- All good things must come to an end. I think this might quite possibly be the end of my Luthier career. Enjoy!

Thanks for all the repair and build videos over the years Jerry.
Feels like we’re old friends even though we’ve never met.
All the best and take care. Bill
Darn! You have been an inspiration, Jerry - I returned to guitar building thanks to you. Thanks for all the tips and advice; I'll miss seeing The Rosa!, and your Chocolate series remains one of the best on the internet. So close to that 100k subscribers as well! Always hoping there'll be more. God bless you Jerry.
Don here from Hamilton NZ on my Wife's tablet-SUSAN, It'll be sad to see you go Jerry, but thanks for all your advice on guitar repairs and how to maintain an repair them, please take care 😊😊😊
I've enjoyed your content over the last few years, Jerry. Thanks for all the creativity and craftsmanship.
Thank-You Jerry. I so wished I would have brought you my Grandpa's Dobro to put new binding on. He passed it down to dad, and dad passed it on to me. I was 4 years old when dad taught me, "Hang Down Your Head Tom Dooley, on one string." I'm now 70 years old. Thanks for all your video's, and you'll always get a thumbs up from me.
I can’t believe I’m reading this, and I’ll tell ya why. Not two days ago, I was thinking of what might be a cool song to cover in some way, and The Kingston Trio’s Hang Down Your Head Tom Dooley popped into my head. I thought “not many, if any, people would recognize that one”!
Apparently I was mistaken 😆
I sure am gonna miss you fixing and talking about these old instruments.
Greerings from Finland! Thank you Jerry for all of these repairs and new builds. I have been watching these for several years now and I enjoyed every one of them. I wish you all the best!
Thank you very much for a good few years of great instrument videos. I love every single one of them!
So sad, the end of the best videos ever! I do still enjoy the farm videos. The Rosameister is and always will be…the best!!!
Jerry, you have always been informative, creative, and entertaining. For someone with ADD, like me, you have managed to keep my attention over the years. Keep posting your videos on the farm and your little get-togethers for music. You are the uncle I never had.
I’m going to miss all the repair and build videos Jerry. I have learned much watching you over the last few years. Thank you for all the instruction, inspiration, mentorship and music, for introducing us to Caleb, Homestead Horsemanship, Cash and Yolanda too! One of these days, I’m going to make a trip to Mountain View.
All things come to their natural end. It takes courage to realize that and make the decision. Thanks for taking care of all those instruments and for showing us how you design and build your own. Best wishes!
Say it ain't so Jerry!
I only work on my own and did everything wrong, until I began to learn from you.
Thank you.
Since 1983. Forty years is long enough. Enjoy your retirement. ✌️
Jerry, thank you so much for all your fascinating videos over the last few years ! The amount of time you must have spent bringing them to us is incredible. I suppose I'll just have to start at the beginning again ! Wishing you good health & happiness from here in the North of Scotland. Martin
It was a great finish video for repairs, but I enjoy watching the work around the farm now!! I’ll keep on watching! Thanks Jerry 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I’m 75 and understand your aches and pains
Jerry , your not a repair man you are an artist. thank you.
No worries Jerry I will be hang out with ya. 👍☝🏻
I enjoyed every last one of your episodes which I watched. Go well.
You are the greatest,we will miss you working on instruments.
I am 76 and I have learned to repair instruments by watching you,I could not learned any better,with the $6000.00 course,thank you from the bottom of my heart.
May God bless you and your family.
Like they say, only the good die young. You have been a huge inspiration for me and I am very sad to see you go. Take care, my old friend.
I've liked your work for years from AUSTRALIA
Been enjoying your channel for a long time!!! Bravo!!!
Youre one of the CZcamsrs who inspired me to pay for Luthier classes. I'm going to miss you and I hate the trolls in these comment sections.
Thank you Jerry!
All the best to you Jerry. I have enjoyed watching your videos over the years. Glad you're still going to be putting up videos.
You've been fantastic to watch! You're an inspiration, and I learned a great deal over the years. Thank you so much!
Sending big thanks from France Jerry, you've been an inspiration for many years.
Jerry, I have been watching you for years now and I just wanted to tell you that you are amazing! I also wanted you to know that I use your videos to put my children to sleep almost every night. Lol. I always watch them until the job is done. Love your music and your attitude. Thanks for everything.
just about 6 years ago, January 5, 2018, i decided to learn to build electric guitars from scratch. Fretboard and electronics included. I began to learn to play on these things I have built. I thank you so very much, as I owe it all to your wisdom and ways. I wish you would go on forever. You seem like a friend and Elder.
man I know what you mean about not easy! I can relate to the hands not working too! I'm not giving up just yet but I have really slacked on video production, I'm hoping to pick back up on it eventually tho.
Hi Jerry; Sorry to see you go but you cant go on for ever, you have kept me entertained for many months following all your work on the instruments that leave your shop much better than when they come in, Its a pleasure to see a real craftsman at work,
.
