Nice.

Have you an authentic restoration in mind or some current tech in a classic body?

The Build Diaries may be of help in either case.

Every living room has to have a bonnet and a slab of chequerplate right?

I built a Ford Crossflow 1760cc in mine once. Over Christmas. I called it our 'festive engine'. The Mrs was not amused. Made good money on it though so every cloud..

Nice bass!

You'll probably need to join the Warwick forum for advice....it's also the Framus owners forum.

Thanks all. I love it. I'm intending keeping as much original as I can - providing it works and plays fine of course. It's in vgc, and I will be using it for tracks like 'The Lovecats', as it had the frets removed by a previous owner ( a vicar at one time apparently ! ). I will have false frets fitted. I'm not going to have it 'as new', but showing it's age. However, I've seen one with a black fretboard and I think it really suits it. So, maybe a quandry for me ; Black or original rosewood ? What do you think ?

P.s. Planemo. Lol. Actually it's pictured in our sunlounge, but I did rebuild my XR2 Mk2's cvh in our ( thankfully large ) kitchen. Wife was also not amused, particularly by the extended rebuild time !
