I've seen several 'warm amd fuzzy' posts here and thought I would share one.

I've posted several times here about playing the guitar, and hanging out on some guitar forums, and about whether or not guitars and/or amps would fit into this or that trailer for the Prowler.

Well, Joe Driskell is a high end guitar builder in Texas. He posts on most guitar forums as Diablo (one of the model names in the Driskill line).

Check out this thread about a guitar he made for a disabled man who would only be able to use his mouth to operate a guitar. The time and effort he put in to this project boggles my mind.

Be sure to check out the link below and once there be sure to click on the link inside for pictures of the guitar. Some of you machinists and gear heads will certainly appreciate Joe's talents.

I'm about as mechanically inclined as wet paint, but I do have an appreciation for beautiful guitars. This is clearly the work of someone who has a passion for their craft. Angels come in many manifestations...

Very nice work. I also play and have 6 nice guitars and serveral amps to match the properties of each. Not sure if I can improve on the martin hd28 unless I mike it, but I know how much practice and how hard it is with no challenges to learn and play.

Thought I put this in 'Off Topic'...

Sorry about that!
