@ Hermit, thanks, and yep it makes up for all the times as a kid I could never find anything in shops with Belinda on!!

@ John, thanks a lot.

After LOTS of fiddling around I've got it to play like I want. I wanted something to take busking that I could play all of my songs on. On some songs I need to play overdriven slide and others need gentle picking, so it was quite hard to get right!!

that's a sweet set-up. personalized too........nice!

That is absolutely gorgeous.  I like it all, but especially the saddle, pup, volume nob and that strap is complimentary and just right.  Hope it plays as good as it looks.
