I guess there's propably one or two around in the US, so they're rather hard to find 
there's frequently interest for these guitars in the US but Peter Schild is a quiet guy who doesn't make much fuss around his product.
I really wish he could present them at Dallas, but I doubt he'll do that.  |

While in Europe for a bicycle show, I met Peter Schild in the late 80's when (like me) he was building custom bicycle frames. If I recall correctly he was living in Bern then.
He's an interesting and talented guy, very serious about his craft(s). If you have any interest in a Schild, now's the time to order one. The Swiss franc is very low right now so his steels are a great deal in American bucks. I've never seen or played around with one, but I've no doubt they are stellar instruments. |

Every pic you see of Switzerland looks like this. Helluva lot nicer than Florida, but just TOO cold!
The Schild guitars look like they were made by NASA; precision beyond compare.
