and from this mudcat thread, a message from Paul Richardson :

"Message posted here from Paul Richardson, the originator of the Fingerbone brand of guitars.

http://www.guitarsite.com/database/Guitars/rec/5246/wwwboard/messages/163.shtml

Paul Richardson explicitly states he sold the company to Mark Hammock

Mark Hammock IS Antonio Lamaq. They are one and the same so don't be fooled by Mr Hammock telling the world he was christened Antonio
Lamaq"

this message, posted in june of '09 is also looking for a guitar for Paul's son..

I hope they have found one, or soon will.
what identifying factors will assure that the instrument was made
during the time that Paul made them, not the successor?
serial numbers? dates?