Hey Jerry I don't no if it's fate or something else but it's been along time since we last spoke and I'm sad to hear this is your last video I want to thank you for all the great videos you provided God Bless you and your family
Sounds GREAT! Thanks for posting!
Jerry, I have missed your repair and Re-building instrument videos. We all have to know when to quit, though you have taught me and entertained me, so I admit my disappointment. Best to you, always! Dan
Nice educational job done.. Tom and I will continue to tune in. Aletha Battle Ground, WA
Thanks for these videos Jerry, I'll never build or repair any of my guitars but it has been a pleasure watching you over the years. I now know what a good repair job looks like. I hope retirement is good for you.
Sorry to see you quit. I’ve learned a lot. Thank you.
I always especially enjoyed the way you commented on your work. Thank you for the many great hours!
Nice body of work. You left a legacy that will certainly endure.
Yes thanks for sharing all you have with us. Be blessed brother, I will miss you. Of course im wondering why your at this end ?
Jerry, you are a gem amongst men. I have learned so much from your work. Thank you for sharing your skill and talent in the stringed instrument arena. Your words of wisdom on life has been invaluable to me when i most needed it. God bless you Jerry. I hope that your retirement is full of joy and family.
I can't believe how sad I am that your repair videos are over.. I have watched every single one of them and have learned so much. Thank you Jerry!!
Thanks for the memories Jerry. You inspired me to pick up the mandolin which I bought from the boys at TAS. Will stay tuned for future videos on the farm. Blessings to you!
well-done Jerry, The last Rodeo, What a good way to end the journey of yours
Thanks Jerry a pleasure to watch all these years.
Thanks Jerry I've watched your instrument videos for years. I build, solid guitars but you've certainly been an inspiration. Enjoy your retirement
I am happy you are listening to your body saying stop this, it is hurting you too much. I will miss your build and repair videos. You are a master luthier!
All the best...
Shocked by the news - but happy that you have decided to spend more time on your projects. I had planned to visit but I also have an old place that I always seem to be fixing (one end gets fixed in time for the other end to break). Thank you for the great information. I did finish the epiphone in part so that my son and grandkids would have an old great playing guitar around the house. The expensive guitars get put up and saved and the others get played by the family. Hope all is well for you & family, God Bless and keep smiling. Adam
Thank you for all the best videos and inspiration gonna miss the great times
Hi Jerry, just a quick line to say thank you for all the fantastic repair videos you've posted. Everything you present is factual, honest, and real world. You're a true master craftsman and great knowledge sharer. Much appreciation to you.
Enjoy your well-earned retirement! But don't be a stranger.. maybe you can find interesting topics to talk about in the future that don't involve rebuilding destroyed guitars! :)
Just do a instrument repair video once in a while, what the heck Jerry, come on man.
Oh man, you're the reason I rebuilt my dad's busted old Gibson acoustic. Thank you for everything..peck
Fascinating repair video -- including the view under one of the tuning machine rubber donuts.
I have a very similar mandolin (natural top) with no brand or model labeling, but it was ID'd as Chicago's Stromberg-Voisinet by Jake Wildwood in Vermont, who said he had worked on several, probably made before the company evolved into the Kay brand. He repaired some back cracks, set it up nicely, and sold it to me a half dozen years ago.
Meanwhile, thanks for your years of contributing to the education of players and luthiers! Best wishes on the next chapter.
Thank you for sharing your skills with us.
I found your channel recently, and have been binge watching your repairs. I do some very simple repairs on my own instruments but am a complete amateur, so I learned a lot from your videos even though a lot of it is probably overkill for me lol. I got to this video and felt a bit sad that it's the last one... wishing you all the best!
Thanks for all the brilliant videos Gerry 😊
Thanks for sharing all the videos.
Good luck in this new chapter of your life!
Oh my. Better than new. Beautiful sound and looks. Sad that the love of doing this work hurts you so much.
Hopefully the pain is down. Take care Jerry.
Best
Kristy
I just discovered your channel about two months ago great builds love your work hope you do more videos . The chocolate violin was an amazing repair.
Thanks Jerry. I retired from the army after 42 years, so I know how great retirement is. I wish I’d known a luthier skills when I was young. So now I do my own setups and play my instruments. You’ll be able to take time and go places now.
Jerry.. I have loved these posts. Thanks for all the fun!
Great job Jerry,happy retirement if that day ever comes,lol,Cheers,god bless you.
I've been a fan of yours for a long time now.
Starting at about RSW 30 or so, i watched each and every one of your vids. You always got a thumbs up.
I started working on my own instruments as well, doing a neck reset on a 100 year old tipple lately.
Currently i'm repairing a dreadnougt, the top was split into thousend pieces due to an accident. Reminded me of your chocolate-series. The top is solid again, i could even save the original binding.
I also developed a deepenig interest in Bluegrass music.
A lot of your songs are really great. Do you consider making any new studio recordings in the future?
I'm looking foward to whatever topics you're going to cover, but nonetheless hope to see you working on musicial instruments one time or another.
Thanks for it all.
