Hi All,
We’ve had a number of requests to post pictures of the new shop now that it’s up and running, so here are a bunch of pictures of the new shop.
It’s a work in progress, and not quite finished yet, but it already feels like a shop should, especially with Chuck’s trusted “assistant” Lexi Lu working in quality control.
Chuck is hard at work on three new models. The first batch of the new “Legacy” model is being built now and there are still a couple available. Call Chuck for descriptions and availability. Stay tuned for news of the other two new guitars!
Oh and by the way, are you on facebook? Become a fan of CP Thornton Guitars by going to http://www.facebook.com/pages/CP-Thornton-Guitars/72967238720?ref=ts. It’s a great way for folks to see what others are up to and to show off your guitars and skills. This is a relatively new thing for us, and we’re always looking for input on how we can improve. Let us know what you think.
Many thanks to Pat Driscoll for the photos!

Hi, Chuck, I’m really looking forward to joining you and Jay at the Spartanburg Guitar Show next week. I expect there will be a lot of new fans and new orders, so the timing is great for your new shop! I’m holding my breath while I’m waiting to see your new ideas,too.

I gotta laugh! Most of us have purchased guitars from Chuck, and no sooner does he announce a new model, we pounce! What is it? What does it look like? How does it sound? It reminds me of Bill Murray in “What About Bob”? “I want, I need”! And can you blame us? Chuck is a thinking man’s thinker; coming up with new ideas, new models, attracting old and new customers alike. I’m no different. I got a BQ, I got gear. Somehow, no matter how small my living space gets, there is always room for another CPT! Thanks, Chuck. Keep thinkin’ and tinkerin’.

Here is hoping your flight went well Chuck. Considering this northeaster storm I hope you were able to get to South Carolina on time. Best wishes for success.

Chuck,
Thank you for your time and the tour of your shop. My expectations were quite high already, but they were soundly exceeded! Truly Exquisite. Now the tough part in deciding which model is the best fit. I hope you have a great trip to SC.
