Hi all

My name is John, I am a carpenter joiner by trade and have been making and repairing guitars for over 30 years. In 1996 I decided to learn how to make Acoustic guitars professionally, so I enrolled at the London Guildhall University for a two year BTEC HND course in Music Instrument Technology specialising in acoustic instruments, after successfully graduating from the course I was given the opportunity of staying on to complete a BSc Hons degree in the same subject. I am currently making and restring instruments on a part time basis.

If any forum members need any technical help feel free to contact me through the forums.

Best Regards,
John

Hi folks, I'm Harry from Kintyre in the Scottish Highlands. Where do you play bass up there I hear you ask ?. Well not to the sheep but at home. Moved up here a few years ago from Hayes in Middlesex. In a band playing the clubs around the area & in the big smoke. One of note would be the United Services Rendered Club in Chiswick..Met Tommy Cooper there & in a club in Harrow, played with Gary Wilmot. Still have my 60's Burns Wildcat & Sims Watt Amp with 4 lovely 15in speakers. As an aside, am "doing up" two basses. One an old Marlin & the other a Hohner Rockwood LX 90B...Great guns. A good site which I hope keeps going......Regards
