Re: What's on your work bench?

Grotto1.jpg Grotto3.jpg It's hard, looking at this to see why it took every weekend for 3 months. But there was a deck and a jungle there before, the Boy now knows enough to do the next one on his own and I'd be happy for any chippie to run a microscope over it.

But give me a blank sheet of paper and this is pretty much exactly what I would have drawn. I have no doubt I will hate myself for letti...

Re: What's on your work bench?

I don't know but it looks the same as an old Tokai Strat I used to own. I never got on with it but I sold it to a mate who happily gigged it for 20 years before replacing it with a Suhr.

Re: Cheapo Rhythm axe for 3 fingered Rog

Rog!!!!!! How are you mate? :D You regularly pass through my thoughts; so much so that I wonder if you're stalking me.

I'd love to pay you a visit next time I'm down your way. I'd take a PM of your new address as permission.

Welcome back, The Voice Of Reason.
