A new batch of Wilkie 18” and 17” archtops. Two each of his Atlas and Paramount models.
“Amazing guitars. One of the finest luthiers on the scene today. Works of art while being highly functional as top level working jazz guitars.”

Makes me happy to see a local boy getting his due. Ludwig and Cherry make very good company.
Thanks for posting!

Looks like he's about 2 1/2 hours from where I live. Not exactly a day trip for me these days, but we love it up in there. So yeah, rolled into a weekend trip he's totally visitable.

Well that's exciting! Congratulations on the commission. I look forward to seeing your new guitar around here!
You could build a very nice vacation around that trip. The Olympic Peninsula has a lot to offer, and the trip on the Good Ship Coho from Port Angeles to Victoria is beautiful. Cumberland is a cool tiny town, and Hornby Island is very special. Both close to Wyatt.
Run back thru Vancouver. Maybe enjoy the San Juans for a bit. Or reverse the circle if you like. Let's have a beer if you come thru Victoria. Hopefully on your way back home so's I can see a Wilkie in person!!
Sincerely,
Charles
