Very sad indeed.
Awww Crap.
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
I remember seeing him in Pirates of Penzance , he made the show ...... sad at only 66.
Never really received all the accolades nor success he deserved. Great showman gone way too soon.
I only met him the once. A mate was doing an acoustic set at the Bald Rock pub in Rozelle. John lived somewhere nearby and dropped by for a beer.
It wasn't long until John joined in and a rollocking evening was had by all. By crickey he could sing and play.

I admit that I am an agent of Satan, however, my duties are largely ceremonial.

Apparently he used to live up our way as well Rabz. My older sister recalls that it wasn't uncommon to see him shopping at Hornsby.
