Jerry Fessenden does not seem to know who I should contact to try one of these things that are getting so much praise lately.

Isn't Jimbeaux Cohen in Philly? He's a Fessy guy.

Sure, if you fancy a drive up to Philly, I'll be glad to let you try out mine.

Thanks a lot. Do you have more than one Fessenden? Like one with a wood neck and one with an aluminum neck or one with humbucker and one with a true tone. I wonder because I would be keen on comparing the various subtleties of these features. Let me know what times of the week/ day/ month are usually good for you and I will try to find a second reason to be in Philly like catch a concert or go to a music store that I would no normally see. I appreciate the offer.

Sorry, no, I only have one: aluminum neck, TruTone pickups. But if you're willing to travel to Nashville, as your initial post suggests, you might find a few different ones to try out at Bobbe Seymour's place. That might be your best bet.

Hey Whit,
My personal guitar at the present time is a D-10 Fessenden, 07' model. 8 & 5, emmons set up with George L 10-1's. This particular guitar also has the Tommy Young mod added. I've had several Fessy's thru my steel shop and not a single one failed to meet specs. Jerry Fessenden builds a great guitar, as do several other builders but if it's a Fessy you want then just give me a call at 601-752-2037 and we can talk in detail about Fessy's. Thanks.
