| Dear Yasu Kamiya Thank you very much for the Canopus YL-6s steel guitar. It's a very beautiful instrument and the tone is great, I like the weight and play-ability. It's very comfortable on my lap and the stand is good, too. You are the #1 steel guitar maker in the whole world !! Again, thank you very much for everything you did forme and hopefully I'll have a chance to meet you personally some day. Canopus YL-6S Kevin Kanemoto Maui, Hawaii |

| Aloha Yasu-San I played a Hawaiian gig last nite using the CANOPUS YS-8SD for the first time. The guitar was excellent ! I received many compliments and also a number of folks in the audience, (musicians), had never seen a Canopus previously. The instrument certainly intrigued them ! I want you to know that this guitar has the tone I have always been seeking and moreso, the workmanship is superb. Mahalo. "Keoki" George Lake Edmonton, Canada |

| Hi Yasu, What a great guitar! I don't know how you managed to make a guitar with such great tone and sustain. Also like the quality workmanship and finish. There are now 3 of your guitars in George Lake's class! I bet there will be more in the future. It was great doing business with you. With a BIG thank you. Lothar Strach Edmonton, Canada |

Dear Bruce and Linn. Thanks for the picture of your beautiful guitar. Do you play a lot? Yes you did send me the Aloha Oe. We play it too with George, usualy at the end of the program. I sure like my guitar it sounds beautiful. I think it has the best sound of all the guitars in class. George likes to play it whenever he gets a chance. I wish I could play as well as he does, but I will have to do a lot more practicing. Anyway I'm working on it. Wishing you and your wife a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Yours truly Ruth Blascsok, Canada |
