Jody....patients is a virue...so my doctor says....
I'm in the process of working on the images. I realize that I'm known for my put - ons and light hearted posts. This is not one of them.....this is no Ponzie scheme or "lucky 7" routine.
I will soon be posting images of a resophonic guitar unlike any that you have ever seen. |

Phoenix: Phoe = fee. nix = none. No fee. A free resoguit? Yeah, I think I've got this just about figured out. Next case.
But in the event that I just might be wrong (and although that's never happened before, I've got a small hunch that you've got something serious cooking here, Howard), my belt's fastened and I'm all eyes. (But unlike Jody, I am getting younger. Clean living ((yeah, right)). |

Howard, I have a "Phoenix Cruiser" mini motor home. Is it going to have 4 wheels like mine?
Phyllis just saw your post & said if it looks better than her Madagascar with all the gold engraving - look out.
Do you have pictures yet? If so,let's have a sneak preview. Larry |

Wheels?, some of you say? Interesting.
I'm not at home right now and the computer where I am doesn't have a decent photo program so I can't correct or enhance the images to do this guitar justice. I do have one photo here that looks good and so I'll post it just to wake Jeff up
Larry, Phyllis's guitar is the most beautiful resophonic that I have ever seen...bar none! Sorry for the pun...that Madagascar with gold appointments is breath taking. The grain and beauty of that wood is amazing. "The Phoenix" is a very different guitar and it is a real beauty, but for other reasons. It would be like comparing an apple to plum. |

We're gonna need some stripper music. Yeah, she's got a beautiful head. And she's showing a bit of neck and I can see that there's no wattle there. Seven strings. A bit exotic. So far so good. Now I'm sure fantasizing about the body. What a tease!  |

Jeff,....this WAS a dream in my head for a few years. Today, with all credit due to Carroll Benoit, my fantasy has become a reality. There's no point of me attempting to describe this masterpiece of a guitar with words. Tomorrow when I return home, I promise, and my word is my bond, that I will begin to post the photos. I also promise that you will be in awe.
Jody the Fender Fairy? Since when did he trade in his cowboy shirt for a tu tu and magic wand? Pluck your magic twanger Jody! |

KOWABUNGA FROGGIE - Nice Head What are you doing up at 6:30A.M.? Looks like Benoit outdid himself again (as much as you've shown). Is that a curley maple fretboard? Can't quite tell by the neck & head shot.
Enough teasing - you got me locked in.
Are you home yet???? What's taking you so long??????????????????? |
