Well done that man, your patience is exemplary, So you will have had it for 13dys by the time the next SSGW is due. No bother to a man of your calibre.

Well it's here !! My wife and I went to collect it from Ron in Liverpool. Ron couldn't have been more helpful and we chatted for a good while about steel, bass and music in general.

The saying is that it doesn't exist if there aren't photos so here they are:

Well Mark, it has taken a while but it will all have been worth while, he builds a lovely guitar, now comes the enjoyable part, learning to play the damn thing.

I hope your new baby gives you as much enjoyment along the road as I have got from mine.

See you, and it on Tuesday I trust

Best regards

Thanks guys. It'll be there on Tuesday, regardless of how much or little I can play. It's a long road to play steel properly. Been getting my major chord grips together over the past few days.

Uncle Roy - Diva is our Selkirk Rex cat and is also in my avatar. She climbed onto the Little Buddy steel when I first got it. She's only been allowed in the case of the Bennett !!
