I've just seen a Les Paul version for £85! It's already agreed as my birthday present, all I have to do now is choose the style (and get my practice amp back off of No 1 son).

First job will to be cut a block of alder to fill the space where the bridge pick up would normally live, fill the gaps, do a dry run constuction (make sure it all lines up, little trick is to use fishing line instead of a set of strings!!), put matches in the holes I want to keep, and get rubbing!! Might even have it in primer by this time next week........................... "Some scoundrel has taken the cork for my lunch" W.C Fields    Report
