@russ thank you I’ll check them out, mostly it seems we only get stung for really expensive things at the moment! 

@russ have you got any of their clamps?

@russ
I didn’t word my post very well and what I meant to say was that I’m ok with someone telling me it’s not good enough yet

@koendb  @tej  @russ Thanks for your kind wishes and thoughts, I’m sure Gina is going to fine after her treatment. Yes the grain filler is to try and get as smooth a surface as I can before lacquering. It’s not…   Read more»

Thanks @russ I’ve been mega busy but unfortunately not with guitars.  Yeah, it certainly is very pink and my customer already loves it. He will in turn build the guitar up and pass it on to the intended new owner….   Read more»

Nice body @clinton.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts @Russ and what about the guitar? 🤣

Thanks @Russ @Bpower. I’ve said it before, but I can say it again … the push of submitting something for the Bliss broadcasts finally got me off my ar$e and learning / recording stuff.  Listening back to some of my…   Read more»

Thanks @Russ – I realised that it was a bootleg after I did a bit more searching, but didn’t know the how & why it was a bootleg. Grabbed a couple more “unofficial” BAD releases whilst on my travels, so…   Read more»
