Great sounding guitar.  This whole homemade instrument thing has a strong element of sticking it to the man.  Keep it up.

Really appreciate the comments and support guys, thanks very much. 407Bug the new vox is a great little amp its a vox mini 5, loads of FX and even a built in drum machine,  takes batteries as well, totally recommend them.

I remember this one from before.  It's a beauty and sounds great.  I suppose it's a badge of honor to get the Gretsch patent lawyers on it.  Fine job Junksville!

Like it just like it is. Wow, good sound. Your playing is just great as usual.

Oh man. Good call. "The Grudge." That's perfect!

Superb work Jim and great playing. Perhaps you should re-name it a 'Grudge' ;-)
