Info

Michael Collins is coming out with a book on building a laminated gypsy swing guitar.

The only complete manual which explains the construction of the laminated gypsy swing guitar in full detail. All instruction for the construction of molds, jigs, and the procedures to build your very own instrument from scratch. Line drawings, and many photos make the completion of either a d-hole, or an oval hole guitar possible to anybody that is up for a good challenge. Mr. Maccaferri would be pleased!

Due Fall of 2004.

We have been getting our products to our customers using online ordering since 2000. In all of that time (and across the hundreds of orders processed) our customers have not had one instance of credit card difficulties due to online ordering.

Our online orders are fully encrypted and our e-commerce site is directly provided by ccNow, a secure online retailer. The security technology is state of the art and your credit card information is transmitted only once.

All products are in stock and will normally be shipped out to you on the next business day.

PriorityMail_env.jpg All orders purchased here at CurtSheller.com, JazzGuitarResources.com, UkuleleResources.com UkuleleChords.net and UkuleleForGuitarPlayers.com are processed using a secure shopping cart system and shipped within 48 hours USPS. Allow 7 to 10 business days for delivery. It is not our intention to profit from shipping and handling charges. The rates are an average cost, and intended to cover expenses only. Please do not ask how long it will takes to get your order. All US orders are shipped USPS Priority Mail® or USPS First-Class Mail® (under 1lb) and delivery dates are not predictable. I do not check on an order not received until three weeks have elapsed since it was shipped. Three weeks is not how long it takes to get your order. Rather, it is how long it takes to convince us that something is wrong. Some orders are returned by the USPS and we have to wait to see if that has happened before any action is taken. Thanks, Curt Sheller Publications.
