Here's another one. Part of the video got cut off.
Got to meet Paul last night at a jam hosted by my band leader. First, heck of a nice guy and a GREAT player. But you all know that, let's get to the guitars. The natural one is easily one of the finest guitars I've played. If the neck shape was a bit more suited to my hand, and I had the money, it would have been close to impossible to not take it home with me. The other player loved that one too, and the tone listening back was really great.
The Blue one has this incredible projection that as a player, I've haven't heard from one of these guitars without a sound port.
It's obvious that Paul isn't just some guy building guitars without knowing what he's doing. These are pro level instruments that I think any player in this genre would love. Built very well, great fret work, the woodwork is as good as I've seen. Someone needs to really consider one of Paul's guitars if they're looking for a luthier built instrument.
Great to finally meet you last night @paulmcevoy75, it was a blast!
Well shucks man. Thank you! It was awesome meeting you. If anyone is trying to escape rising real estate prices and climate change, it might be that Rochester is the gypsy jazz hideaway.
Dennis Chang posted a video. He grabbed my guitar to play rhythm, it was pretty sweet.
Rochester is this gem of a city. We absolutely have our problems, but I left here when I was 19 and came back at 32. I never planned or wanted to be back here, but it was the best decision we could have made. Hope you make the move Paul, we'd love to have you here!
We should start planning now for a forum hangout during the DiJ '26. Hit Northampton brewery for a few pints.
Looking at this thread there were a lot of people from this forum who I didn't meet, hang or play with and still really don't know who they are. A forum hang is a good idea.

I had the same experience! I knew when I met Paul because I recognized his guitars. I’m betting I met @theholyrollers because it sounds like we were in some of the same classes and jams, I just didn’t connect their real name with the forum name.
