NONE ARE REISSUES 😳

We had such a nice day, chatting about guitars with friends old and new, and of course trying out these beauties! Thanks to @dlott65 for organizing this annual event, plus @bartlettguitars (and family) for stepping in to host when our regular venue (founding father @chriswstringer8 's Union Sound Studios, Toronto) wasn't available.
