Guitar now in my possession, 👍 I’ll touch base with Rich and  we’ll soon get it winging it’s way down to WSM! 🙂

You have no idea how much I am looking forward to getting this. Thanks again to both of you, I am so, so, so grateful

Jon

@andyonbass& @Richdo you want me to sort it all out between you two or will you sort it out between you? I am happy to do it however there is less chance of a pink torpedo up in communication if there is only 2 people involved rather than 3. 
 

Thanks again both of you. I am incredibly grateful. If I can do anything for either of you I am happy to do it. If either of you want any cash for your troubles please tell me

Again I am so grateful

Most likely going through Bracknell next Sunday (27th) on my way back to Swindon if that helps....

Thank you. If I sort it out for you to collect it and I pay for it and all that would you mind collecting it and handing it on to Rich please?

Thank you

Jon

Thanks for that offer Rich, I am really grateful 

Jon

There is a guitar for sale in Bracknell that I have been after for a while. There is no way that I can collect it, I can’t drive anymore in fact I couldn’t even sit in a car for that length of time anymore. This is a real shot in the dark but I don’t suppose there is anyone on here that travels from Bracknell to Weston super Mare who would be prepared to collect it for me and then drop it off for me? I would happily pay someone for their trouble. 
The guy selling it has had problems with couriers in the past and won’t entertain shipping it unfortunately. 
 

If anyone can help in any way I would be really grateful. It is only a cheap guitar (£100) but it will be good enough for me plus not being able to work anymore means money is really in short supply anyway. 
 

Thanks

Jon

Thanks. A lot of work left to do but I’m happy with the start. Just don’t know what I will do with them. Might sell them and donate the money to Joes charity

Over the last few months I have been busy with a side project. I have always wanted to build the 3 Joe Strummer Telecasters (one is an Esquire to be precise) and I have now made enough progress to start showing them off a bit. The bodies need some relic work and I may change the bridge on the black one to a 3 saddle one. No idea what I will do with them when they are finished though.

 No prob Jon but we'll have to sort something to get it down there as I've no plans to go to Torquay until end of March. It weighs a ton with the hard case.

End of March is fine. Hopefully you will sell it anyway. 
Take care and stay safe

Can you message me about the musical charity? I’ve got a box of guitar books, stands, leads, studio phones and so on that could be useful to someone. 

Sent you a PM

Jon

“If it doesn't sell, it'll probably end up In Weston Super Mare”

Thanks

Jon 👍

Do you still have these

Jon

Thanks very much again @Nickofor the box of bits. Apologies that the thanks are overdue but I have had Covid which got in the way of life a bit. Stuff is really appreciated 

Jon

Thank you @steve-bbbfor the bridge and the other stuff you sent through previously. Really is all appreciated

Jon

Can I just say a huge thanks to John @KiOgonfor sorting through all of the pots I sent home and making them up into looms for me. Really appreciate it as always, you are a star John

Jon

A huge thank you to @alyctesfor all the necks, bodies and bits he delivered to me the other day. Apologies the thanks are delayed but as you know I have had Covid and felt a bit rough. 
 

Thank you so much again

I know Jon, I  sent you a Strat. If I  decide to dump this, yes you can have

it. All depends if I  end up with a P bass of some sort for the Epi. 

I love the Epiphone, but getting it from you would be a nightmare and money is in short supply as usual ☹️
 

Jon

If you decide to get rid of the knackered p bass would you give me a shout please as I rebuild basses from donated parts and give them to charities and schools and the like so I am always on the lookout for cheap or donated instruments or parts. Hope you don’t mind me asking

Thanks 

Jon

These are great pickups can’t believe they haven’t sold
