Pubs that sell Guinness. Pubs that let me in. Acoustic guitars with tones that make you lose control of your bladder. Lowden's, Fylde's, Telecasters and Les Paul Classics. Valve amps. Letters from the Taxman telling me I'm entitled to a rebate. Hi-Fi systems that become 'invisible' when listened to.
Good 'Live' music.

Repeats of mundane, brain-deadening television.
Bad 'Live' music.

I am a fifth-rate guitarist, with first-rate delusions and a penchant for unobtainable, expensive guitars.

Hi Billy,
Like myself you have been a little quiet recently. I hope all is well with you and yours. Did you enjoy the drumming clips.

regards

How are you.


That's right it is in a great part of the world.   I am in Ards, just around the corner from the Avalon factory!   We got it all - beautiful countryside and even more beautiful guitars.   Just a shame I can't afford one.  


If you are visiting Belfast again in the future you should try and make it in October when the Ards Guitar Festival is on.   Avalon open the doors of the factory for Tours......and the best bit is....the tour meets up at a pub.


 Keep strummin'.

Hi Billy love the bit about the socket set, nice one. The finish on the guitars in my pics is down to a C.F.Martin my one the flat bit of wood has'nt quite got to that stage yet. Chris.

Hi Billy.  Verithin I owned one in the early '70s it was mint with a case and I only paid £50 for it I wish I still had it. All my guitar makeing is from scratch I wanted to do it that way for my own satisfaction. Chris

Hi, you don't need a workshop to build a guitar the kitchen table will do mind you it can be tricky explaining away the fine covering of sawdust everywhere to the wife!! Chris
