Re: Craig Witty R.I.P.
I'm very sad to hear this, but sadly not surprised. We spoke a couple months ago. I bought some parts from him and he threw in an awful lot of freebies... so I had the feeling this may be coming. What a nice guy - we bought and sold some cool guitarz from each other over the years. He'll be missed for sure. Coolguitarz.com seems to be down, but I can see it on the Internet Wayback Machine.

Very sorry to hear the sad news. I still own the Ric 650 Excalibur/Frisco which I bought from Craig about three years ago - needless to say, it arrived well-packaged in perfect condition. By sheer coincidence, I also came to own the 'one-off' 381V69-12 in Copper Gold which Craig had originally bought direct from the Rickenbacker factory - a fantastic example of Ric craftsmanship.
In the course of exchanging a number of lengthy emails, I came to know him as a family man of great honesty and integrity.

Re: Craig Witty R.I.P.
Sad news. I had the good fortune of meeting up with Craig a few times when he would visit family in my area. Great guy that I enjoyed spending time with. I am thinking about Craig's family now and I will miss him.

Very sad news...
Re: Craig Witty R.I.P.
I am so sorry to have learned this. Craig's enthusiasm for the "one off" knew no bounds. Heaven's Rickenbacker collection just grew exponentially. He will be missed.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

I missed this posting. I have talked to Craig for many years. Have sold/ bought/ traded many guitars over the past 15 years.
