Lay Down Beside Me

[SHAKEY]

I recorded this just after I finished building the guitar and the video quality was fine but somehow Youtube seem to have made a bit of a mess of it but anyway here goes.

That's just lovely Dave, you haven't lost your touch mate. Thanks for posting.

[SHAKEY]

Thank you Roy, I really appreciate it, I have a very special number lined up especially for you and Sylv in the next few days. Hope you are both well. Dave.

[Nick Bidmade]

Wow!

The playing is sublime - but the build of the guitar... Exceptional
Very well done Dave.
Is that a 12 string pickup and neck? The guitar seems much wider than a standard psg - although it could be picture angle or the wide spread of the headstock that gives that impression???
Love it anyway

Hello Nick, no the guitar is pretty standard, that's what I meant when I said Youtube made a balls of it. the Pickup is a Lace lumitone. I know it looks wierd and I don't know how they have done it but not to worry.

[Donny Johnston]

Nice one Dave. Donny.

[bob adams]

Tasty Dave!

[SHAKEY]

Bob, I've sent you a PM.

[Danny Mitchell]

Finally got a chance to listen to this
Really sweet, Dave. And I can only doff my cap in amazement at the fact you've built that lovely sounding instrument. Great job

[SHAKEY]

Thank you all for your nice comments, it's reassuring to know I haven't completely lost it in spite of the pain of arthritis and the increasing loss of hearing. As for the guitar itself Danny some of the credit must go to Carter as the changer mech', neck and machine heads are from a Carter steel the rest of it including the legs I made. Cheers Dave.