Dennis
Jerry, we have more than enough video here to do just about anything we need done to our acoustic instruments. More than enough.
I've always loved your honesty and work ethic. You've been an inspiration to many and you taught me not to fear trying to work on my own instruments.
Going boldly to the bench of repair and asking my tools to humbly participate in the endeavor We are about to partake. The instruments are willing to be redeemed from their brokenness and rely upon a workman's hands and wisdom to heal them. I take great faith in what I've learned here and now to honor you by what was taught, being a workman not ashamed to give it a go.
You have been a blessing to my musical soul all of these years... with your Southern charm and easy going temperament. I have much information yet to be gleaned from Rosa String Works in this wonderful format. You truly are a Genius .
May God bless you as you continue serving others with these Gifts He has bestowed you with.
May you find peace and rest away from the camera to do other things you richly enjoy. I pray for your health and family, who will get to see more of you.
I've made a decision to acquire my 3rd Mandolin...a 30 year absence from my last one, to add to the music I've been making. Mandolin adds the voice of the wood and string choir that is needed to complete the ensemble of tones.
Thank you, Sir ! WE all have been Blest by you. Happy Trails !
Thanks so much for sharing your craftsmanship with us. I have enjoyed watching you problem solve and work on instruments. God Bless. Dan
Your videos are a true inspiration Jerry! Sad to see this chapter end, but will gladly keep watching your content for as long as you put it up!
Thanks Jerry! Your content is wonderful and congratulations on a great career!
I'll be here watching... Thank you for sharing all the skills and tips and procedures.. Many of us out here have taken on projects we never would have without your teaching.. Bravo♥️♥️♥️
Hi friends and neighbors! Congratulations to you, Jerry for a fine forty luthier years. If I were to find a good "The Rosa" mandolin out there in bluegrass land, how much do you think I would have to spend?
Sorry to see you go ,thanks for the informitive videos
Bitter sweet. ❤ You are a fine musician. And an excellent craftsman as well. Love your tune Jerry. Snappy tempo and good vibes. Take care of those fingers brother. I have arthritis as well and Ka'chava is helping me a lot with pain. Amazing product. No joke. Be well brother. ❤
You’ll be missed, i so enjoyed your attention to detail and making sure things are done right. The world is a better place.
Thanks Jerry. Your videos have helped me set up a cheap violin and make it perfectly playable ❤
Hi Jerry, congrats on your retirement, have enjoyed your videos over the years and will continue to keep an eye on you in your future adventures. Best of luck from London. Seamus.
Going to miss your videos! My grandfather hand crafted violins and ukes before I was born and I always love to see a real professional doing that work. Hope you can do a few videos during the year.
Good luck !
;Hea Jerry, I know it probably hurts your hands but it sure is good to see your luithery stills back doing their thing. Thanx for the memories. Guy Bross Ruskin FL.
Thanks for everything. Kindest of regards, best of wishes, and godspeed.
Thanks from just down the road (I work at at Fort Wood). I discovered your videos in the last year and have really enjoyed them. Thank you!
I really enjoy your instrument repair videos. Hope you can continue doing repairs.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience of luthiery with the world at large.
*"If you want to do it well, do it the Rosa way"*
Thanks for all of your videos Jerry, it´s been
a pleasant journey.
I particularly liked your Sherlock Holmes mind
in coming up with solutions to problems, better
than Holmes though, you didn´t need to smoke
a few pipes.
God bless you Jerry, I've enjoyed you recorded work, I'll stay tuned for the farm projects.
Thank you kindly for all you have shown us here your craftsmanship and your music . I just love your show here ! Peace and love from Iceland ♥
Seems like yesterday you were trying to get up to 10k subscribers. Time flies when you’re havin’ fun…and it has been fun. Thanks Jerry
I've learned a LOT from your videos Jerry. Good health and best of luck!
It’s been a pleasure watching you work on instruments including one of mine, Jerry! Will keep on watching your channel!
I love all your content brother!
Jerry I’ve enjoyed your channel through the years. I’ve been watching you and I’ve learned quite a bit about guitars and mandolins and violins and I think you I have friends that live in Missouri and I hope to get up to visit them next year hopefully and I hope to make it by you to visit and check out your ranch your farm may God bless you and your family and God bless our nation. 👍🪕🎻🎸🌷🤠🙏🏻🇺🇸
Man, I've been watching your repair videos for several years now. Sorry to hear this is the end, but I totally get wanting to retire. I'm a part time luthier myself, and I have learned quite a bit from you over the years. Congrats on such a long and successful career my friend!!
Jerry been watching for years your adaptability and skills are fantastic. You can only do it right. Little bit at a time till it’s done! Good luck with whatever your doing!
Thank you for all of the amazing videos.
May the Lord bless you.

I always wondered if I’d know when it was time to hang it up. I did , 4 years ago, go enjoy your life. Best of luck going forward!
Thank you for everything you’ve shown , and played over my first ten years of retirement . You have entertained and educated me and I greatly appreciate all you’ve done .
