Hi all, 
 
Shergold Marathon 6 String owner here, here's an album with a few pictures of it's restoration:

Currently on the lookout for a 4 string Marathon or a Modulator so if you know of any drop me a line! 
 
Also a big Yamaha BB fan, currently making a decent one out of a beat up BB414 and MIJ BB300 but, ofcourse, the BB1000/1200s is the dream, well out of my price range at the moment though. 
 
Thanks, 
James
