Knowing Gordon probably has the major guitar companies supply him with more guitars than he could ever wear out, I did wonder if he might want a Luthier build him a custom guitar?
I am a small builder in Virginia and work from home by appointment only. I haven't had the chance to build for a professional player yet but have had the chance to build for music lovers and players old and new.

He & Terry had custom guitars by a Canadian builder, but nostly he sticks to Martin & Gibson.

You are a luthier? I produced the documentary "The American Acoustic Guitar" some years back. I've also done some interviews in VA & NC with builders. Teaching video production in VA now.

To your question. Yes, I am a Luthier. I have been building instruments, primarily string for what some consider a long time. Over twenty years.
