Bob, did you get to chat to Jeff from sho pro??

[bob adams]

I did Matt, he says you're a 'wee rascal'

No! I jest we had a great chat on all things BUD! Though we have chatted by email it was great to meet him at last!

Thanks Bob, that was fantastic - he's such an inventive and fresh player.

I must say, on the strength of the video I personally prefer the sound of his Emmons. Obviously it's not like hearing it live, so what was the consensus from the people there?

Thanks again and keep'um coming.

Guitar sounded real good, but amp left a lot to be desired,he did try an old Evans but decided the Peavey was the lesser of two evils.I personally thought his sound was better in the bar at night, but in both hall and bar the playing was awesome ,and what a great guy he was, a few that I can think of could take a lesson from his humility.

[Tony Smart]

Thanks Malcolm,

Do you happen to know what amp he prefers or uses himself ?

[Malcolm]

Tony, meant to add, Jay Dee, said his Emmons was still his favourite , but the Infinity was probably going to be his travel guitar, the airlines wanted eight hundred dollars each way to ship Emmons, Infinity being a lot lighter was an awful lot less.Believe Sarah also had problem shipping hers,Ryanair wanted Two hundred pound to ship from UK-Dublin-UK.They have also got a weight restrictions of twenty kilos per piece on musical instruments.Even my Millenium in lightweight case is twenty two kilos.
