Quote from Scott Sheldon:
“My guitars are all handmade by me from old stock woods. No computers are used. I make very few guitars a year, less than a dozen and each one is a labor of love. I use all pre-ban old growth woods like old AAA Figured maple and rosewoods and old Honduran Mahogany that was harvested back in the 40s and 50s. Each of my guitars is built in exactly the same manner and process they did back in the 1950s, all by hand-made by me.”
