I am think of treating myself to a week of guitar camp. I recieved an advertisement from NGW. Has anybody attend one of these workshops? Does anybody have an alternative suggestion.

I keep threatening to go to the Fur Peace Ranch guitar camp someday. I think it would be fun.

It must be good, its booked for the entire year already. (Atleast the workshops I would be interested in.) Thanks for the info. Maybe I can look at it for next year.

I have been going to the FUR PEACE RANCH for the last 7 years. It is pure nirvana. Here are two links to my journals from the last two visits to the Ranch.

I have always wanted to do FPR. It seems like it would be a very memorable experience. Someday.

Paul,
Clicked on your ling to the 2004 journal. Good job. I could not stop reading it. It was almost like I was there right with you. Thanks for taking the time and also for sharing with us. You're one of the lucky ones.

Thanks Eiko! Glad you enjoyed it. Two of the Collings hilights were Jorma Kaukonen and GE smith playing my guitar and passing it back and forth and talking about what a great guitar it is. The other was during the student performance last year when GE told me how much he loved the tone on my guitar and that it really "Cut through."

There are a lot of players there who love Collings and bring them with them.

If you get a chance to go to the FPR you should. It is a very special place.

Paul
