So the neck is on bridge on earthing strip in 62 style straplocks MOP block markers Tomorrow: earthing in cavities Pickups strings control plate although I have no knobs dry fitting of Tort celluloid plate and tug bar ive given up on the body, it’s as good as it was going to get. It looks okay from the front and will relic quickly as there is minimal varnish and the nitro paint marks and scrapes easily, more so given careless handling... and who on earth would be careless in handling it?😎

yes but Marco is Belgian and speaking almost perfect English but with little practical knowledge of British wildlife and locales. “Staffie” might leave him a bit puzzled. I was keeping it simple for him. As a speaker of a few languages, I know from bitter experience that’s it’s the hardest thing when you have to untangle irony mixed with local reference and make sense of it in the language that your head is using. I mean Vienna, new year pigs and marzipan ? That one had me thrown till a local explained it slowly @Marcoelwray a staffie is a slang name for a breed of dog, a Staffordshire terrier. Heavy, thick set, often used in illegal dog fighting. Some are nice and some are unpredictable at best.

Stick with black cabs, perhaps @pbasspecial will be working when you’re in town there is an app for phones where you can hail a proper London cabbie to your location - I can’t recall the name of it but someone here surely will

too true, my better half still calls it "a guitar". The argument that its "a different sized instrument, played differently, making a different sound, in a different way, with a different purpose" does not register. A cello is not the same as a violin. -
