Has anybody been out to Vegas and seen this place? It looks big, and he seems to think he has the best made guitars on the planet. Check out his web page. He has some interesting rants too. www.edromanguitars.com

Quote:Anyone? Ferris Bueller? Bueller?Rock don't you realize a discussion of musical instruments is ENTIRELY out of place on a music forum?! No, sorry, I rarely go to Vegas, never seen it. However if he really sell giutars that would be highly unusual, and worth a trip .

I've never been to Vegas but checked out the website. There are some pretty amazing guitars on the site. If you do go let us know if there are actually those guitars in his shop. If so, that would be a shop worth visiting!

I've never been there either. I have read good and bad comments about it on the net. And we all know you can believe it if it's on the net. I'd say, "Since it's in Vegas that's a good reason to go"I wanted to go to Vegas recently but since my body is like 97% liquid they wouldn't let me on a plane. I assured them it was mostly tequila but they didn't buy that.

And all luthiers make the best guitars [sic] just like we all write the best songs.

Thanks guys. I knew I could count on you to keep things real. I enjoyed reading this dude's rants, even if I didn't agree with him. I can see the advantages of having a custom guitar made to your own specs. It's just the price tag that bothers me. I guess if I did well at the gaming tables, I could afford to go check out the store. I love a quilted maple top.
