Hi Vinylhed, thanks so much for this sweet instrument! Just got it today and have to say its probably the best Christmas and birthday present I have ever received. Would love to come up and jam sometime. I'll have to get practising though. Thanks again!!

Thanks folks, I'm really going to miss that git. Here's hoping the new owner will swing by here at some point and join our merry band. That reminds me, I've still got to put together an "owners's manual".

Vinyl, Linda and I just admired this.   Some fine, bouncy and WELL played boogie blues.   Lots of great ornaments on this one.   Yes, that Ashton would be sad to part with.  Hope it goes to a good home.
