Fall, 2012 at Finkelpearl Guitars!
Hello Sublime Backers...!!
A quick update to let you know we're still rockin' and reelin' and dancing on the ceiling behind the scenes here in the Finkelpearl Guitars world HQ. Premium development is well underway. The logo (tee shirt) design is done. The pick design is done. And the poster design is currently receiving its finishing touches. This is all due to the hard work and vision of one of the best graphic designers I've ever had the pleasure to know, Mr. Marc Harkness. You've seen Marc's work on album covers from James McMurtry to Billy Joe Shaver and even the Man in Black himself, Johnny Cash. Mark's blog is here:

Down the hall, around the corner, and up the hill we have the website department and they are frantically working away to get finkelpearlguitars.com live in time for the holiday season. That's being led by Senior Vice President for Fuzz and Overdrive, Mr. Jeromy Darling. You know me, I love to surround myself with talented people and watch them excel. Jeromy is no exception to that rule and you can find his cool vision and great aesthetic here: http://jeromydarling.com
We've got a press release written that includes the thoughts of the great Mary Timony, a guitar player and songwriter seething with ridiculous amounts of talent. She recently sat with a VectorJetCG on her lap for a long weekend and emerged to say: "This guitar is super fun to play. The neck feels great and I love the sound of the pickups together. Added bonus: It looks totally rad. It's a favorite." Thanks, Mary!! YOU are totally rad. You can learn about Mary's band, Wild Flag, here (and if you have not seen them live yet, run, don't walk, if they come to your town:

Okay, back into the chemistry lab I go, trying to stir up exactly the right mojo to make Finkelpearl Guitars rock straight out of the box. Thanks to ALL of you again for your support and continued energy and enthusiasm. More anon......
