To the Guy for Whom I made the Texas Longhorn

http://smokehouseguitars.com/blognewsroll/?p=3343

Hey, I hope you are well.  It has been a long time since I heard from you.  I’ve tried to send you a few e-mails now but haven’t heard anything back.  I don’t know if you’re just in a spot where you can’t get them, if you have a new e-mail address, or what.  I know that your physical address has changed as you moved the last time I talked with you and you didn’t send me your new info.

This is my last ditch effort to try and get in touch with you.  If I can’t get in contact with you, I have to put this guitar up for sale and move it.  I really hope to hear from you.  I made this thing specifically for you according to your specs and it would really hurt to see it go to someone else.  I’ll give it some more time but I need to move this thing eventually.

Here’s hoping.

Josh

I wanna give this guy an honest chance to contact me.  If I don't hear from him in a few more days, this guitar goes on the block.  Thanks for your interest.

When the time comes, I'll put a notice on my site that it's for sale along with price and then post an update here in the forum devoted to sales and trades.
