A number of people have asked about Smithfield Fair's guitars - in particular, who maintains them. All Smithfield Fair's guitars are Guilds made in Westerly, Rhode Island, set-up and maintained by Holger Notzel at Riverfront Music here in Baton Rouge. You can contact Holger at 225-926-1976 or at 1865 Dallas Drive in Baton Rouge; or through Komet Amps. Yes, they make amps used by Sonny Landreth, Mark Knopfler, Eddie Van Halen & others.
