I tried calling the Tinnitus helpline but it just kept ringing.

I thoughtI'd give a quick update. I had my wrist op on Thursday, 17th September. All seems to have gone well. I had the dressings changed on last Tuesday and it looks like it's healing nicely. Considering the trauma to my arm, I only needed painkillers for the first three days. Next stop, 5th October for a review with my consultant. I'm looking forward to getting back into playing again in the next 5 or six weeks.

I've bought from here the following := MIM Fender Precision, Epiphone Vintage Pro Thunderbird, Ashdown ABM 500 2x12, Zoom B3, Omm cables. I could gig tomorrow using gear bought here. Brilliant site and market place.

Very nice Mark. It sounds sweet.

That looks stunning. How does it sound?

I'm in. I've lost my stash of them.

I played a charity gig at the Shepard's Bush Empire in the Late 90's I got the shivers at the soundcheck as Bowie played there the week before. After the set, I was in the dressing room and our promoter came in and said" I would like you meet my mate, he thinks You're a solid player." I was gobsmacked that his mate was Martin Turner from Wishbone Ash. We had a couple of beers together and he complemented me on be a tight player. Martin is one of my biggest influences having played in a Wishbone tribute band in the '70s.

I really like this. So melodic.

That's pretty dammed good. Well done.

OMg. That looks wonderful and I bet it plays and sounds fab too.

Very nice mark. Enjoy.

The one on the right looks like an angry pirate. I'd keep that one. Arrr.

All the best for a speedy recovery and I hope everything works as before.

Good luck for tomorrow and a speedy recovery.

That neck. Stunning.

That is a beauty Kevin.

Here's my two. A Crafted in Japan "62 RI Strat and a Crafter Electro Acoustic.

I'm the late night p!ssed kebab. You enjoyed it at the time but can't remember why in the morning.

I've not timed it but it's quite fast to charge.

I've been playing through mine again tonight with my Rick and let my missis have a listen on my PJ headphones. She was blown away by the quality after hearing me play through a Vox crappy thingy. I just love this bit of kit.

Sorry guys, going to have to pull out. I'm classed as a essential worker, I deliver bog rolls. I have to do a round trip from Cheshire to London on Friday. It means I won't get back until late Friday evening. I blame it on the panic buyers. Long may they suffer from ring rust.

I think Friday 3rd April would work better.

He's having a lay down to get over the thought of this thread.

I never got around to doing a review but I can say that I like it. It's a solid piece of kit, good volume, good tone control and light. I can give it a thumps up.
