Hello Jeff,
I purchased your Identity Acute fingerstyle guitar a couple of weeks ago,and
since I have been playing it nearly everyday with new strings, it is
"breaking in" like no other acoustic I have ever heard or owned. I own many
acoustics including Martin, Gibson, Lowden, Langejeans, to name a few, but
your amazing, revolutionary guitar is already right there in sonic tone with
my best guitars!!
I plan to buy a Spider next, and when I can afford it, maybe order a custom
from you someday. Thank you for all of the hard work, time, and research
that you incorporated into creating such an extraordinary and superbly
designed guitar. You are definitely far ahead of your time, but I did read
that at least Martin is listening to you a little and is going to use your
adjustable neck on a model.
A couple of my guitar playin friends are thinking about buying one of your
guitars,because they love playing mine so much, so I will continue to pass
the word.
Thank you and best wishes to you, your family, and your work,
— Larry Dixon (Dallas, TX)
"I don't know where to begin talking about this guitar-well, for one thing, it sings so joyously, in such a carefree and enthusiastic manner, in all three ranges-the trebles ringing out sound absolutely angelic; and the low-end has such substance and clarity, such depth and presence, that it is positively bewitching! And that's before I even plugged in! …………it's got both the ballsy fuzziness (or call it distortion, whatever;) and the bite ('clarity') that makes me want to say: 'here it is (at last!) . . . now, this is a sound I can use forever . . . . . .. the aesthetic impact is stunning! From the breathtaking high-gloss translucent-blue-finished flame-maple top, to the highly-polished mahogany back and sides, to the hardware fittings, to the tasteful f-hole, and the contrasting satin finish on the back & sides of the neck…. . . . I could go on & on.
Add in the innovations: lateral compression soundboard-effect (& the related effect of lightening the string-tension); torque-reducing split-bridge (rosewood, beautiful, and in itself, a work of art); continually-adjustable neck.
And then address the lightning-fast and effortless action of this neck/fretboard combination! This guitar is a sheer pleasure to play!
This is an axe I'm going to be writing songs on . . . for a long time to come . . .
……… I am astounded, and of course, eternally grateful . . ."

"Hey Jeff, I got the guitar today. awesome, simply amazing sound. It's exactly what I was looking for, the bottom end of the Martins with just the right amount of shimmer and mid punch that you get out of the hi end Taylors……. I must have played 50 guitars before I got yours and none compared…… thank God I stumbled across your company. I'm still blown away by the neck adjustability……(the) sound is amazing, you really nailed what I love in an acoustic…… it's so loud and crisp and bass rich with out being boomy. Nice work!"

"Hi there,
Thank you! Wow, I am really happy!
I love the idea of a 30 day "Test Drive," but I didn't even need 30 seconds. After strumming the Babicz three times, I told my daughter, "There is NO-WAY I'm giving this thing up!" You've made the transition from my "old" guitar of 23 years not only painless, but downright wonderful! The reaction from all of my fellow guitar friends has been very positive. They are all very impressed, and more than slightly jealous.
Sincerely,"

"Guys, THANKS for the great guitar (a finger style small jumbo). It is fabulous. So far everyone who hears it is so impressed with the tone and quality of sound as well as the technical innovations. My fingers are staying sore because I am playing every chance I get. I also really appreciate the personal service you provide."
— Tim Mathis
"Thanks to both you and Jeff B. for making such a great instrument and sticking with it. Marketing can be tough but your product will sell itself. I will do all I can to promote your guitars because I believe they are in a class by themselves. I look forward to sending business your way."
— Charles Taylor
"What a beautiful instrument, and it plays like a dream. I will be playing all weekend, I'm sure (my wife is out of town).
Later,"
