@tej Top song from a marvellous guitarist and musician. I like a lot of Satch’s stuff, this whole album is superb. Although, Surfing with the Alien is...

Yeah or Nay? Do you think there is any reason why this material couldn’t be used to make fret marker dots? Bright yellow inlays don’t exist, I’ve l...
Fretboard and parts. Lovely Ebony fretboard from Mark @markbailey and I love Gotoh hardware in Cosmo Black.
