Cheers, Tom. Havin second thoughts about book, as it can only go UP in value, and really was only thinkin of sellin (along with other stuff, including Cds etc) to get money towards a for a resonator (probabaly Ozark 6 string). But have a few gitars may be able ta swap for resonator, if ah can get a good deal o Gum tree or Preloved.Yes, money not great for everyone. I've been hittin E bay a bit, and spent WAY over budget.

Shame ya are not gettin much from all the publicity, Tom. But guess these guys just pay basic interview rate. I'll let ya know if ah do 100 % decide ta sell,Tom, but at present, I may just ride the financial storm,a nd play a few Bert numbers lol. BTW, if ya write yer book on Bert, ah'll take a signed copy :)

CORBY OPEN EXHIBITION 2012

Posted on March 4, 2012 at 6:12pm 2 Comments

High Nation friends...can you please lend a hand? I have been involved decorating and converting an old library into an Art gallery here in our little town of Corby in Northamptonshire. I have managed to get two guitars in, they are hanging on the wall as I write. One is the CBG that came 4th in the Gitty 2011 build competition, the other is my Steampunk guitar with Uncle John on playing his CBG. Please go to facebook and punch in CORBY OPEN EXHIBITION 2012 then click like and leave a kind…
