We built these machines from scratch. MAINLY ANTONIO. I just drilled holes in aluminum pipe all day long for the parts. We needed money for our company so we went into partnership Jim D'aquisto and his money man and his lawyer. We formed D'Aquisto Strings. With all my knowledge of the music business and Antonios skill of making Machines and Strings we built it up to a Million in sales in 5 years. The money man got greedy and that was the end for me and Antonio. I retired because of a family problem that needed my total attention. I was 65. Never trust a guy with money or his lawyer
