  • I was reading a blog post (click here to read it) authored by the owner of Taylor Guitars, and I started relating it to how I feel about solder. For those of you that don’t know, Taylor guitars are beautifully crafted instruments, not the kind of “dime-a-dozen” toys that you find at garage sales or music sections of department stores – they are the real-deal. Last year I happened upon a tour

    of the Taylor Guitar facility in El Cajon, CA after a trade show and I was blown away by how much care goes into each of the guitars that are produced there. Taylor’s core customers realize how special the product is, and they will settle for nothing less.

     

    So, how the heck does this relate to solder? As a tech guy I get calls from people who want Indium Corporation material - they don’t know which product they need yet, but they want to use our products if at all possible. It might be because they feel good about the quality, packaging, technical support, supporting documentation, or just because they feel like they have a connection with us. To me, that’s awesome! I admit - I am the same way with some things I purchase. Feel free to give us a call, even if it’s just to chat!


    All the best,
    ~Jim
