Thank you, Joe, for your unwavering commitment and for leaving an indelible mark on Elderly Instruments.
Congrats on your retirement Joe, and that’s for all the great information and entertainment! Hopefully we’ll see more In The shop from your home shop.
Congrats to Joe! I’m still enjoying my HD-28 and banjitar I got from you folks a while back. 👍🏽
What a great tribute to Joe and all in the Elderly repair shop. You all have taken such great care of my instruments for years now and I am so very grateful. Cant wait to see your new projects Joe.
Best wishes to you, and to everyone at Elderly for the US Chamber award!
Thank you! ❤️🎶
As a woodworker and a guitar player, I always put my level of respect for you and the whole crew one notch above brain surgeons. Loved the videos. Sleep in, then drink coffee and get back into the guitars.
Thanks, Dan!
We love you Steve
End of an era. Congrats, Joe. Elderly is an institution, and you're a big part of that.
Blessings in your retirement! You seem like a real gentleman. Skillful and patient.
Enjoy your retirement! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills with everyone!
Best of luck to you Joe in your next chapter!!!
Have enjoyed your share of knowledge and techniques immensely!!!
Are you going to have a UA-cam presence …?
That's the plan! We'll do our best to let the Elderly audience know what Joe does next.
Congratulations Joe.. It was great working with you over the years. You always were the foremost top level dedicated repair/Luthier/craftsman I had ever encountered. I am happy that you retired after 37 years...I am interested in your new venture and would be quite interested in a Pre War Konkoly D18 similar to the one I bought many years ago...I know the emotional feeling you are experiencing as I retired from National Steel Corp. and US Steel Corp. after 42 years of service and totally enjoy retirement.
You probably worked on my Galloup L-00, congratulations on an amazing career and good fortune in your post Elderly endeavors!
Thanks for trusting our team with your guitar, and thank you for the kind words! ❤️🎶
Joe, thanks so much for sharing your experience, skills, and wisdom with us through this forum. It was always enlightening and entertaining. Best of luck in retirement and your new adventures in life!
I moved from Michigan to California 40 years ago, and had always heard of Elderly from my acoustic guitar friends, in the recent years I started hearing about your store from people outside of MI. Last year I had my first opportunity to visit and purchase some things while I was on vacation. I just have to say Michigan has a real treasure in your store, and from the looks of your repair shop you guys are awesome, I only wish I lived closer...
You killed it on my acoustic last year, Joe. Thanks again. Good luck to you!
❤
Congrats to Joe on your well deserved retirement!
