Actually, I think that is no longer true. Jerry put out a new video last week he has over 60 instruments in his shop now and a huge waiting list that goes back two years. In addition he has three F-style mandolins that he has been commissioned to build. In fact that is tho only new business he is accepting now -- new builds. So I think he is done taking new repair jobs period for now? He was very apologetic bout it but the guy has to have a life. Too bad he is a genius at fixing things up.
