"Our guitars have met with the
approval of many famous, world-class
players and collectors. I invite you to be
next. I build guitars to help you create
music you love to share with others.
These instruments will be played
beyond our lifetimes and we are
stewards of them. This is the definition
of heirloom quality. I wish to leave a
legacy for future players. " -Denis Merrill

"You have to give people something to
dream on." -Jimi Hendrix, 1970

"Guitarmen, wake up and pluck wire
for sound, let 'em hear you play."
-Charlie Christian, 1939.

"The electric guitar was vital in helping
what I've acheived... Where would I be
without it? Playing awfully quietly, for a
start." -Keith Richards, 1992.
