Scot,
I bought my first D-10 from your dad in January of 2011. I really appreciated him working with me and selling me such a great guitar for a reasonable price. He was a gentleman to work with and I enjoyed emailing back and forth with him.
I hope you and your family find peace and comfort in the loss of your dad. I am at the age where I have begun to see my friends bury their fathers more often. My dad is about the same age as your dad. With his rapidly declining health, I cherish the time we have left.
Tony

I thought of this song by Branded "When Did This Happen" after reading your post.

I bought the MSA Rosewood Mica D-10 8+4. I just sold it a few months back. Still has a lot of playing left on it. The Classics were built like a tank!
