Thanks to the engineering Skills of my good friend Ron Mc Laren (Could not have done it without him!!) This "Lefty" is now almost a "Righty" No knee's yet this just a progress report :D

For Ron M - the guitar was originally built by one of my pupils, Alan Smith. Alan built half a dozen guitars in the 1980's, one of them was for Sarah Jory when she was about 10 years old.

Looking good John, I'm sure it will play fine, some of the original parts would be expensive to manufacture today, let us know when it is completed.
Thanks for the info Ken, we were trying to figure out who AES was, I didnt know if it was the owner or the builder.
Glad I could help

Best Regards Ron Mc
