Hi Dave,

I've got an amazing, high quality boutique guitar that I'm wondering if Robben would be willing to try sometime? Does Robben ever try out custom guitars just to give an opinion?

I took this guitar to a few of my session player friends in Nashville and had an incredibly positive response from it. When I asked Brent Mason if he'd try it out he told me he rarely likes anything that is brought to him -- I told him, fine, if you hate it, I would like to know. He ended up recording with it the day he tried it -- his words were "what's not to like about it? Roll tape."

Phil Keaggy recorded with it and expressed that he really liked it, Johnny Hiland said he loved it and major session player Tom Hemby will be endorsing it. That's a pretty nice response from some very picky players (pardon the pun).

Just wanted to get your thoughts on it. Thank you!

Thanks Phil. I see you're from Campbell - cool! I grew up in San Jose. Went to City College with Chris Cain.

Great playing, stay in touch!
Michael
