    I wish I knew about your work before I gave John Gill my money, the juniors look lovely, and I've already sung your praise on the unique ness of the les paul style models, but with their own design. 

    Great work, when funds allow I'll be knocking on your door.

    Delighted for you mate - excellent !

    @Wazmeister Thanks for the kind words mate, really appreciated! 

    @Gassage Pleasure is all yours, sorry, mine... ;)

    @tone1 It was a pleasure to help out Tony! Hope she's still serving you well?

    @Keefy ....Definitely Not....although, they do sound particularly good through a Lightning....just saying'... ;)

    @hoops Thanks Hoops! really appreciated!

    @guitars4you Yes, still making the Fillmore, (I believe there's still a Shoreline Gold at @ATB_Guitars) but the Hurricane has taken off beyond my wildest expectations so I'll be building those for the foreseeable :) 

    @Hootsmon Cheers Hoots! :)

    Beautiful work! Do you have any plans to do a Hurricane Custom yet (a ‘Sea’ Hurricane, perhaps?!), or would I have to order one...? ;)

    There's an aged Black one in the works currently....on a tuxedo theme as it's #007.... but a Custom is certainly doable, no plans to add one to the line up at the moment but a one off would be no problem at all :)

    In between Hurricane builds, I've been working on a new model i'm tentatively calling The Dakota.

    Here's the neck heel detail...

    Two completely different woods, or just differently-coloured mahogany?

    Just different colours of Mahogany, the neck being Honduran, the body African :)

    Evening chaps!

    This has been getting quite a good reaction on my social media so far....

    I envisaged this one as the soul of a Firebird, sprinkled with a little nod to the Flying V and with a more ergonomic, manageable vintage Single Cut feel and came up with The Dakota!

    Bloody hell, those Dakota’s are fantastic! What finish is that on the green one - an aged Pelham, Inverness, or...?

    That’s an aged Pelham Blue - colour matched to a 1965 custom colour SG Junior I borrowed :)

    That is such a great idea, Pelham blue too. All the fun of a Firebird without any of the embarrassment : P
