I couldn't find this info using SGF search, but Elva West, maker of Tradewind Steel Guitars in Santa Ana, passed peacefully on Dec. 7, 2017, at age 90. I visited him at his home years ago, super nice gentleman, his guitars are great! Apologies if this has already been posted.

I'm glad to hear you have fond memories of visiting him and his guitars! |
