I don't think I ever introduced myself......
« on: November 10, 2012, 03:39:03 PM »
I'm from the beautiful Pacific Northwest.  I manage a locally owned acoustic guitar shop.  I'm not here to represent my store, just here because I love acoustic guitars and enjoy connecting with other people who feel the same.

We have spent several summers in the PNW... beautiful weather.  And, umm... lots of indoor guitar playing time during the winter.  ;)

Welcome aboard!

Welcome!  It is great to have on the forum.  Tell us about your store.

Thank you! 

I work for Portland Music Company and have for more than 20 years.  The company has been in business since 1927 and continues to be independently owned.  The owner is a good dude.  My store is all acoustic instruments and we have a really wonderful selection of guitars.  I absolutely love the location that I manage.  It's in a great neighborhood and we have some of the nicest customers around.

I've heard of him but don't know him.  I would definitely love to visit his shop sometime, though!

I am on his waiting list for a uke - I was thinking all koa but that picture of SF's myrtlewood has got me thinking.  Oh well, he's backed up so I have awhile to think about it.

Check him out here:  http://donaldsonukuleles.com/

And here is the uke I was thinking of (hoping he picks up some more nice koa):  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTNcw9SKn5I
