The things that caught my eye after the ‘tie’, are the leopard print DM’s being worn by the chap on the right (I’m guessing guitarist, drummers are more about practicality when it comes to footwear), I’m liking those.

Contact Strings & Things, the UK distributor for EBMM perhaps?

Dorset eh? Nice 👍.

Hand Cannot Erase - Steven Wilson

Something that feels comfy and has an aesthetic you like is the best place to start, as you need to want to pick it up and play it.

I thought there was a video of my old mob doing Atomic. Turns out it was Hanging on the Telephone; harumph! I’ll share it anyway, not the greatest recording, but OK.

Get Down - Gilbert O’Sullivan

3.7kg by my bathroom scales 

Wow! That’s really, really good for a fiver, especially a ‘Ray. My Mustang weighs the same as that.

The 7" version seemed a bit short, the full-length one just went on and on and on, and we couldn't find a happy medium.

We added a verse to give it a more cohesive feel.
 

I always found the shortened 1st octave section out of the solo tricky to feel (IIRC it was a 6 count as opposed to an 8).

My big issue is that run on the F#m in Atomic, so many hand shifts,

My old band used to do this and I can testify that it is indeed quite the workout.

I'm of the opinion the 90s look better than the humbuckers.

You are not alone, they look great. Definitely tones down the bling factor.

So the lesson is - if I could play as well as @knicknack I could play through anything and still sound good?! 

It has to be said that the straight into the i/face sounds damn good.
