The old adage, which proclaims, "It is better to give, than to receive", is true! How do I know this?
Well, read the response from Brittany Saulsberry (a US Navy Corpsman stationed at Bastion Hospital in Afghanistan), which I received recently thanking me for making a guitar for her, and look at her photo . . . the question will answer itself.
I was very busy building other guitars and amps when Brittany asked for a guitar, so I promised her one, which I had made for my personal collection. She enthusiastically said, "Yes". I was relieved to be able to get something to her soon, and she was happy, too. Read her response.
Hello Jess,
I got it finally. I got it right when I made it back to the other base, coming from Chapel . . . I was so excited. When I get on my own computer, I will email you pictures of me opening it and playing.
A British officer already taught me a twelve bar. He said that after a few times he is going to add in more for the song.
Thank you so much, and thank you for being kind while I was sick (I wished her well when she was ill), I feel so much better and I have not stopped smiling.
I'm going to see if the shop personnel could make me a case for the guitar.
Well, you have a blessed night, and I will talk to you later.
Respectfully yours,
Hm3 Saulsberry
