Multi guitar building. Well impressed. @russ Thanks man. When the weather is terrible, I can’t get any gardening done and when other builds are hung up waiting for paint to cure and settle, I might as well get on with…   Read more»

I see that you’re nearly hitting the 20k

@russ Oh yes, I hadn’t noticed. Wow! How did that happen? 😁🤘🎸

Now that’s just showing off @Russ – they are incredible players.   They played hundreds of gigs every year – known as the hardest working band in the UK.  Retired a couple of years ago. I saw them play as…   Read more»

Wahey! @deej. Enjoy. 🎸😁 

Thanks @Russ I’m sure I will 

BRILLIANT @Marcel – thanks for posting that.  I’ve just spent a good half-hour listening through their YT channel and adding some CDs to my cart on their website. But it’s really the job of @Russ to encourage me to spend…   Read more»
