    Gav Turner sadness

    Long time builder, forum contributor, Gav Turner has had an electrical fire and has had ALL his guitars damaged and/or destroyed.

    The entry from Thursday 16th February 2017 tells the sad tale.

    I feeled so gutted and hollowed out for the poor guy.

    My wishes for an easy and fast recovery for your building area and most importantly your guitars Gav.

    Totally agree Ozzie.

    Gav posted a similar one on this PBG forum too.

    I would be equally devastated if it happened to me. Hopefully insurance payout is significant enough to start all over again, even though that won't replace everything, hopefully there are some happy memories and images to look back on and use as inspiration moving forward.
