Subject: RE: Canadian-made Guitars - opinions please?
Yep, I have played a Reid before and I must tell you that he makes a wonderful instrument.

A Laskin, eh? Harvey, you have a wonderful instrument there. Rick, Jed and I went to Grit's shop and I just stood there dumbstruck at his work. That man is truly an artist. I didn't give any of them a real workout but I did manage to play a bit on Stan Rogers Laskin 12 string. Wunnerful, wunnerful. Paul Mills has that guitar. Jed stayed at Paul's house while he was recording his latest CD. (If you don't have it yet, you need to get it, folks) He tells of laying there at night, with Stan's 12 within reach, sometimes he would just have to reach out and play it.

Daylia, if you happen to have an extra $6,000 to $8,000 laying around, you would love a Laskin.
