    The Godin guitars have an unmistakable tone. I have a Seagull S6 Original that I love and the wear on it proves it. I love it that they use wood grown on their own property. It's a strummer, not all that articulate, but it booms with a very rich sound.

    That's a beautiful sounding guitar, Doyle! It certainly sings but it's also being played by a master. Your picking, chord voicings and arrangements are outstanding. Too fast to pick up ideas but certainly appreciate your skills. Thanks for posting and love your new Godin. I have to check them out.

    My uncle Donnie used to ride the tour busses back in the days of the traveling gospel quartets. Doyle was in their group and my uncle said that all day ,and every waking hour Doyle had a guitar in his hands playing constantly. He is proof that the old proverbial saying that practice makes perfect rings true.

    Dear brother... It has been a beautiful surprise to see you at this time of the week and enjoy your music... your removers are wonderful and it's beautiful when you stop to show them and talk about them... Our economy prevents us from enjoying guitars of that quality! Big hug from Argentina... God bless you richly.

    Brother Doyle
    Greetings
    I'm commenting just to say hello.
    I haven't commented in a while. Life has been full and busy... loving God and loving people and Ministering With Music.
    What a joy to serve. Just saying I love you and your family, and to remind you that I faithfully pray for your whole "sphere" of life.
    Tell Mom I still want to take her to dinner.
    BTW I love love love my GOD-IN 5th Ave with Bigsby.
    You're my true like minded brother.
    I bet I've "forced" 1,000 Christian guitar pickers to subscribe to OUR wonderful Sunday String A Long.
    I love you so much my dear brother.
    Cliff
    When you think of it please pray for me. Confronted with some challenges but our faithful loving father will continue to deliver just as he has through all these years.
    Love you

    I have, and love, the all hog version of the fairmount. Was my first Godin and I love it so much I got a bass (Dorchester 4) very shortly after. I'm sure some will disagree but I think the all hog fairmounts compete with 000-15's (that are about double the price in Canada).

    I like your impromptu midweek short videos. Of course it's a treat for us to hear the guitar pickin but please don't feel that your Christian encouragement needs to be limited to Sundays.
    On Sundays it would be nice if you sometimes ended with some anointed picking. Just a thought.
    Many thanks!
