You are so lucky.
Just a short drive to Bristol, have a play around in Reverb whilst Eltham Jones sorts it for you

Ah, I've often wondered about where the many times recommended Eltham sits and sips his tea! :) - I'll update the luthiers section with his complete contact details :rolleyes:

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?

Yup Bristol and Brigend ...

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)

Didn't know thw Bailey's did guitars ..
Simon Kinkade is good too and Will at DrumBank on Gloucester Rd but Eltham's in a different league, IME.
