I am curious as to what kind of amp you were using on the video. I have a old Vox amp that sounds a lot like that. Also, do you all sell those pickups, if so how much and shipping costs to 73773. Thanks again, great sound.

Keep on slidin'

Cheers mate most kind of you - i must say that fitting them JD bottles is the hardest part as they are just a friction fit heald in by a good fit and the downward pressure from the strings - i think the next Plank i make is going to have one of my new Cast alloy Bridges fitted really want to try one on a solid body :) - yep to date i have sold 9 Planks each one slightly different

sweet mate i know whare to come for some dye then cheers :)

still not getting email updates don't know what the problem is i have not alterd any settings !!!!! oh well

catch you later mate

juju :)
