I'd love to come, but it's Easter and my family seems to have other plans than letting me drive the 50 or so kilometers to Lier for the Festival.James Lister wrote:Heading off to Belgium early tomorrow morning. Guitars are ready - just need to get myself together...
If anyone here is planning to go - do drop by my stand and say hello!

Thanks!Monteverde wrote:That is very exciting, James -- a great achievement. Thanks to you for being at the forefront in using non-tropical woods and to Marcin Dylla for supporting your work (and that of the LGRP) by featuring your exceptionally beautiful guitar in concert.
If you can produce as much good publicity as Marcin - I'll consider it!zupfgeiger wrote:BTW: gorgeous maple guitar, your No 100, James. May I loan it as well for a year or two?
Congratulations. Having a top guitarist like Marcin playing ones guitar in a major performance must be any luthier's dreamJames Lister wrote:FB_IMG_1492340911460.jpg
Marcin playing my guitar last night. It's always a treat to hear him play, but hearing him play on one of my guitars made it very special.
He had been persuaded to play two other guitars by Luthiers at the festival in the second half, so only played mine for the first half, but the guitar came over very well, and I've had lots of positive feedback today.
If course, most of the credit should go to the player rather than the Luthier.![]()

Congrats, James. I think that half a session with Mr. Dylla is better than heap of praises from us mortals.James Lister wrote:FB_IMG_1492340911460.jpg
