THIS IS THE 25th ANNIVERSARY YEAR FOR THE LES PAUL FORUM! PLEASE CELEBRATE WITH US AND SUPPORT US WITH A DONATION TO KEEP US GOING!
We've made a large financial investment to convert the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and recently moved to a new hosting platform. We also have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
Please support our Les Paul Forum Sponsors with your business - Gary's Classic Guitars, Wildwood Guitars, Chicago Music Exchange, Reverb.com, Throbak.com and True Vintage Guitar. From personal experience doing business with all of them, they are first class organizations. Thank you!
I have heard about his rapid decline and respected his wishes for privacy. I owned a HM and was visited his facility several times. He was the consummate guitar geek- he repaired Keef's Exile burst for goodness sake- and the HM plant was continuously improved.
He always took time and was a great friend (and Christian)- he never said the word but it was obvious in his conduct.
Ahhh my friend- I hurt for your family. I was glad to have heard you tearing it up with your boys- you tried so hard to push through it.
Well done-
Your friend
Jim
