Ken: The wider neck is fine! I have a 660/12, so I'm used to it to some extent. The only problem I seem to have is when I play a G - the E string wants to slip off the 3rd fret if I'm not careful. My Gibson SG is much the same.

Guess I'll just have to be more careful, eh??

How many does this make now, Aitch? 5, 6, 7? Seems you're adding about one every week or two.

Er.... 8, Stan (including the 4003 bass). That's the end of it for the time being, apart from the 360/6 I have on order. Perhaps I'll pick something up when I'm in the States next year.

Don't worry, Howard, you only have 5 more to catch up to me. Image
If you think all is going well, you've obviously overlooked something.

I won't be trying to catch up, Ron. I've been lucky enough to be able to acquire these and I'm more than happy with what I've got. Image

The competition for affection was stiff but the guitars won out. No pun intended. LOL.

That's OK Aitch the next one will surely appreciate all of your facets.

Thanks, Melissa and Brian. It's been shaky for a little while, so not entirely unexpected. The guitars was one of the issues.

Sorry, Rob, but I think there would be just too many problems........... Image
