  1. I've just spent my Sunday filing down the fret sprout on my latest aquisition, followed by ripping out the stock pre amp and shielding the cavities with copper tape.  

     

    Tomorrow a new John East pre amp should arrive and when I've put that in, fitted new strings and set it up...it will be NBD!

      Pics will most definitely be forthcoming, when I've finished working on it.

  2. Our drummer just sent us a message today; he won't be able to come to any more rehearsals, not for several months anyway.  He left our WhatsApp group and refused to give an explanation.  

     

    He has been a rock for the last 2 years, always dependable and really committed, so this is all out of the blue.  I suspect he may have health or family problems.  He doesn't want to talk to me now but he did say "Give me time".

     

    I'm gutted about the band collapsing and also concerned for my friend.  It's been a bad day.

      Sorry to hear this. I fear your suspicions are right and whatever's going on he probably needs time to digest it all. 
       

      I'd give it a few days and then make contact letting him know that you're still there and thinking about him. I'm sure he'd appreciate that and may decide to share whatever his burden is. Stay close though; if he's going through issues he'll be grateful to know you're there and when things get better for him, the band will hopefully be okay too.

      Doesn't sound good.  He's obviously in some sort of bind.  Good luck to you both.
