Welcome Jock, I'm sure you'll find lots of stuff to get you inspired. Just check out the photo section for starters.

Hey look at those members numbers now. Not long since we hit the 100 mark.

I can just about remember Joe Brown when you 45 year olds were being born,lol
Seriously though folks; you may remember him from any time in the last 45 years because I don't think he ever retired. I liked Jo because he was one of the few 'pop' stars that could really play his guitar.

Hi, if anyone is wanting to get as slide I have just got a MojoBone Works one which I would highly recommend!!!
I got a stubby slide which Randy made exactly the size I wanted….he makes each one individually by hand and it’s a real work of art! I’ll put a link to some photos below so you can see how beautiful it is, with hand carving all round the edges.
He also threw in some amazing extras as a surprise which you’ll see on the photo – a bone and wood pick, a bone sound hole cover and some bone nut planks….he also gives you some adhesive moleskin to put inside to make it fit just right : -)

Here’s a link to the photos http://www.cigarboxnation.com/photo/albums/mojobone-works

and there are more details here if anyone’s interested http://smokehouseguitars.com/blognewsroll/?cat=34

or Randy is on CB Nation http://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/RandySBretz

Mine was the first order he’d had from the UK, but I know he’d like to do more : -)
