Hi,
I've tried to send an e-mail to Gary Swallow to get him to make me a custom bar, but I haven't heard anything from him. Do anyone here know if he's still in business? I hope he is, because I would love to try one of his bars.

------------------
Cheers,

Hi Oystein,
I too have tried to email Gary several times. I have had a custom bar commissioned since March this year. It would be good to find out if everything is ok with Gary.
Cheers
Alan

Hi Oystein,
I too have tried to email Gary several times. I have had a custom bar commissioned since March this year. It would be good to find out if everything is ok with Gary as I live in Australia, so it is a little hard to establish communication.
Cheers

Gary is still around. It took about 1 1/2 years to get mine. They are worth the wait.

Keep the faith. He will answer you sooner or later and get the information he needs. then one day you will get home and have a nice surprise in your mail.

I like mine. I had him make a round end on one side and sharp angle on the other. It is a little hard for reverse slants but otherwise a very nice bar.

I ordered one about a year and a half ago and last year he asked for my finger measurements. That was the last I heard.

Thanks guys!
I'll try to "keep the faith"! I suppose it's like they say; he who waits for something good, etc...

Hope he'll give me some response soon!
