longtime lurker here

Hi all,
Just wanted to post my 1st to say hi and show some gear/builds.
I'm a full-time luthier/tech and own my own shop - Sharp Guitarworks LLC in Atlanta. Attended Roberto-Venn luthier school in Phoenix in '99.
Was tech/contractor in a few different Guitar Centers (don't judge me by this association-I'm actually competent!) Now on my own and loving it!

I build my own guitars and play an axe-fx (last 2 1/2 yrs-love it) and am a jazzer along the Bill Frisell/Ben Monder lines. I have a cd out on a small label ('06 release called Brilliant Shadows-on Ledge 7) and am working on a new one at home (learning pro tools).

I've learned a lot lurking around here and decided to give back a bit.

I'll post some guitpics when I figure out the posting system.

Thanks Scott, it was your early axe-fx reviews that convinced me to try it and man do I love it! My next cd should be axe only for guitars (prob. bass too!)

Welcome aboard - those are some really lovely guitars you've built there too...Are they for sale, or personal use?

Thanks, Cyberferret (great name) The brazillian/spruce w/ the offset soundhole is my most recent and my main axe. The black one is my old main and the amber maple/ funky shaped one was sold a while back. So nothing for sale currently as I'm focusing on the repair end and making my own music, but always looking to do more.
