They say a lot can happen on the last day of a crowdfund. This one ends TONIGHT May 20th, 2018 at 11:59 PST.
Dorothy and I will be up until 3:00 this morning EST (eastern standard time) to keep getting the word out, trying as best we can to reach our goal.

Please visit the campaign https://igg.me/at/eatapeach and consider owning a piece of this guitar, getting your name on the plaque at the Allman Brothers Big House Museum, and getting one of our cool perks.

Basically, I'm a craftsman and I made this instrument and others as well. Woodworking is my livelihood and my shop carries all the expenses of a business. Making guitars is not a hobby. For me to justify using my time building instruments means there has to be a return on the time and materials invested.

This crowdfund is a way of honoring that and if I reach my goal, I get to dive right in on my next batch of three instruments, and in so doing, building a stronger body of work. If not, then I pursue the more ordinary projects that pay the bills. Will you help push me into being a full-time guitar maker?

...and the Big House Museum is an extremely cool place and I couldn't be happier that the Eat a Peach guitar will live there, to be displayed, and played by many. I hope you go to Macon to see for yourself! Go to Indiegogo and search Eat a Peach. Thanks all! Jim

Dorothy has been working on a very cool animation for the crowdfund and we plan to get it posted this afternoon. Here's the link to the campaign page again-
