About JMB: I have a degree in design, and had two years

of weekly mentoring from Jimmy D'Aquisto's apprentice, Joseph Jesselli in my learning stages. Jesselli once told me;

"I showed you the least of anyone, and you went the furthest because you wanted it bad enough!"  

I posses a broad range of knowledge from tools to woods along with hands-on skills that compliment the guitar aspect of this craft. I love guitars and everything about them.  I appreciate and embrace anything made by hand via blood, sweat and tears.
