Linko Numero Uno, Linkus Primeribus:
After years of prodding, cajoling and convincing by those around him, reclusive genius Texas Hill Country wood artist (and my woodworking guru) Uncle Johnny Kirtland has launched a web site! You can check out his woodworking, from wood feather earrings to the occasional custom guitar, and maybe even buy something... the stuff really has the soul of the artist in it and is Hill Country with a capital H. And a C too I suppose, otherwise it would just be "Hill." Tell him we sent you. Believe me, in the extended Birdsong Guitars family, Uncle Johnny sits at the head of the table.

Well, you had your chance... Uncle Johnny has passed on leaving many laughs, much beautiful wood art, and major ripples. I'll have a memorial site soon...
