    i ordered a strat body from this guy a few years ago. i sent him a $100.00 down payment and never saw the guitar or the money. he didn’t call me back for weeks after several attempts to contact him, then when he finally answered his phone, he told me he was in the hospital and i’d have my body in a few weeks. never heard from him again, and he won’t return my calls or emails. can’t wait to make a trip to california so that i can visit this guy in person.

        But give the guy a break. A lot of people are out a lot of money with no explanation why until now. Ok so you’re his grandson.

      I know the guy at rolsguitars from yhe internet and he sent me an e-mail saying that he get’s his Edward Van Halen guitars from you.I just wanted to know if you could make me that same style neck that eddie has without the paint job,and how much about it would cost me to order that neck from you.By the way eddie van halen is my favorite guitar player and I can’t find nobody who can make that guitar, and when I found your web site I couldn’t believe it.What I’m trying to say is you do that guitar perfectand I hope to get that neck from you very soon.Thank you very much for taking time to read this I just want that neck so bad.Because I striped and painted my guitar just like his but I can’t find nobody who will make me that neck with that headstock.Thank’s again.
