      He's built your new house. And he's waiting for you there. Sitting on the porch with his guitar. To play you some beautiful new stuff he's learned.
      Everything happens for a reason. And when you get there, he'll be right there waiting. So don't be sad. He doesn't want to look down and see you sad. So smile for him. Smile because you know you'll see him again! I love you Patricia. And that love will get you home to your husband.

I suspect what you meant to say is " it is a version of Marcin.s version" And maybe it is true, but we would need to ask him what inspired him, was it Marcin who inspired him, or was it the guitar, the original artist, or a combination of two or more of the three.

    Thanks, virtuoso guys, for letting us share your joy in great luthiers’ art. Especially the end, with the acoustic guitar you all loved. Me, too - We used to call them Hummingbirds. People like you (and Renaissance composers long before us), are why I “graduated” to the guitar, when time constraints made me put aside my fiddle, for lack of practice. At 73, my fingers are now too stiff to perform, but I still keep my old Silvertone in tune, and occasionally pull it out for a few chords, riffs, and memories.

    I think that was about the MOST fun I've ever had watching a few masters dink around, learn something new, play some vintage craft and better yet - share it with us lowly serfs who play guitar and admire the players. While we play guitar, these guys are guitar players and for those who don't know the difference, finding out would be a huge step upward in your library of understanding and appreciation of the art. That was most excellent. I could only imagine an entire afternoon of this dreamscape and will often reflect on this very moment as i humble myself again. Thank you fellas ! A heartfelt thanks !

I'm a guitarist, I'm an engineer, I have a slew of guitars, so, I'm gonna be on the drawing board and take one of my guitars and make myself a b- bender.

      I guess I'm fortunate, if not outright spoiled; I've had the pleasure of knowing a really good guitar player in Nassau County NY since 1976, who has a Telecaster with a B-bender in it. About 6 years ago, I stepped into a place where he and his brother were playing acoustic (Martin) guitars. With my back to them, what a pleasing shock when I heard B-bender notes coming from one of the acoustics! Good luck on your engineering project. It's a very nice addition to a guitar, but the added weight of the B-bender apparatus is especially noticeable in an acoustic guitar.
