    good luck Muzza, as others have said if the colour of the binding isn't to your liking you can scrape it off. Maybe just do a test on a short piece of binding to see how it goes

    Hi Andy. I've still got 3 guitars hanging in my garage and haven't put a finger to any of them in probably 6 weeks or more...

    The prime reason for falling off my rocking horse and spitting out my dummy is that I totally lost my enthusiasm due to the time it took for the selected finishes to cure. If I ever make another guitar, I'll be using Feast Watson Proof stains and Tru-Oil. I can't see the logic in spending under an hour working on the guitar, then waiting 5 days to do another hour of work.

    I'll get back around to them shortly.

    Another distraction is that I've recently joined a band playing bass (lovin' it) and learning a sh#tload of new songs. We rehearse in my studio and when we also got a keyboard player, making us a 6 piece, we couldn't all fit in. Well, not comfortably, but VERY friendly...

    So quite a few weeks have been taken up moving the interior wall a metre into the workshop. A metre makes an incredible spatial difference. (all the other band members were "keen to help", but I reckon I only got about 8 man/hours help in total.)


    Before... 6 metres long by 3 metres wide. Plenty of space, but too narrow to move around... (Meaning... to get to the fridge!)

    After... Now it's 6 metres x 4 metres. I had to lose about a square metre (right hand foreground in the photo) because there's a roller door right behind and I need to be able to use it.

    (That's Eddy, the keyboard player.)

    Tons of room now...

    Wow. Thanks for the update Muzza. Yeah look I totally understand, waiting for the finishes etc.

    Very cool story and pics. I am very impressed. I'd love to be able to say, I'll just move that wall...then be able to do it.

    Its good to hear that you're jamming again.

    Theyre not all used at once, ya knob. They're located for immediate ease of access so there aren't leads all over the floor.

    I'm actually thinking of putting another one next to the Maton poster.
