Congratulations on your Heinonen SJ. I had the pleasure of being caretaker for one and it was superb. Enjoy it in good health!

I met Drew at the 2015 Fretboard Summit. He wasn’t exhibiting and didn’t have a booth, but he told me he had a couple of his guitars in the trunk of his car. So I followed him out to the parking lot and played both guitars in succession.
Exquisite work, and he’s a nice person, to boot. I had never heard of him prior to meeting him, but I walked away a fan. Wade Hampton Miller |

Congratulations! What a beauty!
I have never had the chance to play a Heinonen. Ever since I bought my Charis I have been curious about them. Both builders, Bill Wise and Drew Heinonen seem to take their cues from Olson. Enjoy your new instrument!

Thanks! I don't know much about Bill but I do know that Drew worked with Olson on a bunch of custom builds, then went on to get permission from Jim to build using certain design elements of Jim's.

Thanks, it sounds (to me) as good as it looks and feels.
