    Was planning to mention this to my wife in an off handed kind of way when I got home tonight to gauge the reaction.  There probably won't be any left by that time at this rate.
    ask forgiveness not permission!


    She's actually very good to me on guitars.  She's suggested I go on a Crimson course next year, which is £995 plus materials, hardware etc.  I was actually thinking of trying to build something in a Les Paul vein.

    These do look tempting at that price with the 0% offer though.

    Too busy for pics then, and the weights sound like a broad estimate.

    Bit of pot luck involved if buying!

    lol @Legionreturns - is that for your kids' birthday party business?

    Absolutely! 

    As far as my tax return is concerned...
    too right - £415 of that is VAT, get it back!
    I would be interested to hear any suggestions of how I could justify the purchase to my accountant and put it through my business books? 

    Photographic albums and books is my business if that helps make up something believable ;-)
    Now taking applications for zero hour freelance instructors  
    To be honest I have had a duvet day and have yet to turn my brain on so I don’t get what you mean? @Legionreturns ;

    If you're a freelance music teacher on paper... guitars are tools of the trade AND you're self employed

    Gentleman,

    the guitar guitar courier van is full!  =)


    Thank you for your order with us,

    I am sorry to say this but your guitar will be delayed by one day this will be with you by Thursday!

    The courier did not have enough space on the van today with the bank holiday back log and there has been a few items unable to go, 

    I am very sorry about this I do hope Thursday is okay if not I can upgrade this to Saturday or Sunday deliver free of charge if this is better for you 

    Kind Regards, 
    Emma
