UNPLANNED DOWNTIME: 12th Oct 23:45
What's Hot
Just got the go ahead to put some pics up of Keith's guitars. He has no website, not even FB, doesn't even understand text, so anybody want to get in touch PM me and I will send his number as opposed to posting his home number here ok.
First off Keith is left handed, so soon as he finishes a guitar he brings it round, to my house where if it's an acoustic
I will just have a play, but if it's electric I will wire it all up. Always uses decent pots caps and switches, switch craft jacks etc
This guitar was built for me, brief was a LPJnr/PRS type if thing for slide and Open G tuning.
Love it. He builds it from planks, even his relics are built from old wood he has had for years drying out.
Start off with the one I bought, he calls it a Shiska ? Extra thick neck on it for me.

Keith does not do the hard sell and say his guitars are the best etc, but he builds the guitars not assembles them as some do. A lot of the old Ash and Alder he has, he has had from his old house, in fact ever since I have known him (about 25-30years) as he stopped making electrics, and just built acoustics and Mandolins. The Pickups are from his niece's husband/partner which are called Little Willies! Seem pretty damn good to me.
Bringing that one up to show, it was the only way we would let Keith come up with us!
