Hello all,
Good news! Gary Rittenberry is done with his surgeries and is fully recovered and is building his wonderful guitars again. He said he is taking orders and is running full bore to get existing orders completed.
He was even kind enough to lift his "SD-10 only" sanction long enough to build me a D-10 Prestige sometime this year.

Welcome back Gary, we are glad you are in the shop again!

This makes we wonder why Gary didn't post this himself?
Maybe after he sees my response he will respond.

Hi Dale I had my good friend Tommy Minniear who designed and built my website and maintains it also to post it on the homepage of my website. and then Jim called me yesterday and ask me if it would be ok to post something on the forum and I said that would be fine as i am busy restocking parts,as I did not know what the outcome was going to be and offered to send deposits back to people who had guitars on order and they said that they would wait to see how things turned out.So now i am ordering parts to do those guitars.

Well there you have It, straight from Gary! He's back and restocking parts so he back in the game. That means I'm back in and god is good.! I also wanted to explain why when a Rittenberry guitar comes up for sale at a reasonable price, key word "reasonable", I will try to buy it That's just me! Let's thank god that Gary is on the mend and taking orders again.
It was not my intention to offend anyone, especially Gary, If I did, I certainly apologize!
