Many of you may know that I have a little custom string business, and I have been reflecting on a wise mans words who once said something like “I told myself I would do this while it was fun…” Well the stresses of customs are grinding my gears. As of this post I am out of the custom business, and will be producing in a series of runs only. Personally I feel it’s time I give a little more spot light to some of the newer up and comers. Thank you to my supporters I appreciate the reviews, and the good words. Peace out this Buddy is gonna go throw for a while. ---

If your sick of making strings, maybe it aint your thing. you might just need a break if the string gives you a head ache so get off that chair and throw, it doesn’t matter, fast or slow, yoyoing’s the best intermission for a busy string technician. :wink: ---
