"After 40 years of working six days a week running the business, I'm thrilled that this partnership with Warwick will enable me to return my focus to custom-built instruments while introducing our instruments and accessories to more musicians than ever before,"
Does this mean he'll only be doing the true custom orders in NY? Will the "regular" NY models now be made in Germany similar to the Warwick German Pro Series?
If I were him, I wouldn't be offering anything made in China. But I'm not him. Otherwise, it looks like a good move. He's built a great business, he can't keep building them indefinitely, and he's decided now is the time to act. Good for him.
