Cool pics. Thanks for sharing them. It looks like the booth layout was successful.

Yes, the booth has been a big hit.

It really stood out at this event as most of the exhibitors just set their guitars on stands on top of tables.

I think I will get another background banner printed for the next show, whenever that may be...just something to change it up a bit.

Leo Binetti is the latest artist to join the Lowe Custom Guitars family. 

This photo was taken well before the lockdown. 

I look forward to seeing him play with Joe Sanders and Royse Bassham in Umbra Luna again one day soon.

The graphic on the Paradise Teeluxe has been block-sanded to 220, the headstock is hand-painted, and it's heading into final paint.

This will be smooth as glass when I get it back.

The study I sent in with the last batch is proof of that.

I'm dropping this off and picking up a bunch of other stuff at the same time.

It's good to be moving forward again.

It's been a quiet summer, but things are getting interesting.

The old place in Oldsmar is sold and the new place in Odessa is under construction.

Life is good.

So much for 'Odessa, TX, ranking among the worst places to live in America'. That's a really nice view!

Thanks!

This is Odessa, FL...so perhaps TX still holds that distinction?

:D

It's time...some new builds are in the pipeline.

Thanks to Morrell Roberts at Moe Colors!

Haha. It did cross my mind that the landscaped looked amazingly green and wet for West Texas.
Really cool headstocks, I like all three designs very much.
