It sounds great, too, John. :guitar:

Very impressive undertaking, all in all. The only improvement I can think of would be to paint it black and stick a couple of 'go faster' stripes on it :lol:

Great skills there John, something good to look at!
Having said that I've noticed the women in our village are looking much better since they have had to wear masks!

If anyone would like to own this "Demmons" I am open to sensible offers, it comes in a genuine Emmons case with legbag, but it will not be cheap as it has taken every genuine Emmons part I owned to build it andso there will never be another. Thanks to all that have shown an interest in my project.

Beautiful. Great job, John.
