Kubickiboy Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) In the words of Marvin Gaye, I've heard it through the grapevine that the man himself Jon Shuker will be appearing on ITV Yorkshire's Calendar news programme next Thursday 26th June. All about his guitar and bass building course and showing off his brand new workshop. Get tuning in. Sounds interesting. And you can see it on the ITV Local website for a week afterwards apparently.

Mike Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Cool, I'll check it out. Hopefully someone can post a link if we miss it. Quote

You know the ones, they stand in the background looking permanently distracted by something over the shoulder of the cameraman, but whenever the camera moves, they track it to the millimetre to ensure they stay in shot.

Bassmonster Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 cool, hopefully might get a sneaky peak at my bass Quote
mewsie Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 oooh how exciting! i don't have a tv though, so alas, no shuker-viewing pleasure for me. sheffield isn't far from here though.. x Quote
EntropicLqd Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Thanks for the heads up. I'll try and catch that. Quote
yorks5stringer Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 (edited) Just watched it here: [url="http://www.itvlocal.com/yorkshire/news/"]http://www.itvlocal.com/yorkshire/news/[/url] You then need " Latest News Bulletins", "Calendar South" and "Thursday 26th June" Look into last night's bulletin around 25mins 57 seconds I especially like "let's put that in there and that on top" (trussrod and fretboard)!!

NJE Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Cany find it! keeps asking for a password to get on the server. direct link anywhere? Quote
Finbar Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I followed OG's instructions and got there fine. It made me lol a bit "Now we'll put the electronics in" as she haphazardly throws a bunch of wires into the cavity, heh. Quote
yorks5stringer Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I've actually booked a build slot later in the year and I suspect it will be more "sweat" than the presenter appears to show. Nice looking Jazzer at the end mind.... Quote

peted Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 With all these Shuker builds going on in the Builds forum I'm surprised he's got time for TV spots Well done Jon! Great to see someone getting recognition and some advertising for the great work they do. Quote
