Just a short drive to Bristol, have a play around in Reverb whilst Eltham Jones sorts it for you [url="http://www.edgeguitarservices.co.uk/index.htm"]http://www.edgeguitarservices.co.uk/index.htm[/url] Quote

Anyway its my Ostinato custom..I cant get any decent volume out of the higher register..At high volume E A and the lower D are ok, but i go to pop the G and i cant hear a sausage? Quote

lozbass Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 I don't know your region, but as the problem is clearly causing considerable disquiet, I'd be tempted to jump on an off-peak train to London and get myself over to see Martin at the Gallery (Camden's only a 20 minute walk from Euston/Kings Cross) Quote
Rich Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Either the Bailey Bros or Simon Kincade, all in Bristol. Quote
