I think this sort of leaked out before - but (the wheels of progress turn very slowly with big stars under big management) it is now official - I'm proud to say Toots Thielemans has officially endorsed the Ultimate Series microphones. Visit http://www.blowsmeaway.com/ultimate.html for some pics and a quote from Toots.
Quite a feather in you're cap, I'd say. I remember querying a music teacher of mine (great talent, played in Jack Teagarden's band in the thirties and some of the big bands in the forties) telling me in around 1963 that Mr. Thielemans was the only harmonica player he knew of who really had mastered his instrument....although I don't think he was an expert on harmonica players. He really turned my head playing background stuff on Sesame Street.
Well deserved! Greg is a model for how small business in this country should be run. Congrats my friend. ---------- "Life...10 Holes & 20 Reeds At A Time"
@PT...Yes...I always make it a point to patronize my local merchant. The term "local" has now changed, and I include Greg in that category now, you know, with the internet and all (I hope it's just not a fad that blows over). And he's not only a merchant, but a craftsman, too...somewhat like the Bottle 'O Blues guy and such, but pretty much high-end, cutting edge, and forthcoming with information, a social conscience, if you will. Barmaid, bring me...wait a minute. I'M the barmaid.
I also endorse all of Greg's products. I even use his cables. Greg is listed at the bottom of my bio page as well as on the Harmonica page of my website, which also has pictures and a description of the custom mic I acquired not too long ago. There is no "deal". I just think all of his products are brilliant. ---------- LSC
