Hi Kevin,

I can't praise you enough.  The new Cathedral is a sonic masterpiece.  I don't think there is a better guitar in the entire world.  Every time I pick it up to play, I am literally taken aback by the power and clarity.  I will come back to it knowing it sounds perfect, but I still jump when I play that first note.  You just don't expect a guitar to be that powerful.  It vibrates through my body like no other guitar ever has.  I play way more than usual because the sound is so pure and perfect.  It is so pleasing to hear, and I swear that it makes me a better player.  I know no other guitar ever did that for me!  I have taken it to a few different homes and rooms to play, and it sounds good in any and every environment.  It will overpower a room with bad acoustics, and stand on its' own.  The workmanship is the best...a standard feature of your guitars, but this Cathedral is truly flawless in its' tone.  All of the elements came together on this one to make it one in a million for sound.  I just knew when I picked out that Brazilian at your shop, that it would be "The" set. 

It saddens me that more players don't see the tonal advantages of the Cathedral's larger size.  There is no comfort issue now that you have the beveled edge.  I am so glad to own this guitar, and that I had the sense to buck the trend to play smaller bodied guitars.  Even more important is the fact that you had the vision to produce such a phenomenal sounding instrument.  I thank God that you possess the amazing talent to design and build what you dream of...the perfect guitar.  My Cathedral is proof of that.  If you ever have a client on the fence about whether to go with the Cathedral, feel free to have them contact me.  This guitar can make anyone a believer!

Please let everyone in the shop know how I feel.  They deserve mega praise too!

You all have been so good to me, and I do feel like a Ryan family member.  That means a lot to me.

All my best,
