View from the Highway

Hello Sled Dog friends and family! I'm out here in Ontario moving onto the second of my summer festivals. The weather has been wonderful out here with highs in the mid 20s and nice cool nights. I have a mild sunburn but otherwise am doing great.

At the first festival I played I noticed alot of different guitars among the musicians. There was an Alan Beardsell. If you remember we had one of his hanging in the shop not too long ago. They're amazing guitars. One artist was carrying around the Blueridge BR140. Of course you know that we think he has excellent taste. Plenty of Larrivees were seen and a few Gibson and Martins. It is interesting to hear what people say about their guitars. One artist I talked with was drooling over the Beardsell guitar while yet another wanted to upgrade his Larrivee to a upper level model. Still another was hoping to buy a handmade guitar from a local luthier named Richard Harvey. It just goes to show you that no one guitar will suit everybody. That is why we are on the lookout for great guitars all the time. Because we want to have what you need when you're looking for it.

I'm off to another festival today and will check in again later on. For now that is the view from the highway.
