I don't think so, not at the moment.

Just checked on his website, and found a link to his tumblr where the last post was

"So anyone wondering why there hasn’t been any activity from me for a bit I thought an update would be helpful. The past year and a half has been that of non-stop exhaustion. I’ll spare all the personal details but as of this writing I’m finally starting to be able to relax a bit and take a breath.

Having said that I’ve had to neglect a lot of things over the past 18 months and now that things have started relaxing a bit I think I am going to take the rest of 2022 to get caught up. My hope is to sort of re-launch Nelson Instruments sometime in 2023.

As always if anyone has any questions feel free to reach out. I’m still here and still have lots of plans for Nelson Instruments. Thanks very much for your continued support!"

So I guess it bodes well?

Ahh okay, good to know! I'll keep trolling for a used one to pop up. Thanks for checking!

Hopefully Bobby starts making guitar again soon, Nelsons are fantastic guitars for very reasonable money.

I haven't been playing my Attache much lately because the electronics need some attention, but that's a guitar I intend to hang onto forever.

This post got me thinking that I hadn't seen Bobby post on social media in a long time. Checking out his Tumblr, he says his Facebook and Instagram accounts got shut down for some reason, which has to be a huge blow for a small business.
