Old/New
by SHAKEY » Thu May 22, 2014 5:04 pm
I built this guitar back in April 1989 as a college project (job restart thingy,) it sat for years in the bogey hole of my brothers flat (which is another story.) Any way after spending a lot of time and money I have rebuilt it and this is it. John Davis saw this when it was a Black pull release thing with 3+3 which worked really well but I thought it was time for an update. I shall of course stick a video on youtube as soon as I can. final pic is next.

Ecky thump Dave, this is a classy piece of work. Very nice - love the keyless head.

Yes Tony I wondered if anyone would notice that, It's actually a temporary fret board until I get my new one from Tom Bradshaw. Maybe I should leave it. HHHHMMMMM!!!!!!!

Looks impressive Dave, if it sounds as good as it looks you've got a winner, look forward to hearing it.

You are truly a dark horse Mr Seddon ! this is a fine piece of kit, and you made it all by yourself ?? 
I thought you made cookers ?
All the best, Frank. Wales.
