F holes that have no place in a design. Guild Starfire - perfect. Warwick Infinity? DESIGN YOUR OWN SOUND HOLE.

Difficult to find in the shops now! I buy in bulk on Amazon. Seriously.

Quo! A far better band than most would believe. Cracking little bass solo in this one too.

The incredible Gus bass deserves a much better headstock than this.

These, all the time.

It's a magnificent collection, often overlooked because it wasn't an 'official' album as such, but there isn't a duffer on there as far as I'm concerned.

The only Beatles songs I don't really enjoy are the early time-filling covers - Dizzy Miss Lizzy, Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby and so on.

Glenn Cornick wasn't it?

Pete bought my Tech 21 YYZ pedal. Great person to deal with. Enjoy the pedal Pete!

I initially read that as Sugababes.

I can't stop thinking about these chaps for some reason...

I had first dibs on that! To be fair, I hadn't actually told you.

Let me know when you decide to sell the Red BB... 😉

I love the whole white and gold thing, but the body looks a bit squashed to me.

My first proper band were 'courted' by a gentleman who assured us he had 'contacts' and could easily get us a deal with East West records - which appealed to us as we were very much in the Pantera mould (or tried to be). This chap came to see us play a couple of times and then vanished. We heard that he'd died. Luckily for us it wasn't sinister in any way - he didn't ask for any money or get us to sign anything. I think deep down we all knew it was nonsense but it made us feel good about the band for a bit. Of course, he may have been telling the truth all along but died before he was able to propel us to stardom...
