You are correct, sir.  And in fact, though M. Fripp remains actively
involved, the stewardship of Guitar Craft North America is now under the
direction of Curt Golden, an original Crafty and member of the LOCG.

It's interesting that he doesn't mention guitar-craft founder Fripp in

the press blurb! I think their hoping guitar craft - as a genre - will

transcend it's founder's fame and stand on its own
