I’ve been obsessed with Harvester since I first laid eyes on them. So when Evan was selling #56 I sold off everything I could to make the dream real after almost 10 years. Pics when I evolve into the current era of ilf forum fun.

out da way gurl!
these are both really good choices. there were several guitar makers whose wares I was mackin' on two summers back, and now I can't find hardly any of their stuffs around/my brain is melted, so I'm looking for a new crush, especially since Chank stoled minez.
I guess I'll put in a word for Dr.K. in Montreal since he made me so very tenor happy this spring.
Pics later.

This. I even sought out Harvester guitars in Melbourne when I got to go to Australia. (Could not afford to bring one home then.)
My short list of other builders I’m into:
* Creston
* Waterslide
* Rojo (I want to get a “Joshmaster” built by them)
* Schorr
* Millimetric
* Serek basses

No, it's the B21, so many traditions broken

just awesome
and ok, I've decided that my "contribution" - my #1 luthier crush for now is Electravox Guitar Lab - I dig everything I've seen, but this thing is

and I actually could have afforded it if I hadn't been so squirrelly at the time:

Maan the latest design from Schorr is nuts! love Millimetric too.
Other builders i like that pop in my mind rn:
*Nudeguitars (Italy)
*Umaguitars (Belgium)
*TTTides (Luxembourg)
(but i know i will never grab one happen because they're all above my possibilities)

Yeah, dig the way the Schorr guitars look, but I still have some reservations about that external wiring.
